Dr. Steven Inaba

Our team thrives on being a positive influence for our patient's oral health coupled with the benefits toward overall health and quality of life.  People delay comprehensive dental care for many reasons, however, problems can quietly enlarge and become a bigger dilemma.  I find it personally rewarding to help be a positive change that enhances the trajectory of someone's health, well being, and confidence. 

With current technology, treatments, and services, we can overcome many obstacles that may have interfered with optimal dental care.  I'm passionate about our team's role in the lifelong benefits of great care in conjunction with reducing the risk of future problems.

Education and Continuing Education

Both my parents worked in education and I've always valued the importance of learning, growing, and staying curious. I attended the University of Washington School of Dentistry, graduating in 2005 with my Doctorate of Dental Surgery, and began my career at Meridian Dental Clinic later that year. Dentistry offers many challenges requiring different skills such as technical and scientific knowledge, analysis, physical performance, as well as team organization, vision, and leadership. To keep up with the ever-changing world of dentistry, I continue my education through courses and seminars throughout the year. This helps me to stay up-to-date with the latest changes in dentistry, allows for a wider range of services to be offered, and improves the level of care that can be provided for our patients.
