MEET THE ORTHODONTISTS: A LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE

Working alongside his father, Dr. Terry Dischinger, until his retirement in 2015, Dr. Bill honed his skills and deepened the fatherson bond that was central to their practice. A proud Lake Oswego High School and Oregon State University graduate, Dr. Bill earned his DMD from Oregon Health & Science University and completed his orthodontic training at Tufts University. Known for his expertise and passion, Dr. Bill has lectured worldwide and authored numerous publications. His dedication to the latest advancements in orthodontics ensures that patients receive state-of-the-art care.
Dr. Sara Edmondson brings a fresh perspective and a wealth of knowledge to the team. A board certified orthodontist, she earned her Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Oregon Health & Science University and completed advanced training in Orthodontics and dentofacial Orthopedics at the University

Dr. Je! Sessions, a native Oregonian, has been a trusted name in orthodontics for over 30 years.
