Your Powell Dentists

Dr. Jesse Gridley, DMD
General Dentist
Dr. Gridley grew up in the beautiful north woods of Minnesota, where he originally studied to be a physician like his grandfather. Then he lived in both China and Japan for over half a decade, and taught English to university students and learned to speak Mandarin and Japanese. Still passionate about helping others, Dr. G found that dentistry held the depth of service he had been looking for in medicine, with even more of an ability to take good care of patients.
Dr. Gridley moved to Oregon and completed his DMD at Oregon Health and Sciences University, and has since been through several post graduate courses in different fields of dentistry. In 2009, his grandfather Dr. John Gridley, Sr. passed away at age 99, but not before telling Dr. G how glad he was that his grandson chose dentistry as his path to serve the community.
His emphasis on patient comfort and education, as well as keeping up-to-date with the latest advancements in dentistry, enable him to provide his patients with the best quality of care in the field. Dr. Gridley has a wide range of experience in different areas of dentistry, from cosmetic and restorative dentistry to surgical treatments and root canal treatments.
His approach to your treatment begins with patiently listening to you. Then after a complete and thorough examination, he reviews and discusses the diagnosis and all treatment options with you, and takes the time to answer any questions you may have. Dr. G finds great enjoyment in being able to build relationships and have a positive impact in the health and confidence of his patients.

Our patients say it best
“Such an amazing group of staff. I’ve had bad dental experiences in the past, and after that I avoided going to the dentist for years. When I discovered Roots Dental I started taking my oral health seriously, because I had finally found a judgment-free dental office that helped me instead of making me feel bad about my cavities. I have now been going to Roots Dental for the past 3 or 4 years, and now look forward to going to the dentist! 10/10 recommend!”
Zaria R.
