New York City, New York Oct 11, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - A skilled dentist, Dr. Hester has practiced general dentistry at Bend Family Dentistry for more than 20 years. He is passionate about helping people achieve beautiful, healthy smiles. He opened his first private practice in Portland in 1988 and practiced there until 1994 when he moved back to his roots in Central Oregon.
Bend Family Dentistry offers general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and preventive dental care to residents of Bend, Oregon, and surrounding areas. They offer sedation dentistry for patients that may experience anxiety or fear about visiting the dentist. They also offer sleep apnea treatments and TMJ disorder therapies.
Academically, Dr. Hester’s interest in dentistry began at an early age deciding on dentistry as a career in 7th grade. His college years were spent at the University of Portland, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. He won a scholarship to play baseball at the University and was voted Most Valuable Player as well as achieving the Highest Batting Average award during his senior season. He went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland, Oregon.
Distinguished as a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (FICOI), he invests hundreds of hours each year enhancing his skills and keeping up to date on advances in the dental field. He has studied with some of the world’s leading authorities in dentistry including Dr. Peter Dawson and The Pankey Institute (reconstructive dentistry), Dr. David Hornbrook (esthetics), Dr. Carl Misch (implants), and Dr. Ken Reed & William Gottschalk (IV sedation).
Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.
On a more personal note, Dr. Hester is married to his wife of 33 years, Kelly, who works as an RN at Volunteers in Medicine. Together, they have five grown children and two dogs. In his free time, he enjoys outdoor activities, fine woodworking, and most recently building and racing Baja off-road cars.
