Meet Ryan Donnelly, DMD

Dr. Donnelly is the east side’s hometown dentist.  He grew up in the David Douglas school district, received his Bachelors from Portland State University, and graduated from Oregon Health Sciences School of Dentistry as one of their most awarded students in 2005.  He is dedicated to creating personalized dental care plans for each of his patients and makes an extra effort to listen to what his patient’s personal dental goals are rather than treating each person with the same formula of care. 

Dr. Donnelly has received extensive additional training in oral and IV sedation and is certified to administer these valuable anti-anxiety methods to patients who need a little more help with their dental visits.  He has performed surgeries and restored hundreds of dental implants over the years as well as removed as many wisdom teeth using these techniques.  Some patients have even taken advantage of his skills with sedation to get through simpler dental visits and avoid things such as their uncomfortable anxiety or uncontrollable gag reflex.

Dr. Donnelly is a member of the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honors Society that is only awarded to the nation’s top 5% of dentists upon graduation.  Dr. Donnelly has received recognition from the Academy of Dental Materials and the American Association of Endodontics. He is also a member of the Academy of General Dentistry, American Dental Association, Clackamas County Dental Society, and the Oregon Dental Association. Additionally, Dr. Donnelly was recognized as a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry.

Not only does he live in the community he serves, but his family is a part of it as well.  He is a proud husband and father of two. He enjoys spending time with his amazing kids, being outdoors, camping, hunting, fishing, in addition to riding quads and his dual sport motorcycle. Dr. Donnelly has his pilot’s license, and also enjoys watching NFL and college football games when the Blazers aren’t on.
