I became an orthodontist because I wanted to bring a healthy and happy smile to each of my patients. When I am able to give them the ability to smile with confidence, I know I've made a positive change in their lives. That's what being an orthodontist is all about. Thank you for choosing Ainslie Orthodontics.

Services
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
The heart of our mission is to find opportunities to show our clients how their own efforts make orthodontic treatment the best that it can be. I grew up in the Portland area and enjoy working with people in the community. I graduated from Portland State University in 1979 with a BS in biology.
Dental school kept me close to home as well; I earned a Doctorate of Dental Medicine at Oregon Health Sciences University, and graduated with honors in 1983.Orthodontic specialty training took me to Northwestern University in Chicago. I opened the Portland office in 1985, and as my family grew, we decided to build a second office near my home in West Linn.

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! I was nervous when I found out that I needed braces again. After the struggles I faced the first time and being in my late 20s, I was afraid of all the work.
We understand your need to receive treatment in a practice where you feel comfortable, safe, and welcome. Please feel free to schedule an appointment, or stop by for a complete tour of our practice. You will get to meet our team, walk through our office and treatment areas, and learn more about the treatments we provide.

Dr. Ainslie and his staff are simply great! I have no problem recommending them to anyone needing Ortho. Dr. Ainslie and staff listen to their patients and try their best to make everyone comfortable. He has a great working relationship with other doctors making any complicated procedures easy and less stressful. I don't give 5 star ratings easily but they earn it!

Dr Ainslie’s office is the absolute best. The team is friendly, professional and well experienced. My boys (ages 9 and 11) LOVE going to their appointments and will totally chat it up with Dr Ainslie and the team like they’re old friends. It cracks me up! But I love that Dr Ainslie takes the time to explain treatment plans and appointment details to both my kiddos and I. I can see that it makes my boys feel really included and it’s a huge confidence booster for them. My oldest used to be very nervous about dental appointments and his tolerance level was pretty low. But Dr Ainslie and the

I have been in treatment with Dr. Ainslie for the last 16 months. I’m continuously impressed with everyone in the office and actually look forward to my monthly appointments. They always answer my questions and are very transparent about my progress. As an adult in braces I was worried about how this was going to impact my life, but I feel more confidant than ever with my changing smile.

I had a consultation with Dr. Anslie to evaluate me for braces in preparation for orthognathic (jaw) surgery for TMJ disorder. He and his assistant patiently answered all of my questions and then some! I left the consultation with more knowledge than I had ever found online about TMJ. Dr. Ainslie also confirmed that I had a condition called tongue thrust in addition to TMJ, and gave me some tiny rubber bands to take home to help me train my tongue to not push against my teeth. Although I ultimately chose not to have the braces put in as my insurance wouldn't cover the surgery, my visit was valuable

Dr. Ainslie and his crew are fabulous. They are so patient and kind with my squirrelly child and help him understand the process and what's happening. Employee Arrow is the best. Actually, we've never had a poor experience (there was the one time they were playing country music, but today they were back to something better ). Dr. Ainslie has also suggested procedures to be done by his regular dentist to make future ortho work go smoother and be less expensive for us. I appreciate his integrity!
