Introducing Ellen Krippaehne, DMD


We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Ellen Krippaehne, a third generation dentist, to our practice! Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Dr. Krippaehne is excited to join her father, Dr. Jim Krippaehne, in continuing the tradition of providing exceptional dental care to the community.

After earning her undergraduate degree from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, she pursued her dental education at the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) School of Dentistry, graduating with multiple meritorious awards and academic honors. Dr. Krippaehne then began her postdoctoral program, a General Practice Residency at the Portland VA Medical Center, where she gained extensive experience in comprehensive care for patients with diverse needs. With a strong foundation in both clinical expertise and a deep commitment to patient-centered care, Dr. Krippaehne is dedicated to providing personalized, high-quality dental services in a compassionate and comfortable environment. She shares her father's dedication to creating lasting relationships with patients and ensuring that every visit is a positive experience. We are confident that Dr. Krippaehne’s skill, professionalism, and warm, approachable nature will be a wonderful addition to the practice.

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Ellen enjoys backpacking, camping, skiing, running and volleyball with her husband Tommy. Please join us in welcoming her to the team — we look forward to introducing her to you at your next visit!
