Dr. Shanks was very caring and patient. He didn't get in any hurry and made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. His staff from the front desk to his assistants were fantastic. I had no pain at all afterwards. Highly recommend him!

Patient Review
Final visit was today for my extraction/ implant process and the process couldn't have gone smoother. An x-ray was shot and a torque test was performed and I was "released" to my regular dentist for my crown. I'll be back when the need arises. Highly recommended! Awesome staff as well.

Patient Review
Great experience with my daughter getting her wisdom teeth removed. They were very friendly and nice; she was very nervous about this procedure. They helped make her feel safe and went over everything in detail at the end.

Patient Review
Dr. Shanks was more than willing to take my daughter’s medical history into consideration when making a plan for surgery. We left with two options and a month to consult with her physician prior to making a final decision. He was incredibly supportive and informative.

Patient Review
Had a wisdom tooth removed. Was treated with kindness and respect. Dr Shanks explained what to expect before extraction and after. I was given an iv medication and remember nothing. I had no pain afterwards. Very happy I’m not dealing with a painful tooth anymore.

Patient Review
I walked in with a referral after visiting my dentist. The plan was just to get the consultation appt set up but they got me in for that within 30 mins that day. They have already contacted me on day one with a cancelation trying to accommodate me better for my extraction appt. Wonderful staff and Shanks is as pleasant as they come with lots of personality!
