Just ask his patients, community, and family: Dr. Tanner is an Issaquah, WA resident, scout leader, mentor, friend, missionary, and all-around kid at heart. These endearing qualities have enabled Dr. Tanner to build Issaquahs Best Family Dental Practice.

Experienced and trusted around the world, Dr. Robert Tanner, DDS graduated from Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas, TX in 1988. Having a desire to understand and perfect the latest in general and cosmetic dentistry technology and techniques, he invests between 60 - 100 hours of continuing education and training each year at the best dental learning centers.

Even with all this skill, his passion is for you to have the least amount of dentistry done in your lifetime. He repeatedly says, The best dentistry is no dentistry. Therefore, his emphasis is primarily prevention and only after that, quality repair as needed.

Caring for families, watching them grow, and making a difference in their long-term oral health are what make Rob smile. Dr. Tanner applies a philosophy of listening, educating, and providing choices that enable clear communication and great patient results.

Taking his talents abroad, Dr. Tanner participates annually with various humanitarian organizations such as International Smile Power and Great Shape! Inc. to provide care in faraway places, including Honduras, Mexico, Jamaica, Bolivia, and Nicaragua.

Dr. Matthew Tanner chose to join the oral healthcare field to meet people personally every day and to help make a difference in their lives. He loves seeing transformations in people, as he personally helps build someones self-worth and confidence by improving a smile and restoring quality of life.

Growing up in Issaquah, Dr. Matt attended the University of Washington School of Dentistry for his Doctorate of Dental Surgery (DDS) and the University of Utah for his General Practice Residency. He participates in continuing education to learn how to offer a more comfortable experience to patients and is excited to learn how to provide longer lasting and more conservative treatments.

When Dr. Matt joined his father at Tanner Family Dentistry, they became a true family practice. Dr. Matt says, I love that our patients are our family, friends, and neighbors. I love building relationships with them and seeing them in the community.

Dr. Matt has a wonderful wife and three little daughters. He spends his time outside the office playing with his sweet girls, family movie nights, playing board games, and spending time with the love of his life.

Dr. Matt shares his fathers desire to improve peoples lives. He went with his father on a trip to Honduras as a teenager and Jamaica right before dental school. Dr. Matt also regularly attends and volunteers at his church, which brings him joy as he serves others and learns with others to weather the storms of life.

We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice

As our office manager, I am responsible for treatment planning, insurance coordination, patient accounts, and specialist referral coordination. I enjoy working closely with our patients to help them complete their needed or desired dental care in a manner that suites their financial means and achieves their goals.

I strive to live each and every day to the fullest whether I am at home or on the job. I enjoy spending my time outside of the office with my spouse and children along with their extended families. We treasure camping, playing sand volleyball, game nights, or just plain hanging out together. I can also be found on the soccer field or at fun-filled events with my very special circle of life-long soccer friends and their families.

I love assisting Dr. Tanner with patient care, and helping each person receive great oral health. I feel so fortunate to work with an amazing team, where I meet interesting people and have the opportunity to use my interpersonal skills to make patients feel comfortable during their visits. Its a great feeling to know that each person in Dr. Tanners office brings their best each and every day with the collective goal of providing the highest quality dental service possible.

Most of my time outside of work is spent with my husband and three little boys taking part in anything sports related, watching movies, and socializing with friends. I also enjoy traveling, exercising, and volunteering at my sons schools.

I assist Dr. Tanner in all restorative work, perform cleanings for children, and help our hygienists and front office staff when needed. I love the women I work with and getting to know our wonderful patients. We have built a comfortable, family atmosphere where each person works for the whole team and not themselves. Plus, we all have a great sense of humor!

I am happily married and together Jon and I love to travel, spend time with friends and family, and go to Seahawks games. We arealsoavid dog lovers and are now the proud owners of a beautiful goldendoodle named George. Looking forward to meeting you!

I began my career in 1996 as a dental assistant, and after continuing my education, I became a dental hygienist in 2005. My patients oral health is my number-one priority; I take their needs and goals very seriously. I enjoy working with people on an individual basis, learning new things about them, and providing them with the best possible care. I feel fortunate to work with such great people who are highly professional and ethical. Dr. Tanner has a trustworthy quality and the ability to do incredible work.

In order to ensure my patients achieve and maintain ideal oral health, I provide comprehensive cleanings, oral hygiene instruction, nutritional counseling, and take X-rays. I love getting to know each patient on an individual basis while providing them with quality and comfortable care. Another great thing about my job is the incredible people with whom I get to work. My team is extremely easy and fun to work with. There is never a dull moment throughout the day!

We are committed to providing the highest quality clinical care and personalized service in a warm and compassionate atmosphere. Our doctor and staff enjoy getting to know each patient and their families, and love creating relationships that last multiple generations.
