Dr. EmmaLeigh Gordon, DDS
Dr. EmmaLeigh Gordon is originally from Plymouth, Michigan, a suburb of Ann Arbor, Michigan. She moved to Seattle 10 years ago and has made her home in Washington. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Michigan. After graduating from the University of Michigan, she worked as an office manager for a dental practice and fell in love with the field of dentistry. She discovered that dentistry combined her passion for helping others with her lifelong hobby of arts and crafts.
Dr. Gordon continued her education at the University of Washington School of Dentistry. She did extra clinic rotations through the DECOD clinic where she learned how to provide care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities. She was a peer mentor in this clinic and taught other dental students how to provide care to patients with disabilities.
Dr. Gordon is passionate about holistic health for her patients with an emphasis on clear aligner therapy and sleep apnea. She is a member and has trained with the AIR Institute residency group that focuses on the integration of Airway, Invisalign, and Restorative dentistry, an integrative approach to treating the whole patient. In her free time, Dr. Emma enjoys spending time with her husband and three kids, Cedar, Aralia, and Fox in addition to gardening and reading.
