Zachary D. Bergevin, DDS
I want to make your dental experience very positive and stress free. In terms of beauty and complexity, dentistry today is light-years ahead of where it was ten, twenty or thirty years ago. My goal is to match that technological advance with an equal advance in empathy, compassion and comfort. I encourage you to let me get to know you and become your partner on a journey to a lifetime of dental health.

Outside the Office
I was born and raised in Yakima, Washington, where my dad was a high school history teacher and my mom worked in the office of an elementary school. My last name is pronounced Berj-a-vin, and I’ve been told that in French it means “wine barge.” I met my wife, Devin, in dental school and followed her back to Port Orchard, where we now practice dentistry together. I spend quite a bit of time reading about the latest advances in dentistry, but when I’m not doing that, I enjoy playing soccer, running, swimming, playing board or card games, and watching movies.
