Meet Dr. Tracy Scott – Periodontist

Dr. Tracy Scott is a respected periodontist both locally and nationally. He brings more than 30 years of dental expertise to Mukilteo Dental Center.

Dr. Tracy Scott was raised in Charleston South Carolina and earned a Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina. Upon dental school graduation he decided upon a career with the US Navy Dental Corp. This decision offered him a chance to serve our country, as well as gaining diverse clinical experience and professional growth. His assignments carried him to many locations throughout the world. A career highlight was his assignment at Bethesda Naval Hospital called the “President’s Hospital” located outside D.C. Dr. Scott served as Chairman and Program Director of the Periodontics Department at the Naval Postgraduate Dental School. At this teaching hospital, his department was involved in the specialty training of new military dentists. His staff was also dedicated to the treatment and rehabilitation of our many wounded warriors. Dr. Scott’s absolute focus was on helping this most deserving group of patients, but in retrospect, he was the one who benefitted the most by expanding his scope of advanced surgical skills. It was this assignment that shaped his treatment philosophy. Patients first with no second priority.

After many years of military service and too many family moves, his final assignment was at the Bangor base. Having travelled to many places in the Navy, the Northwest immediately captured him with its abundant natural beauty. But It was the wonderful people that sold him on making the Northwest his final home. Dr. Scott is ready to share his many years of clinical experience to the people of this magnificent area at Mukilteo Dental Center.

On weekends, you can find Dr. Scott hiking with his black lab, kayaking in the Sound, and fishing for salmon. During his time off, he volunteers with local charity groups to provided dental care to families in need. He and wife, Michelee, continue to explore this part of our country at every opportunity and to work to become part of the local community.
