North Harbor Dentistry is a family and cosmetic dental practice on 14315 62nd Ave NW in Gig Harbor, led by Drs. Matt and Justine Priess.

Call (253) 851-4025Shelton is the longest drive of anywhere we serve, and there is no point pretending otherwise. From Oakland Bay it is SR-3 northeast to Allyn, then the entire seventeen miles of SR-302 across the top of the Key Peninsula, over the Purdy Bridge, and you are at our door. Call it the better part of an hour each way.
So the honest question is whether the trip earns itself. Two things help. Porcelain crowns are scanned and milled here in the office, which turns a crown into one appointment instead of a temporary, a lab wait and a second round trip. And where the schedule allows we will put a cleaning, an exam and a filling into one visit rather than spreading them across three.
Mason County's only incorporated city has run on timber and oysters for well over a century, and neither industry is gentle on a schedule. Ours: 8:00 to 5:00 Monday and Wednesday, 8:00 to 3:30 Tuesday and Thursday, closed Friday.
Say you are coming from Shelton when you book on (253) 851-4025, so we can put as much as possible into the one appointment.

ClearCorrect Clear Aligners Instead of Metal Braces
ClearCorrect straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners instead of brackets and wires. It is used for crowding, gaps, and teeth that have drifted since childhood braces. The aligners come out to eat and to brush. An exam and X-rays tell you whether aligners can do what your teeth need.

Not many years ago, losing a tooth left you with few options for replacement. While permanent teeth should provide a lifetime of function, it doesn't always end up that way. They may be lost from an accident, deep cavities, or gum disease. And since teeth start as a full set, even one missing tooth may disrupt the complex function of chewing, the first step in digestion. As teeth slowly lean and migrate into extra spaces, wear and cracking from excessive forces often create escalating problems.
Tooth Removal with Bone Grafting to Support an Implant
While we focus on helping you maintain your teeth for a lifetime, sometimes certain teeth need to be removed. Wisdom teeth, extra teeth, or very crowded teeth present situations that may mean treatment involving removal. In some cases, severely decayed or cracked teeth, or those missing large amounts of supporting bone leave extraction as the only viable option.
