Five Pines Dental
Richard Zeller, DDS:
Practice Profile Page

I’ve been going to Five Pines for a couple of years. Everyone is super friendly, my hygienist does a great job cleaning my teeth and is fun to chat with (despite the awkwardness of having tools in my mouth the whole time). Office is bright, clean and welcoming, plus the background music is a catchy, curated playlist. They just need to open a location on the east side now that we all work from home 😉

I’ve always hated the dentist……… Until now!!! It had been years.. multiple years since I forced myself to go to the dentist, and I only did… because adulting… I read reviews for this dental office which were amazing! Plus its located right by my office! my first visit I was SUPER nervous but it was just X-rays and such to see where I was at. Dr. Zeller came to a plan for me and we moved forward…fast forward to part 1 of my 2 part appointments… I was freaked out. NEEDLES, and Scraping noises, and suction noise… OH MY! but it was not bad at all Stephanie was awesome! (she’s the hygienist) Shes sweet, caring, gentle, and tells you step by step what she is doing, she helped calm me down, and was a real joy! now my second appt is in less than 2 weeks and I am not scared 1 bit!… it really takes the right kind of people to be doing this work. This is the best place I have ever been, and now am confident to go on a regular bases! The ladies that work at the front are super sweet too! Thanks so much team!

Dr. Zeller and his team are amazing!!! The entire staff is friendly and helpful, the office is gorgeous and clean, and Dr. Zeller is extremely thorough and gentle.  I have had several fillings now, and each one has been completely pain free.  I have struggled with fear of going to the dentist over the past several years, but these guys have completely changed my attitude.  So glad to have found them!

We just moved to Portland and I found Five Pines through a friends recommendation. Everyone there was so friendly and welcoming. The receptionist was smiley and didn’t make me feel like a dunce for struggling to find the location. Anthony, my dental hygienist was hilarious, gentle, and full of interesting and entertaining oral facts. Dr. Zeller was personable, positive, and encouraging with a sense of humor that made being at the dentist actually enjoyable- those things are not usually synonymous. The aesthetic of the office was modern and welcoming, a nice upgrade from the traditional dentists offices I’ve been to in the Midwest. Also, their early morning appointment accommodated my 9-5 and I liked the the new patient special. Next, their covid precautions made me feel comfortable. Lastly, their was well audible good music playing the whole time, not your old school dentists elevator tunes but rock. Surprisingly pleased with the experience considering it was the dentist, and I’m no more of a fan than the next person.

Seriously the best dentistry I’ve ever been to. Had two upper wisdom teeth taken out and a filling. It didn’t take long from the moment I walked in. They remembered who I was and greeted me with a genuine smile. Super down-to-earth people that really care about you oral health. The mid-century modern atmosphere is always comfortable. Coava coffee, heated messaging chairs, clean, modern, and nice staff. Nothing more I could ask for.

Ok, so I’ve had a few different dentists in my life after moving around a bit. I won’t lie and say I’ve seen bad dentists, but I’ve been to some real mediocre places, and I’ve been to some nicer places. Five Pines Dental is superb. Their office is spectacularly clean, and very relaxing due to all the natural wood (can you believe Dr. Zeller did all of the woodwork??). The staff couldn’t have been nicer, even playing along with my little “preferred name” joke (Lord Bumbleberry– stupid, but they thought it was funny). Their implementation of COVID-19 precautions was amongst the best I’ve seen, so you can be confident that you will be safe there as long as you stick to the guidelines and give other patients their space (easy to do with their social distance floor markers). Zeller was kind and compassionate, just like everyone else on the staff. Overall, it was an excellent experience!

Best experience I have ever had with a dental office hands down. I was recommended here by a coworker and got in quickly for a routine exam. The technology they use is stellar and I felt very well taken care of all around. They went above and beyond teaching me things (that I probably should already know haha) and I really appreciate the small details like the goodie bag at the end. Friendly staff that works hard to get your insurance costs pinned down before any other appointments are made. I’m going back in three months and I’m not even dreading it one bit 🙂 Highly recommend Five Pines to anyone.

I’ve been going here since they opened. The whole staff is great! Everyone is friendly and clearly communicates. Their whole setup is pretty high tech, from the iPads for medical forms, to the X-ray machines built into the walls between the rooms. The chairs are also quite comfortable. The office is easy to get to if you don’t have to worry about parking. And I’ve never waited more than a few minutes in their lobby before getting started (it may help that I always schedule my appointments in the morning). It’s right on multiple max and bus lines. All in all, every experience I’ve had here has been great (all 6 or so visits). I highly recommend this dental office!

I cannot say enough positive things about my dental experience at Five Pines Dental. Dr. Zeller explain each step without too much jargon and when he had to use jargon he explained that too. Isabel was wonderful when setting up the appointment and handling insurance. Brittany, who assisted Dr. Zeller, explained cost to me and checked in before doing anything that might be uncomfortable. I have been scared to go to the dentist in the past but I don’t think that will be the case with Five Pines and Dr. Zeller!!!
