About Willamette Valley Oral Surgery
Willamette Valley Oral Surgery provides dental care on Church Street Southeast in the Central Area area of Salem, Oregon. Periodontics is the specialty focused on the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, handling more advanced gum disease, related surgical treatment, and — in many practices — dental implant placement, which sits naturally alongside that training.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.
Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

I can’t express my gratitude that I have with this clinic and all the staff that work there. My procedure taking out my wisdom tooth was fantastic from the doctor who explained and Patiently did everything super easy through the assistant I loved the way they treat their patients. I highly recommended Thank you Dr sincerely Sandy C
I want to share my experience regarding an appointment at this dental clinic. M.H., a 12-year-old girl in significant pain, was referred to this clinic by her regular dentist. I often assist this family with in-person English translation in our city and over the phone for appointments in other cities, including helping them understand procedures and communicating with nurses and dentists. On this occasion, they scheduled an appointment and drove one hour to the clinic. However, the clinic refused to see the child and one of her parents because they could not provide an official interpreter, and my offer to assist over the phone was not accepted. The staff’s behavior was neither friendly nor understanding, and the refusal appeared to be based on the dentist’s personal decision rather than the patient’s urgent situation. Despite the child being in considerable pain, the clinic did not accommodate the family, resulting in a few days of unnecessary pain before they were able to secure a referral to another city for care.
Dear Dr Eyre and all your staff, thank you so much for all your help on February 2. I was terrified about my situation and your whole entire staff and you helped me and made everything feel so safe and reassuring. I can never thank you all enough. Thank you for everything.
BIG THANKS TO MISS RUTHY! SHE ABSOLUTELY GETS 5 STARS! AND SO DOES MY DR! SHE GOT MY MOLAR OUT IN ONE GO😁 5 STARS!
Outstanding experience from start to finish. Professional, clean, and friendly. Definitely recommend and will be going there for all my dental needs. Also a shout out to Dr. Yisi Ji and her assistant!
My daughter was terrified of dental procedures. Dr. Ji was amazing with her and put her at ease. They quickly got us in and taken care of. My daughter even said she would go back to get the other teeth done. I fully recommend this office. The office staff was also wonderful.
I recently had a dental emergency that made me need their services. Everyone from front office staff to the back brought me a great deal of peace with their calm and helpful approach. And they were able to help me quickly and efficiently. Thank you so much!
My daughter came in for a tooth extraction. She was very nervous and was immediately calmed by the doctor and his staff. They were all very friendly understanding and patient making sure she felt comfortable before anything happened. My daughter was shocked when the procedure was over and how fast it took.
