Detailed Introduction

Kois Dentistry is a distinguished dental practice located in Seattle, Washington, known for its commitment to advanced, evidence-based dentistry. The clinic's philosophy is intrinsically linked to the Kois Center, an internationally recognized post-graduate learning institution founded by Dr. John C. Kois. Dr. John C. Kois, a highly respected prosthodontist with degrees from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Washington, maintains a private practice limited to prosthodontics in Seattle and Tacoma and is an Affiliate Professor at the University of Washington. He is also a prolific lecturer, reviewer for numerous dental journals, and Editor-in-Chief for The Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry. The Kois Center is unique in that it is the only continuing education program in the U.S. that conducts and publishes independent research, ensuring its curriculum is continually updated with the latest scientific evidence. This commitment to ongoing research and education forms the bedrock of Kois Dentistry's approach to patient care. Dentists at Kois Dentistry, often including Dr. Kois himself and his son, Dr. Dean Kois, and daughter, Dr. Tara Kois, apply the comprehensive, systematic protocols taught at the Kois Center. These protocols emphasize thorough patient evaluation, assessing biomechanical, periodontal, functional, and aesthetic risks to create highly individualized and predictable treatment plans. Kois Dentistry offers a broad spectrum of dental services, specializing in complex restorative cases, cosmetic enhancements, and implant dentistry. Their expertise includes procedures such as veneers, crowns, bridges, full mouth reconstructions, and addressing issues like bite problems (TMD). The practice prioritizes long-term oral health and functional outcomes, rather than just temporary fixes. Patients can expect a meticulous examination, often involving X-rays, digital imaging, and diagnostic impressions, leading to a customized treatment plan. The clinic is highly regarded for its patient-centered approach, focusing on clear communication, trust, and empathy to alleviate dental anxiety. Testimonials highlight the clinic's ability to deliver natural-looking and durable results, with patients often remarking on the increased confidence and comfort they experience. Kois Dentistry aims to provide top-tier dental care by integrating the latest advancements, precision, and a deep understanding of comprehensive oral health into every treatment.

My husband and I have been going to the Kois office for over 2 years, and we love their practice so much. They are always professional, very friendly, fast and trustworthy. They also have deep knowledge of the industry including restorative dental care. I always feel like I get a straightforward answer and that I’m only being recommended services I need. My primary dentist is Dr.

Tara Kois- she’s so great, really listens to my concerns. I’ve met Dr. Dean Kois once and he was very personable and didn’t try to sell me something I didn’t need. I trust this office and always recommend this practice when asked for a great dentist! My dad was a dentist, so I know what to look for when searching for a great one!

I’ve been very impressed with Dr. Tara, Dr. Brienne, and the entire staff at Kois. 10/10, would highly recommend! They’ve been phenomenal helping me with cosmetic and regular dentistry (including a filling), orthodontics, and regular cleanings. I first visited Kois several years ago, after a skiing accident where I knocked out half of both my front two teeth, and a bit of one of my bottom front teeth. I wanted to find the absolute best cosmetic dentist in the Seattle area, and after talking to a couple dentists I knew, and doing a lot of research, Kois came highly recommended.

They’re truly the best! Dr. Tara was able to reconstruct my three front teeth (via a crown, veneer and filling) with a stunning end result that looks completely natural (in fact, better) and for which I’ve received many compliments. The process, including Dr. Brienne’s excellent work with a round of Invisalign, was very smooth, and most importantly, I feel confident in my fully restored structural foundation (and even improved) smile. I felt comfortable and well informed though out the process, which is a big deal coming out of some traumatizing experiences at the dentist as a kid. I feel they’ve helped me heal from those experiences too.

Thank great you to Dr. Tara, Dr. Brienne, Stacy, Kat and the rest of the team! Couldn't be happier.

Dr. Dean Kois is an artist. His forté happens to be tooth sculpture. I have been seeing him for over 10 years and recommend him (or his wife, Tara) to anyone I speak to about dental work. I especially appreciate their description of what they are doing and why, as well as the administrative staff. There are never billing surprises and they have been flexible with me when I needed it.

Kois Dentistry is without question the best dentistry clinic I've been to in my 65 years. The entire staff is personable, professional, non-judgmental, and understanding, while Dr. Kois himself is a rock star. Their facilities are state-of-the-art.

I can honestly say that through four tooth extractions, several fillings, and the most thorough cleanings my teeth have ever had, I have not once felt even a glimmer of discomfort. In just a little over a year, the team at Kois has overcome my lifetime of less-than-positive dental experiences; for the first time ever I actually look forward to going to the dentist. Kois Dentistry has earned my highest personal recommendation.
