Preventive care includes routine cleanings designed to keep mouths healthy and identify at their earlier stages any signs of potential problems. It also includes maintenance of the more demanding cases with advanced periodontal care, oral hygiene instructions, radiographs, sealants and preventive resins.

Call our office today if you are experiencing a severe toothache. We offer SAME DAY APPOINTMENTS whenever possible! We will bring you in for a focused examination of the impacted tooth or area of your mouth, that will include an x-ray of the area and a thorough doctor examination. After the exam our doctors will give you a treatment plan on how to fix the problem.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans a year sustain dental injuries during competitive play, and a large number of those injured are children. A dental mouth guard can protect their beautiful smile! Research has shown that wearing custom-fit sports dental mouth guards can reduce the risk of severe injuries.

I’m not a big fan of going to the dentist. I was sold after I spoke to the very nice lady on the phone when I called to make an appointment. They were all very nice and attentive. I will certainly continue to go there.

Dr. Shedd and his staff are the best. I have a high anxiety level when it comes to dental work. But here they do everything in there power to ease that and take the time to care. In the short time I have been going, I have had a lot of work done. It has gone smoothly and as we continue my treatment plan I know I am in good hands!

The staff was so nice and extremely helpful!!! As a person of little means and no insurance it meant a lot to me to go in an establishment like this and be treated like a person who was deserving of their time and efforts. From the reception desk to the Dr himself they were all kind and thoughtful of my situation. They helped me find a way to pay and programs that I could qualify for. Thank you all for your help!!!!

I love the kindness and the atmosphere of this place. After a brief hiatus due to Covid, it was nice to return. His staff is amazing! Dr. Shedd eased my mind and answered some very important questions regarding my health. He also offered a game plan to help keep my teeth healthy and strong while battling my issues. Highly recommend this dentist.

The most friendly and professional dentistry I've experienced. Staff is sincere, friendly and knowledgeable from the front desk to all things patient care related. This is a comfortable environment, with no unusual billing practices, unnecessary procedures and no turnover. As much as I dislike dental work, I pay out-of-pocket for additional preventative cleanings every few months. I value Dr. Shedd and this team!

I like this office but I’ve been trying to call for three days and they’re phones are set to a JULY message about being closed. It is August 16, there is no way to call them without physically going up there. Poor management.

Super friendly staff! They worked hard to get the BEST (and surprisingly low) price for the work I needed while still using the top techniques and technology. Very happy to have selected Shedd of all the options out there. Many Thanks and highly recommended!

Staff is friendly and thoroughly proficient; office is professional with a modern atmosphere.
I haven't experienced any shortcuts and treatments never seem rushed. I’m seen on-time and have been worked in immediately for unexpected issues.
Work well with insurance and accommodating to my wishes to have extra cleanings throughout the year.
Dr. Shedd is an independent DMD and manages a well-motivated team!
