A passionate advocate for patient health and beautiful smiles, Dr. Henderson sees patients at her private practice in Clarkston, Washington. With a keen focus on esthetic dentistry, she and her team are dedicated to restoring teeth to their natural brilliance, creating rewarding experiences for patients. 

“Patient education is a major focus of our practice philosophy,” Dr. Henderson states, emphasizing the importance of preventive-oriented dentistry and comprehensive care.

Educated in the United States, Dr. Henderson’s journey in dentistry began after earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 1998. Her commitment to excellence is evident through her affiliations as a Fellow of the American College of Dentists, the International College of Dentists, and the Pierre Fauchard Academy. 

Continuously advancing her efforts, she is a participant in various dental education programs, including the Bale-Doneen Preceptorship, the Bioclear Method, Solventum Filtek Matrix, Seattle Study Club, the Kois Center, and many other cutting-edge learning opportunities. Her dedication to education is further exemplified by her volunteerism with the Lewis-Clark State College Foundation and the Clarkston Education Foundation.

Deeply involved in her community, Dr. Henderson has served as a multi-term past-president of her local component of the American Dental Association and played a pivotal role in organizations such as the Washington State Dental Association, the Washington Oral Health Foundation, and the Delta Dental Member Advisory Panel.

Beyond the realm of dentistry, she serves as a leader in various community organizations. She leads the Girl Scout Troop 3737, contributes to the Lewis-Clark State College Scholarship Club for women’s basketball, and generously supports Lewis-Clark State College through an Endowed Professorship in Dental Hygiene. Her commitment to empowering others earned her the Althea Pabst Award from Lewis-Clark State College, recognizing her invaluable contributions.
