I'm from Tualatin, and I recently moved to Salem. I did alot of research when I was shopping around for a new dentist. I've heard alot of great things about Riverbend dental.

The staff are very friendly. and professional this office is very clean I'm impressed. Dr. Wallace is very personable, knowledgeable, and he made me feel very comfortable.

"If I were a betting man, I'd bet there's 0% chance there's an infection" - Dr. James Means Jr…read more And if I were a betting man, I'd put my life on Dr. James Means Jr. being a clown who fully believes he's a hotshot dentist. Came in with a swollen face and throbbing pain. Super concerned of an infection. Doc does an xray-- gives me that juicy quote above-- and orders a tooth cleaning. Completely ignores my concerns- the obvious facial swelling and the huge sac of pus growing larger and larger in the spot I literally point to. Nah, it's nothing, bruh. Trust me, bruh. I come in the next day for a cleaning. The hygienist is great. She's very very concerned about that ever-growing lump on my gum though. Her and the receptionists both tell me to call in the next day if I experience further swelling and throbbing pain. Of course, this happened. I call in the next day. Infections like this can be life-threatening, but instead Dr. Clown ignores this... he tries to sell me a mouth guard instead. Basically tells me to kick rocks and that I'm wrong. I have to advocate with the receptionist.... pleading that I think I need drainage. I'm worried there's a deeper infection. She tells me the doctor won't budge and to try to go elsewhere. So I do. I'm able to get a second opinion at the Gentle Dental LANCASTER. The dentist there is extremely concerned with the swelling and now-massive lump. They perform an immediate drainage. Tons of pus. They suspect a deeper infection and refer me to an oral surgeon for a 3d scan of the area. This is exactly what I was advocating for. I'm not a genius... this was all pretty straight forward common sense. I feel bad for the amazing staff at Gentle Dental West Salem. They're great, and they have to deal with this alleged "dentist". If you're part of that staff- and you're reading this- please know that Dr. Clown will bring you down. If you have a patient who is advocating for themselves- then please listen to them. Know that Dr. Clown is who he is. I'd give this review 0 stars if I could, but it's 1 star for you guys.

Awful experience! Arrived 15 minutes early then subsequently listened to the receptionists making…read morefun of someone trying to find their way out of the oddly designed parking lot. Either that or the one receptionist was telling the other a story that was simply inappropriate for the setting. I get it might be humorous to talk about and/or watch some poor fool driving around the parking lot, but how intelligent are you to think we all out in the waiting room feel the same way!? This wasn't the bad part! That was being brought back, getting my x-rays done then just left in the chair FOR AN HOUR!! I timed it!! For any of you who think that's no big deal I would challenge you to sit in one place for that long, not being checked on and/or being given an ETA for the dentist! I get we're all busy, but I too have a job Mr dentist and I too have to budget my time! So, I walked out. 20 minutes later I got a call from a very disinterested receptionist asking if I was coming back. No apologies, nothing. Just, "They just wanted me to give you a call..." Good Lord! So, in summary, I sat or was expected to sit in a dentist chair for almost an hour and a half without anyone caring enough to stop by and explain. Their only concern, where'd the $$$$ go!? I doubt it, they'll just bill my insurance for doing nothing!

With zero amounts of irony, Dr. Bateman has quite literally changed my life…read more I have been terrified of the dentist since I was eight. To the point where even as I child I was having panic attacks. Every dentist I had treated me like a scared little kid even up until adult hood. So I stopped going. My fillings needed replaced, I had a cracked tooth, I had a cavity or two, and I was letting my mouth go to hell all because of my fear. But then I found this office, and everything changed. Dr. Bateman and his staff treated my anxiety seriously. They offered sedation methods that calmed me down to the point of WANTING to get treatment done. They have been patient, kind, and extremely accommodating. Not only can I eat normally again, but my smile looks better than ever and I have a new confidence I lost for years. If any of this sounds like you and your experiences: don't hesitate. You won't regret your time with this team.

He will NOT "shame" you for being lax on your cleanings (like I was) and doesn't ask you questions with his hands in your mouth. I had a filling done yesterday and it was smooth sailing. His office only uses composite (the white resin) so no nasty mercury fillings. The numbing shot did not hurt at all and the drill is so much quieter than it was a few years ago. He explained what he was going to do before he did it and what it would feel like. I know most people might not need that but I definitely get anxious during dental visits. Long story short, I'm not afraid of the dentist anymore! I can't wait to go back to get my other filling done and get started on my clear aligners. Plus free whitening for life!

So glad I found Dr. Young.

Everyone in the entire office is friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel right at home. This is the type of dentist who doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth and have you in fear of going back to the dentist for future visits. I can say without hesitation that Dr. Young is world's better than the last dentist I was seeing in Keizer (Shorview Dental). I also very much appreciate the fact that they can see me on short notice, whereas my dentist in Keizer told me it could be 3-4 months just for an appointment to get a cavity filled (ridiculous). I can't recommend Dr. Young highly enough! If you're looking for the best dentist in Salem, this is it!
