LA GRANDE — Dr. Lewis Wright’s new practice, Wright Family Dental, is now open at 2502 Cove Avenue, Suite D in La Grande and welcomes new patients. Raised in La Grande, Wright is the son of Wade Wright, a retired biology teacher at La Grande High School, and Lezlie Wright. He earned a bachelor’s degree in science from Eastern Oregon University in 2021 and graduated from Oregon Health & Science University School of Dentistry in June. Wright and his wife, Alaina Wright, an occupational therapist, live with and care for her grandparents, retired dentist Dr. Russell and Mrs. Marlene Kilpatrick of La Grande. Wright said Dr. Kilpatrick remains one of his professional mentors. “My wife and I are so excited to be back home and to be serving the community we really love here,” Wright said. During his last year in dentistry school, the faculty at OHSU School of Dentistry awarded Wright the Implant Dentistry Award as the best student in that category in his class.
