Gentle Dental Everett Welcomes Dr. Ryan Etue

Gentle Dental welcomes Dr. Ryan Etue, D.M.D., to the staff of its Everett office, located in Everett, WA.

Dr. Etue practices general dentistry, with the qualification to administer conscious sedation. This method of dental care allows patients to remain somewhat responsive during a procedure, while minimizing the pain and discomfort usually involved with other sedatives.

Dr. Etue attended Michigan State University for his undergraduate studies, and received his dentistry degree from Nova Southeastern. He is an active member of the American Dental Association, the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation, and the American Dental Anesthesia Society. In 2008 and 2009, Dr. Etue received an award for his volume of work contributed to Dentistry from the Heart, a non-profit organization that provides free dental care to those in need.

What Dr. Etue enjoys most about his profession is the challenge of curing dental anxiety in even the most fearful of patients. He has a desire to treat and care for patients in a warm atmosphere, and welcomes new patients to visit him at Gentle Dental Everett.

The Gentle Dental Everett team also includes:

General Dentists
John Cheng, D.M.D.
