Shanks Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
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!

Patient Review
First time visiting, and the staff and surgeon were extremely friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond in fitting me in (unscheduled, sudden problem) and in making a follow up appointment that worked for my transportation needs. This was a very positive experience at a rather stressful time.

Patient Review
Dr. Shanks performed two extractions, a bone graft, and implants for me over a nine-month period. Initially, I was apprehensive and uncertain about the process, but Dr. Shanks’ professionalism and confidence put me at ease. He thoroughly explained my options and shared his insights, ensuring that I felt comfortable throughout my care. His work was successful, my experience was positive, and I highly recommend him to anyone in need of dental surgery. Dr. Shanks and his office are kind and professional.

Patient Review
Absolutely top notch. Not had to see an oral surgeon except one other time when I was younger. However, this entire experience far exceeded my expectations. The entire staff was extremely friendly, professional and comforting as possible. The Dr is extremely skilled and the result of his techniques are reduced pain during procedures. I hope I never need an oral surgeon again in my life but if I do I know exactly where I'm going!!!!! Do yourself a favor and go here if you need this type of service.

Patient Review
Dr. Shanks and his staff went out of their way to help me through the implant procedure. As someone who suffers with medical anxiety this was a hard experience for me, but it was pain free and surprisingly easy. Thanks so much for going the extra mile for me and my family! I would recommend this practice to anyone who needs an oral surgeon, Dr. Shanks is a compassionate professional, I was shocked at the ease of this procedure!
