Dr. Jamie Holden is a periodontist dedicated to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care in periodontics and implant dentistry. He focuses on helping patients achieve long-term oral health through individualized treatment plans, including both surgical and non-surgical therapies.

Originally from Northern British Columbia, Dr. Holden came to the U.S. on an NCAA Division I hockey scholarship to Quinnipiac University, where he served as the starting goaltender for 4 seasons and graduated summa cum laude with a 3.9 GPA balancing academic excellence with athletic achievement. He later played professional hockey as a free agent with the San Jose Sharks and competed professionally for several affiliated hockey teams in California, Ohio, and Florida before transitioning to a career in dentistry.

He earned his DMD from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and completed a two-year General Practice Residency, serving as Co-Chief Resident. He went on to complete specialty training in periodontics at Oregon Health & Science University, where he also earned a Master of Science in Periodontology.

He and his wife, Marion–also a dentist– have two children, Cora and Matthew. Outside of the office, Dr. Holden enjoys hiking, cooking, playing sports, and spending quality time with his family.
