General Dentist

Dr. Jacob Kaufman grew up in Newberg, Oregon.

After OSU, Dr. Kaufman earned his DMD at Oregon Health and Science University, where he served as class president. Dr. Kaufman is passionate about making patients feel comfortable in the dental office. His focus is to create a dental home for his patients where they can accomplish their dental goals.

Dr. Kaufman lives near the Roots Dental Office with his Partner Jan, and their two dogs Dillard (after Damian Lillard) & Olive. He loves to get outdoors backpacking and camping. On the weekends you’ll likely find him at a concert listening to live music in Portland.

He is devoted to honing his craft through continuing education and regularly takes CE courses as a member of Spear Education. Dr. Kaufman loves providing high-quality dental care to his local community.

  • If I could have dinner with one person, dead or alive it would be… Patrick Gass, a family member who was on the Oregon Trail.
  • When I wake up the first thing I do or think about is… Walk the dogs!
  • If I could remake any movie and star in it, it would be… The Departed.
