Portland is a city located in the Northwestern United States, near the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers in the state of Oregon. As of July 2008, it has an estimated population of 575,930,[5] making it the 29th most populous in the United States.[6] It has been referred to as the most environmentally friendly or "green" city in the United States, and the 2nd most in the world.[7] Portland is Oregon's most populous city, and the third most populous city in the Pacific Northwest, after Vancouver, British Columbia, and Seattle, Washington. Approximately two million people live in the Portland metropolitan area (MSA), the 23rd most populous in the United States as of July 2006.[8]

Portland was incorporated in 1851 and is the county seat of Multnomah County.[9] The city extends slightly into Washington County to the west and Clackamas County to the south. It is governed by a commission-based government headed by a mayor and four other commissioners.

The city and region are noted for strong land-use planning[10] and investment in light rail, supported by Metro, a distinctive regional-government. Portland is known for its large number of microbreweries and microdistilleries, and its coffee fanaticism. It is also the home of the Trail Blazers NBA basketball team.

Portland lies in the Marine west coast climate region, marked by warm, dry summers and rainy but temperate winters. This climate is ideal for growing roses, and for more than a century, Portland has been known as "The City of Roses"[11][12] with many rose gardens—most prominently the International Rose Test Garden.

November 05, 2009

Keeping braces clean is extremely important, will help prevent problems and keep discomfort to a minimum. With your clean braces, you give your teeth more room to move faster When teeth are clean, the mouth does not allow bacteria to grow. Food particles left among the teeth in your mouth breed bacteria which makes the food acidic; so, it is imperative that your mouth remains clean.

If your teeth are clean you will experience more comfortable mo... (read more)

9. The Importance of Regular Dental Care
October 04, 2009

You should still get dental checkups while you’re in braces! Regular dental care and checkups are especially important for children in orthodontic appliances (braces). This is because due to the nature of braces and their design, they are very difficult to clean around. The parts of teeth covered by orthodontic bands are actually protected from cavities if all decay is removed before the braces are placed. But, the exposed parts of teeth can still decay and often are difficult to clean. We will keep an eye on all oral issues for our patients. We recommend all cavities be filled and... (read more)

First born should have their first dental visit by age one, the next kids can come at a... (read more)

19. An Overview of Dental X-Rays
August 27, 2009

Due to the ability of radiographs (X-Rays) to show cavities between teeth and deep beneath the pits in teeth, they are used routinely in dental care. Without x-rays, dentists can't always spot decay.

They can allow dentists to survey erupting teeth, examine teeth injuries, d... (read more)
