Periodontal Therapy for Hillsboro and Beyond
June 4, 2013
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health conditions facing patients. According to some estimates, as much as 80% of American adults have some form of the disease. But gum disease isn’t just an oral health concern. Recent medical studies have also connected it to health conditions in other parts of the body, including heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, preterm birth, and more.
What does this mean for you and your family?
It means that regular checkups with The Dentists at Orenco Station should be a priority. During a checkup, Dr. Brandon Kearbey or Dr. Malinda Kearbey will look closely at the soft tissues of your gums and at your teeth to see if there have been any changes in your oral health. Symptoms of gum disease include bleeding or swollen gums and discoloration.
If our Hillsboro dental team finds any sign of gum disease, we’ll help you treat it with a personalized periodontal therapy treatment plan. There are many effective periodontal therapies to treat symptoms of gum disease, including deep cleaning, which combines scaling and root planning. During your appointment with Dr. Brandon Kearbey or Dr. Malinda Kearbey, we’ll talk to you about your treatment options and explain how each aspect of periodontal therapy works. We can also answer any questions you might have about your care.

Comprehensive Restorative Dentistry Services for Hillsboro and Beyond
April 30, 2013
You work hard to care for your smile, but sometimes even the best smile needs a little extra help. That’s why Dr. Brandon Kearbey and Dr. Malinda Kearbey of The Dentists at Orenco Station offer a wide array of today’s best restorative dentistry services. Whether you need help with a filling, want a straighter smile, or have one or more teeth that need to be replaced, our Hillsboro dental office can help.
Our restorative dentistry services include:
- Tooth-colored fillings
- Porcelain crowns
- Root canal therapy
- ClearCorrect
- Bridges, partials, and dentures
- Dental implants
With a consultation appointment, Dr. Brandon Kearbey and Dr. Malinda Kearbey will help you understand your options and put together a personalized treatment plan to help you meet your desired goals.
Sometimes delivering restorative care is as simple as filling a cavity. Other times, more extensive care may be needed. With dental implants, patients with one or more missing teeth can enjoy natural appearance and functionality again. That’s because dental implants are structured like teeth, with a crown on top and a prosthetic root underneath that anchors the new tooth to the jaw.
Regardless of what restorative service you need, our Hillsboro team will answer any questions you might have about the services we recommend. We don’t want any patient to agree to a treatment plan they don’t understand. We’ll listen to your concerns and explain exactly how we’ll be able to help you. That way, you can leave our office feeling confident that you’re getting the help you need.

Our Hillsboro Cosmetic Dentistry Options
April 4, 2013
Do you wish you had a more beautiful, more confident smile? At The Dentists of Orenco Station, Dr. Brandon Kearbey and Dr. Malinda Kearbey can provide effective cosmetic care with some of today’s best cosmetic dentistry services.
Dr. Brandon and Dr. Malinda commit themselves to advanced continuing education in the areas of cosmetic dentistry and reconstructive dentistry. They continue to be trained through Spear Education, a leader in the field. After many hours of study at home, Drs. Brandon and Malinda traveled to the Spear Center in Scottsdale, AZ for an intensive hands-on course. They are also involved in a local Spear Study Club that compliments the other aspects of this education. Through this always ongoing process, they are able to provide you with the best possible care available.
Our services include:
- Teeth whitening
- Porcelain veneers
- Smile makeovers
- ClearCorrect
Using one or more of these, we can help you eliminate embarrassing stains, hide chips or cracks, and straighten misaligned teeth.
Of the cosmetic dentistry services we offer, teeth whitening is one of the most popular. That’s partly because staining is something we all have to face. Many stains are caused by regular, everyday things like coffee, tea, red wine, or soda. Other things that can contribute include tobacco use, aging, and even some medications.
Dr. Brandon Kearbey and Dr. Malinda Kearbey offer two whitening solutions for Hillsboro patients to take advantage of: in-office and take-home teeth whitening. Both can deliver professional results in a way that’s convenient for patients.
Porcelain veneers are also popular for their ability to whiten teeth, in addition to hiding flaws like cracks or chips. The porcelain veneers process takes at least two visits and yields results that look natural and will last for years to come with proper care.
Finally, ClearCorrect is both a restorative and cosmetic dentistry service that uses invisible braces to move teeth into their ideal alignment. With teeth correctly aligned, patients can enjoy improved confidence and better oral health.

What Is Family Dentistry?
January 31, 2013
When you talk about family dentistry, you’re talking about two things. On the one hand, you’re talking about a group of services that includes checkups, cleanings, and more. But you’re also talking about more than that. Dentists like Dr. Brandon and Malinda Kearbey are concerned about meeting the needs of busy families. With everything that you have to worry about, finding a dental office that can help your whole family shouldn’t be one of them.
Every family dental visit at our Hillsboro dental office includes a comprehensive oral exam. We’ll take an X-ray of your teeth, check for signs of gum disease or tooth decay, and even perform an oral cancer screening. Following your exam, a professional cleaning will help us remove tartar from your gum line, and eliminate plaque and bacteria.
If we find anything during your or your child’s appointment that needs to be treated, Dr. Kearbey will propose a custom-made treatment plan. We can also answer any questions you might have about brushing and flossing at home. Regular visits for your family are important, but caring for your teeth in between visits is just as important. We would be happy to offer you and your children homecare tips while you’re with us.
Are you ready to schedule a checkup for yourself or your little one? Call The Dentists at Orenco Station today for your appointment. Dr. Brandon and Malinda Kearbey are proud to serve patients from Hillsboro, Forrest Grove, Beaverton, Cornelius, and Rock Creek.
