Meet Dr. Michael Royse

Dr. Michael Royse is a native of Beaverton, Oregon. A product of Aloha High School and the University of Oregon, he graduated with honors from The Oregon Health Sciences University School of Dentistry in 1987. After dental school, Dr. Royse served as a dental officer with the United States Navy.  During his 11 years of military service, he completed a General Practice Residency at Naval Hospital, Oakland, California.  Dr. Royse then completed his residency in pediatric dentistry, graduating from the Fort George G.
