Dr. Jennifer Winslow

Although born in Lubbock, Texas, Dr. Jennifer spent her childhood in the cozy Sacramento Valley town of Paradise, California. From an early age, she knew her passion for working with kids would lead her to a career in pediatric dentistry.

Her journey to becoming a dentist began with an undergraduate degree in Biology from California State University, Chico. She then moved to Arizona to complete her dental training at Midwestern University in Glendale, where she graduated as a member of the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society and was awarded the Pediatric Dentistry Award. To round out her education, she pursued a pediatric dentistry residency at The Ohio State University & Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.

After completing her training, Dr. Jennifer and her husband returned to the West Coast to be closer to family. They chose Oregon for their love of the outdoors, but what truly stole their hearts was the quaint charm of Silverton, Oregon—the home of Acorn! Dr. Jennifer has been part of Acorn since completing her residency.

Since 2020, Dr. Jennifer has been an equal partner at Acorn Dentistry for Kids, turning her vision into reality. She sees this partnership as an opportunity to expand access to quality dental care for children—not only by treating patients directly but also by shaping the future of pediatric dentistry. Her lifelong passion for working with kids dates back to babysitting younger cousins and volunteering in church nurseries and summer camps.

Today, Dr. Jennifer and her husband stay happily busy with their three boys—Tyson, Lincoln, and Nolan. The Winslow family embraces the outdoors, spending most weekends maintaining and improving their land in Silverton. They also love to travel, exploring both national and international destinations whenever they can.
