Dr. Christopher Primley

Prior to moving to Central Oregon, Dr. Primley practiced in Portland and SW Washington, running an office with two other general dentists and an orthodontist. Being able to collaborate across specialties enabled him to provide the best possible outcomes for his patients. He continually pushes himself to learn and grow, and understands that like many things, dentistry is adaptive. Being up-to-date on the most current advances and technologies enables Dr. Primley to offer a wide range of solutions for his patients.

Dr. Primley received his BA in English Literature from the University of Washington. This background gave him the ability to look at clinical scenarios from both a scientific and artistic viewpoint, and is something he prides himself on. Following graduation, he focused on diversifying his skill set before entering into dental school. During the interim period, he held a number of leadership roles in retail management and multimedia editing in Seattle. He then received his dental education from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine. During school he was an elected representative for ASDA, participating in organized dentistry events across the country. He was also a member of the Oral Surgery Club, the Diversity Club, and orchestrated all dental school community outreach initiatives. He graduated as a member of the academic honors society Omicron Kappa Upsilon.

During his down time, you’ll always find Dr. Primley with his wife, Allie, his hilarious pup, Figgy, and his brand new twin boys Jack and Ellis! They love to experience all that Central Oregon has to offer, so you’ll typically find them scouting the local food scene, exploring a local coffee shop, or outside enjoying the beautiful high desert scenery. He loves to travel, and has a serious fascination with architecture and interior design.

Giving back to the community has been a cornerstone of his entire academic and professional career. He’s excited to grow with this community that has been so open and accepting, and offer his skills to improve the lives of others.

Believing that continual learning is essential, Dr. Primley continues to expand his skills and knowledge. He participates regularly in continuing education that makes him a better informed and more skillful provider for his patients. He is a proud member of the following dental societies:

Dr. Anu Williams, DDS

Originally from Northern Indiana, Dr. Anu Williams earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology before completing her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the Indiana University School of Dentistry. Some of her most meaningful memories from dental school include serving communities in Antigua, Guatemala, and spending time on an American Indian reservation caring for members of the Sioux Tribe in South Dakota. Those experiences helped shape her heart for service and strengthen her belief that everyone deserves access to compassionate dental care.

Before moving to Central Oregon, Dr. Williams lived in the suburbs of Seattle and Idaho. She is excited to now call this beautiful region home and looks forward to serving the community while exploring all that Central Oregon has to offer.

Dr. Williams truly enjoys getting to know her patients and improving their lives through gentle, personalized care. She stays up to date on the latest research, techniques, and technology so she can provide the highest quality dentistry in a comfortable, caring environment. Her goal is for every patient to feel relaxed, heard, and genuinely cared for at each visit. She is thrilled to be part of the Central Oregon dental community and looks forward to building lasting relationships with her patients and neighbors!

In her spare time Dr. Williams loves spending time with her husband and daughter. She enjoys reading and writing, and also hopes to one day visit all 50 states with her family.

Lovely people. I felt very well taken care of. The hygienist worked with me to reduce the number of cleanings I needed per year by helping me improve my daily cleaning routine.
