Hillside Dental Care
Elise Braxmeyer, DMD:
Practice Profile Page

I was visiting my children in Beaverton and had a dental emergency recently. I contacted Hillside and was seen immediately. I had opportunity to meet both doctors. I was extremely impressed with not only the doctors but the entire staff. Everyone was so friendly and professional. Patients are greeted by name and seated promptly. The office is clean and cozy. I would highly recommend this office!

If you are nervous or worried about going to the dentist. This is the place for you. That have the latest technology and knowledge to help you with all your needs. I myself need a lot of help to keep my teeth clean and healthy and I always feel comfortable and at ease when I go every three months. The Braxmire’s will take care of you like there own family. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!

Best dental care ever! Let me say that again: Best. Dental. Care. Ever!!! I had avoided going to the dentist for two years before coming here, out of fear of needing a bunch of tiny fillings due to my genetically strange teeth (thanks, dad!). I made an appointment here on a whim; the Yelp reviews were good so I was just hoping for a decent cleaning experience after putting it off for so long. The whole experience was awesome. Every single person who works here is sweet, but in a real way, not the cloying, fake sort that happens in a lot of other places. Linda was my hygienist and she was a hoot. I’m a bit of a jokester myself and her sense of humor was spot on and made my whole experience even better. I was legitimately sad when the cleaning was over, which nothing I have ever been able to say prior to my visit here. Since I first went to Hillside I have seen both dentists. Dr. Taylor is great, but I specifically loved seeing Dr. Braxmeyer. It was nice to have a lady dentist (for the first time in my life!), and she didn’t practice doom and gloom dentistry like I experienced at the last place I went over in SE. However, she was also as thorough as I wanted and answered every question I had without being cold or impersonal; it was around Thanksgiving time and we both talked about our families and plans for the holiday. After two years of avoiding the dentist I turns out I only needed two small cavities filled. That was a relief in and of itself, but the appointment was also easy to schedule and the way they perform fillings is novel and awesome! They use some sort of dental.. something (I forget what they call it, rats) to keep all the extra water/debris/etc. out of your mouth while they’re working on a tooth; it made the whole experience easier and better both on my end and theirs. Dr. Braxmeyer did my two fillings and I couldn’t be happier with them. I’ve been back since for a cleaning and have another scheduled in November. Sadly I’m moving back across the country at the end of the year, otherwise I’d be going to Hillside for years to come. I’ve already recommended this place to every single person I know, including those who hate going to the dentist or don’t really feel comfortable with the one they’re at now, so I figured it was time to make the same case on Yelp for everyone to see. Seriously. You won’t regret it.

Previously I had been seeing another dental office, which I loved, but due to my insurance changing I switched over to Hillside Dental. My appointment today as a new patient exceeded all my expectations. The front office staff was friendly and courteous, my hygienist was wonderful – the cleaning was great – and Dr. Elise Braxmeyer was just amazing! Everyone made me feel like I was not just a patient, but a friend. I look forward to my next visit in 6 months and I can recommend to anyone looking for a dentist to give them a call.

Just became new patients here and am trying to get my whole family moved over here. It’s a little hard to get in as a new patient but I have been really impressed with everything else. I have worked in the dental field so I have knowledge in the way things are done and have been more than happy with the treatments and their updated equipment. I feel confident that what needs to be done really needs to be done and would recommend them to my family and friends.

I have been one of Dr. Taylor’s patients for over 20 years, and in my file there is a picture of this little boy, standing there, proudly grinning from ear to ear after a cavity free checkup right alongside the 30 something adult version with the same grin. Kim is absolutely wonderful as are Linda and Mandy, and of course it just wouldn’t be the same without Margo smiling at you as you walk in the door. And Dr. Braxmeyer recently filled a cavity (first one in a long time) for me that would make Dr. Taylor proud. Outstanding job! And thank you all for making the “trip to the dentist” something to look forward too… Hmm… I seem to be limited to only 5 stars… 🙂

Great dentist! Everyone at this office was super friendly and made it easy to go in to get treatments done. I went here after going to a different dentist who told me I needed multiple extractions and thousands of dollars of ‘preventitive’ work done. After going to Hillside, I only needed a couple of things done and no extractions. I highly reccomend going here if you are looking for a new dentist.

Had a great appointment today, just had to switch from Kaiser and love these people so much more. Always on time for their appointments very nice and very interested in you and your life. They were incredibly helpful when scheduling my surgery and next appointment. I would recommend them to all of my friends.

So grateful for this awesome group of professionals. I was super nervous today and Kim just set me at ease right away. This office was always spotless and I knew to trust them to follow all necessary guidelines to keep themselves and me safe during this global pandemic. Highly, highly recommend this dental office. And….mask up out there!!!

I’ve seen Dr Taylor since I moved here in 1998. I can honestly say I have not had a moment of discomfort in his chair. All the staff are helpful and friendly. Having worked for a dentist myself previously, there’s always a little anxiety when you find a new provider. Dr Taylor quickly put those anxieties to rest. I’ve been very happy with his care.

I had my first non cleaning experience with Hillside Dental today – a replacement of an old crown. Dr. Elise was awesome expertly removing the old crown and fitting the new one. Especially cool is their 3D printer that creates the new crown while you wait – no need for a second appointment in a week. Overall the office and their caring staff exceeds my expectations.

Had a new hygienist this morning. My entire family has been going to hillside for a few years now and everyone is super pleasant. I had the privilege of meeting Starr this morning who just recently started there. She was so wonderful to work with. I don’t think either of us stopped laughing the entire appointment. She made my time fly by and was great to talk with. Looking forward to my next visit with her. The entire staff there is great to work with and you picked another winner by hiring Starr.

Any routine medical or dental procedure makes me nervous. However, I have been going to Hillside Dental for several years and highly recommend them. The staff is friendly, competent, and go the extra mile to make the patient feel comfortable. I have referred family and friends to them and everyone is happy with Hillside.

Hands down, the best dentist I have ever gone to. In a year span, Elise Braxmeyer has done wonders with my teeth. The team here is phenomenal & have gave me hope for a better smile. & now I am on my way to getting braces which I am excited about thank you all! This office always makes me feel at home

These guys are AWESOME! The front desk staff are so friendly you feel like your at their home. Kim is an amazing dental hygienist and a more genuine personable person couldn’t be found. They are very caring and thorough. The husband and wife team that are the dentists are very knowledgeable and puts you at ease. Highly highly recommend.

I’ve been a patient for 2 years. I am in my 60’s and this is the very best dental treatment that I have ever received. Both Doctors Elise and Nathan Braxmeyer are excellent and caring, up to date on the newest treatments. The entire staff is highly competent and personable. My hygienist now sees me every six months instead of 3 or 4 months previously. If you are anywhere near the Beaverton, Oregon area, I thoroughly recommend you check out Hillside Dental!

Love Dr. Elise Braxmeyer! Just had a cavity filled and it was the easiest one I have every had filled. She is so efficient and I trust her with any dental treatment she recommends. I just came from another dental office who told me I had 5 cavities to fill. 6 months ago there was only 1 to watch. I really don’t believe in filling micro cavities as the other dental office wanted to do. See the article here: abcnews.go.com/Health/De… And not to mention the one that looks like a shadow that the other clinic was ready to drill into! Dr. Braxmeyer is so ethical and conservative that she found just one (the same one I had on watch before which totally makes sense)! I’m so glad I got a second opinion and found this clinic. Now I’m ready to take my family in. Thank you Hillside Dental Care!!

great dental clinic… my hygienist is just awesome, very warm, caring and has never once made me feel any pain. everyone there is very welcoming and has a bright and happy attitude. the dentists are great (i have seen both) and are very direct, to the point and don’t try to push anything on you. been to many different clinics and this is by the far the best.

I am not a fan of going to the dentist (not many of those, huh?)….but going here has been a pleasure!! The staff is friendly, hygienists are gentle & caring and the Dr Braxmeyer is great! I always request Kim as my hygienist — she is amazing!! My 4 yr old daughter loves going there too! My boys are also patients there…never a complaint from them! I have been to other dentists over the years who I felt were dishonest and uncaring….Hillside Dental is nothing like this. They have actually made me look forward to my appts every 6 months!
