I attended Oregon State University and graduated from Oregon Health and Science University in 2009. After I graduated, my wife Michele and I moved to rural Bethel, Alaska. Living in a town of 5,000 people, accessible only by plane, I provided basic and specialized dental care in many unique settings. My team and I—and our portable equipment—spent three months each year flying to remote villages to provide dental care to small communities, including serving the needs of the Yupik-Eskimos on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. I learned how important it is to deliver safe comfortable care in a convenient and welcoming environment. After practicing in Alaska, my family and I returned to Oregon in 2013. Now I work in the Salem, OR area with the best team ever, specializing in wisdom teeth extractions and other dental surgeries. We are happy to serve our community with the most current treatments for those looking for a safe, caring, and expert dental experience. See more of Dr. Brannen on HealthGrades, WebMD, and ShareCare.
