Detailed Introduction

O'Brien Dentistry is a well-established dental practice with locations in University Place (Tacoma) and Olympia, Washington. The clinic operates with a patient-centered approach, aiming to provide a warm, friendly, and professional environment for all dental needs. The team at O'Brien Dentistry is committed to utilizing the latest technology and techniques in dentistry to deliver high-quality care. The practice is led by Dr. Carol O'Brien, who is deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest, having received her Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from Washington State University and her Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the University of Washington. Dr. O'Brien is dedicated to continuous education, participating in various dental study clubs, including The Dental Collegium Study Club, a local Spear Study Club, and the Tacoma Implant Study Group. She also maintains memberships with the Pierce County Dental Society, the Washington State Dental Society, and the American Dental Association, ensuring she remains updated on the latest advancements in dental technology and practices, particularly in aesthetics and dental cosmetics. Joining Dr. O'Brien is Dr. Althea Acosta, who earned her Bachelors in Biology and Chemistry and her Doctor of Dental Surgery from Indiana University. Dr. Acosta served in the United States Army, providing oral healthcare to servicemen and women at Joint Base Lewis McChord, and continues her commitment to patient care at O'Brien Dentistry. She is passionate about lifelong learning and brings skills in Bioclear and Injection Overmolding to the practice. O'Brien Dentistry offers a wide range of services designed to address various dental concerns. These include general dentistry such as routine check-ups, cleanings, and oral cancer screenings. They provide restorative treatments like fillings (including replacing old amalgam fillings with tooth-colored composites), crowns, and bridges. For missing teeth, they offer dental implants, often considered the most ideal and fixed replacement option. Cosmetic dentistry services are also a significant part of their offerings, including teeth whitening, and procedures aimed at enhancing smile aesthetics. The clinic also handles dental emergencies and focuses on preventative care and patient education to maintain long-term oral health. Their philosophy emphasizes "dental health care" over "disease care." Patients consistently praise O'Brien Dentistry for its professional, friendly, and accommodating staff, as well as the gentle and thorough care provided by the doctors. Testimonials highlight the comfortable atmosphere, the team's commitment to patient understanding, and the excellent results achieved, particularly with cosmetic procedures and addressing issues like TMJ. The clinic also adheres strictly to sterilization and cross-contamination processes recommended by leading dental organizations.

These guys are great. They truly care about the health of your mouth and are highly competent. But in a world where everything medical is becoming less ‘human’ oriented this practice has a family practice feel that is rarely felt anymore. Highly recommend

By far the best dentist I’ve ever experienced! The team at O’Brien Dentistry communicates every step of the process, ensuring I always feel informed and at ease. Their professionalism and genuine care for patient comfort truly stand out. I’ve been a patient for maybe 20 or more years now, and I have consistently recommended this practice to my entire family, friends and even strangers which speaks volumes about their commitment to quality care.

I’ve never had a bad visit, and highly recommend O’Brien Dentistry to anyone in need of dental services! Thank you Dr. O’Brien and team, you are the best!

Excellent team - great care and willing to work out difficult situation!!! My second 2 hour visit was even better!! In the consult I explained due to past poor experiences I have high anxiety when in the chair. Dr O’Brien took the time to listen and adjust her procedure as we went along.

I left with an incredible experience and not avoiding the thought of future appointments- which I need due to lots of unattended dental care. Highly, highly recommend!

First of all, the location is very accessible, with plenty of parking spaces available. Upon entering the building, you'll notice a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Lori is incredibly nice and makes you feel at ease.

I've had three different dental hygienists since I started coming to this place due to my frequently changing schedule. All of them have been friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable in their work. Thank you to all the employees at O'Brien Dentistry!
