Dr James Alder has a common name in dentistry in our area!

  • Dr Mark Alder is his cousin, a general dentist in downtown Beaverton, OR.
  • Dr Brian Alder is also his cousin, a general dentist in NW Vancouver, WA.
  • Alder Dental Center, a visible group practice in Bridgeport Mall, is not related to Dr James Alder, in fact there is no dentist there with the name of Alder.  They just liked the name Alder (as in the tree?); which unfortunately is confusing.
