We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
Outside of the office, I like spending time with my family and supporting all of their activities. I'm a graduate of OHSU. I have worked as a hygienist for more than 15 years and have been with Glen Creek Dental for at least a decade. I'm also an instructor at the Oregon Tech Dental Hygiene Program at Chemeketa Community College.

Services
To me, being a dentist is about promoting oral health for my patients and treating them the way I would want to be treated. I strive to interact with all patients with sincerity and respect, while looking out for their best interests and helping them progress to oral health and maintaining it for a lifetime.
Dr. James E. Shelton, Dr. Jordan Peterschmidt, and the Glen Creek Dental team do more than fix teeth and enhance smiles. We care about you as a person and want only the best for you. We've been honored to serve our Salem-area friends and neighbors since 1999, with the practice growing through referrals.
Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, and high-quality dental care. We understand that you or your child may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while we provide the best possible care.
The cost of your treatment will vary, depending on your individual needs and treatment plan. We will discuss the cost of your treatment and each of your available payment options with you before you begin, so you can make the best choice for yourself. Your smile is yours forever, and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to receive the best dental care when you need it.
If you'd like to share some kind words and smiles, please ask our front desk staff for a comment card at your next appointment. We'd love to hear about your experience! Shelton and all of his staff are wonderful! I wouldn't choose to go anywhere else. They are professional, courteous, and fun to hang out with while getting your teeth worked on.

First impressions are important then the follow through is the real test. Glen Creek Dental’s staff was welcoming and professional. When I left after my first appointment I felt like a long time patient. All my questions were addressed very thoroughly and procedures explained clearly. Thumbs up !!

Amazing experience, from the front desk (shout out to the amazing Cindy) to the hygienist (Amazing Courtney) to Dr.Shelton I felt very comfortable going during this covid time, not only did they follow hand sanitizing and masks and even had a clean and dirty pen area but I went right to my chair and they did x-rays and everyyhing from one spot! My cleaning was thorough and Dr.Shelton even took an extra minute to quickly fix a crown that was done years ago from a different dentist and now I am comfortable with my tooth again! I am now switching my family over (kids included) to Glen Creek! Thank

I have been going to this office for over 10 years now. The office staff is friendly and super personable. The hygienist have been very nice though we do have our personal favorites after years of building relationships. Dr Shelton has done good work when we have the need for more than just a cleaning and exam.
