SureSmile makes the rounds on ABC’s “The Doctors”


On a recent episode of ABC's "The Doctors," Dr. Thomas Lee of Oxnard, California, was interviewed in front of a live audience and demonstrated SureSmile technology and discussed treatment benefits for orthodontists and their patients. Dr. Lee's 14-year-old patient, Nina, who had just completed SureSmile treatment, was part of the segment as well, and spoke positively about her SureSmile treatment experience.

SureSmile is a software program that facilitates the precise positioning of a patient’s teeth placement for orthodontic braces. Did you know Dr. Hardin is a certified SureSmile provider? Give us a call and ask for more information!

Meet Our Orthodontist

I married my high school sweetheart in 1988, and we have four wonderful children. Nothing is more important to me than their well being. I have built my practice around the values, ethics, integrity, and experience that I would expect out of a health care professional rendering service to my own family members.

I have been practicing orthodontics in the Gresham and Sandy areas since 1996. As a third generation dental professional, I take the job of straightening teeth and creating beautiful smiles very seriously and very personally. I have surrounded myself with staff members that share this same desire. During your orthodontic treatment, we will do our best to create a fun and lighthearted environment for you to receive your care. It is important to us for you and your family to have the best possible experience in our practice. We strive to blend our desire for beautiful results with an office atmosphere that is receptive and warm.

I have pretty much been an Oregonian my whole life. I went to Sam Barlow High School, followed by Western Oregon State University and Portland State University for my college education. I then attended Oregon Health Sciences University for both my dental school education and my orthodontic residency. I am very proud and happy to be back in the Gresham community. Gresham was a great place for my wife and I to grow up, and we wanted nothing more than to come back to Gresham to work and raise our family.

When I am not straightening teeth, I enjoy golfing, skiing, fishing, and pretty much anything in the outdoors. I am very active in my church, and I love to spend time with my wife and children.
