I love changing lives through dentistry. I am so blessed that my profession gives me the opportunity to meet amazing new people each and every day. I make it my goal to demonstrate care and respect for every one of my patients because they deserve nothing less. I love being able to change a life by improving a smile.I was born missing two of my front teeth and immediately after High School had two dental implants placed.The impact of dental implants on me personally led me into a career in dentistry.

My team is made up of professional, caring, and fun individuals. They love what they do and are passionate about providing quality care to our patients. We all feel amazed that weve been lucky enough to have so much fun doing what we love.Dr. Brown on Google+

I graduated fromOlympic Community Collegewith my Associates degree before continuing on toCentral Washington Universityfor my Bachelors degree in Biology. My dental training was received from theUniversity of Washington.

My patients desire, deserve, and demand the best dental care available and continuing education allows me to provide for their needs in the most effective and efficient manner. Through organizations such as the Yakima Prosthodontic and Implant Study Club, CEREC Doctors,Invisalign, and DOCS (Dental Oral Conscious Sedation), I learn about the newest technology available in dentistry today. Additionally, as an adjunct faculty member of the University of WashingtonsDental Schooland a part-time clinical faculty member of the Yakima Valley Community CollegesDental Hygiene Department, I have the privilege of educating dentists and their teams on early childhood dental needs and treatment.

I am originally from Bremerton and currently reside in Selah with my wife, Susan, our son Noah, and two dogs.I have two grown children Kristle and Mikayla as well as three grandsons, Jameson, Kingsley, and Lennox.Much of my free time is consumed with visiting kids and grandkids.However, I have discovered a passion for golf and enjoy scuba diving, snow skiing, bootcamp workouts, running, and traveling.

It has been my privilege to help my patients achieve optimal oral health and wonderful smiles for more than 30 years. My passion is patient-centered care, building lasting relationships while helping each person develop their healthiest, strongest smile.

Whether Im caring for a child at the first dental visit, restoring an adults ability to chew comfortably, or relieving pain, my focus is on whats best for that patient. I understand that each persons clinical needs and personal concerns are unique. Instead of dictating a specific treatment path, Ill work with you to find the approach thats best for your specific situation.

While I have experience in all aspects of dentistry, my area of expertise is in replacement of missing teeth. I offer dental implants, bridges, and dentures, which restore the ability to chew properly, relieve stress on the jaw and facial muscles, and improve a persons confidence in their appearance.

I am committed providing each patient with advanced care, using leading-edge technology and processes. Each year, I complete many continuing dental education courses, staying current on new technologies, methodologies, and materials.

After growing up in Ephrata, I have lived in Yakima for more than 30 years. My loving wife, Linda, and I have been married for more than 40 years; thats what happens when you marry your high school sweetheart! We have two children, three grandchildren, and one big dog.

For more than 20 years, I have served on the Board of Directors of the Yakima Valley Speech and Hearing Center, including two years as President. I have also been involved with the Yakima Downtown Rotary Club and served as Chairman of the Youth Exchange Committee for the International District 5060.

Every smile is unique and beautiful its my privilege to help each patient feel their absolute best. My passion is for dentistry and my heart is for people. Serving patients in my hometown of Yakima is a dream come true. Im committed to delivering high-quality dental care and connecting on a personal level with everyone I treat.

Like Dr. Brown and Dr. Kinney, I completed my Doctorate of Dental Surgery at the University of Washington School of Dentistry. Prior to that, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology also at the University of Washington. When I graduated dental school I felt called back to the Yakima Valley, so I joined the Northwest Dental Residency program where I served as Chief Dental Resident. Following the residency program, I practiced at Yakima Neighborhood Health, providing dentistry for low income and underprivileged individuals in our community.

I volunteer weekly and have contributed to several local, regional and international outreaches. Im also very involved in my church where my wife and I help host the services and are on the Legacy Team. Im married to my college sweetheart Smitha, whose name means smile from God. In August of 2019 we had our first son, Easton who has brought so much joy into our lives. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, golfing, trying new kinds of food, and watching Seattle sports.

I graduated from Clark Community Colleges Dental Hygiene Program in 2012. After my degree in dental hygiene, I continued my education and received my Bachelors Degree in Dental Hygeine from Eastern Washington University in 2013. My career passion is to help patients feel comfortable in my hygiene chair, to help them enjoy their smile, and to give them a better understanding of oral health and its effect on their body. I enjoy staying current in all dental hygiene techniques through continuing education and thrive on staying on top of current dental hygiene protocols. Inspired Dental is a great supporter of staying on top of new technology and current dental medicine.

When Im not in the office I love to run, ski, wakeboard, and support local events. I have a black belt in karate and enjoy competing around the northwest. My husband Jake and I are the proud parents of a baby boy, and two dogs (Carlos the pug and Bruno the boxer).

Im a graduate of the Yakima Valley Community College Dental Assisting Program. Ive been assisting Dr. Brown off and on since 2000. After taking a break to complete my Associates of Arts in Radiology Technology in 2010. Ive been told that my greatest gift is connecting with my patients to help ease their fears and nerves about being in a dental office. I love to create a sense of family with each and every patient.

Some of my hobbies include baking, bringing treats to work, and hanging out with the girls outside of the office. One of my greatest joys is raising my son Ashton and reflecting on how much he keeps growing.

I highly recommend Dr. Easter from Inspired Dental. The office staff are very friendly when you arrive for your appointment. They acknowledge you by name when you arrive. I've needed to coordinate my appointments with the orthodontist and they have done a great job. Dr. Easter takes time to talk with you to go over your dental concerns/plan. He's very friendly and compassionate. If you need dental work I highly recommend Dr. Easter and the team at Inspired Dental.

The billing lady at the front desk is entitled. She needs a lesson in customer service. I have no problem with the people who work in the back like dentists and dental hygienists. Every time I check out she has a new surprise bill for me and she explains it in words I don't understand. It's so sad that she is there cause now I'm never going back and my kids really love the Denist.

I have been going to Inspired Dental for a long time. I had appointment yesterday to get teeth cleaned. Am having some health issues. Mandi took extra time to discuss these issues. This was very important to me. Dr. Brown staff is wonderful. They are all interested in health issues. When you have a appointment you get the feeling that they all really like their jobs. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Patricia Spencer

JD and the Inspired Dental team were amazing about diagnosing the cause of my jaw pain and Immediate treatments to remedy the problem. JD went the extra step of expediting my mouth guard and getting me in for a final fitting along with doing my 6 month teeth cleaning all before I left on vacation. From first visit to mouth guard was one week. Amazing service!!
