I would highly recommend Dr. Shanks and his staff. They are very nice! I got two implants last year and I returned today for a consultation on possibly another one. They are the best!

Patient Review
I saw Dr. Shanks to have a broken tooth removed & an implant put in. The whole procedure was smooth as silk & virtually pain free. The staff was great & very well versed in their job responsibilities. The whole job was done in less than an hour! If you need any work done beyond basic dentistry, I would highly recommend Dr. Shanks!!

Patient Review
My family was very happy with Dr. Shanks care of my mother who suffers from dementia. He was both patient and kind, and he took the time to explain both the procedure and the reason for antibiotics prior to the surgery. She felt very comfortable with him, and that was due to his kind and caring manner.

Patient Review
I absolutely love Dr. Shanks and his staff. He is super nice and explains every detail patiently. His staff is some of the best and friendliest I have ever had the pleasure of suffering under. I say that tongue in cheek seeing I was in for a dental implant. The procedure was practically painless and with some ibuprofen, the recovery was smooth and quick. Their ultimate goal is a successful implant and so far it is gone perfectly. I can’t wait to get my tooth! I recommend this office and staff 💯!

Excellent care by Dr. Shanks. He removed my son's wisdom teeth, provided detailed information before and after the surgery, and was very professional. I highly recommend him.

Patient Review
The entire atmosphere was wonderful. The office is comfortable and warm feeling. Everyone is very pleasant and professional. I took my 18 year old son for a consultation. Dr. Shanks explained everything clearly and made sure we understood what was going to take place. He listened to my son as well. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Got my wisdom teeth out yesterday and the surgery went great. I was super anxious and scared to be put to sleep, but everyone was so sweet and helpful.

Patient Review
Stop advertising you do "jaw surgery" when you only pull teeth like every other greedy lazy "oral surgeon" in America.
