About Me
A quick introduction — read the full story on my About page.
Dr. Macaelan Hanrahan, DMD
Family & Restorative DentistTrained at the University of Oregon and OHSU, with a conservative, preserve-first approach shaped by a personal connection to saving natural teeth.
Meet Dr. Hanrahan →Understand your options. Feel comfortable with your care.
I want you to understand what I'm seeing and why I'm recommending treatment. We'll look at your options together, including what we can monitor and what needs attention now.
My approach is to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible. Sometimes that means a small repair. Sometimes it means keeping an eye on a concern and checking it again at a planned visit. Either way, I'll explain the reasoning and make time for your questions.
