Your Oral Health Reflects Your Overall Health

Medical science believes that most universal illnesses demonstrate oral signals that indicate there may be a health problem in the patient. Your dentist will notice any unusuality during your oral exam.

If you are experiencing excessive bad breath or dry mouth. Tell your dentist, if you have experienced, swollen, or bleeding gums, or a sore in your mouth recently talk to your dentist during your six-month checkup. Some of these issues could be a warning sign that there is a health issue that needs medical attention.

A simple dental x-ray can show signs of bone loss or TMJ. Seeing your dentist every six months for cleaning could save your life. In many cases, a dentist may be the first health care provider to diagnose a health problem in its early stages.

This is just another reason to have regular oral examinations and see your dentist. Regular healthy habits can lower your risk of both gum disease and heart disease.

Reviews

If you are sitting in Dr. Shannon’s office reading this, you are in good hands. I began seeing Dr. Shannon in December 2008 and now my entire family has switched to him for our dental needs. I have may years of poor dental experiences that have left me with ongoing problems and some fears of the dentist. I now can come in with no apprehension. Dr. Shannon is not only very skilled and professional, he is very caring. He has called me to follow up after procedures and has treated me in an emergency when I was in pain. I know that he will provide the very best care with his up to date equipment. His staff is also very professional and helpful. Lisa will help relax you and keep you smiling. Ginger is very helpful in arranging appointments and processing the financial aspects promptly and pleasantly. I am very happy to have finally found a dentist who is top quality and compassionate.

Dr. Shannon and his wonderful staff are always there for me. They’re more than just performing a job, they’re caring and make you feel as if you’re the only patient who frequents the office.

I arrived in Dr. Shannon’s office after having had braces, two bridges and four previous dentists. I had so much substandard work done in the past that I was very happy to be referred to Dr. Shannon especially after seeing his great work first hand on one of his patients. Although impressed with his work, I wasn’t sure what he could do to rectify what had been previously done by others. He not only righted many wrongs, but he implemented new and necessary dental artistry that surpassed anything done previously and at a very fair cost. Dr. Shannon’s thorough exams (testing for tongue cancer? Who knew?), his caring bedside manner, and his honest approach to your specific needs was what I had been searching 20 years for in a dentist. His medical care and dental work is far superior to any dentist I’ve visited in the most posh parts of New York City. The work that he has performed on me has instilled a renewed confidence in me and his staff is friendly and highly efficient in ensuring everyone is treated with care! I swell with pride every time someone mentions that I have a great smile and proudly refer everyone to check out Dr. Shannon’s practice. You will not regret it!

Where can I start! My experience with Dr. Shannon and his staff was wonderful. Very friendly, all my questions were answered to my fullest satisfaction. Dr. Shannon was kind, caring, and most importantly did a wonderful job with my work that needed to be done. I am totally satisfied. Thank you Dr. Shannon, Lisa and Ginger.
– Regina Borelli

My experience with Dr. Shannon and staff has been positive and caring. Recently I was fitted with a four tooth partial plate and was very hesitant about inserting and wearing this everyday. The fit was perfect from day one and I don’t have any difference in my mouth wearing this. The service is caring and quality which is what people want from health care professionals.
– Dolores Darnell

I came to your practice with several dental problems and a lot of concern. Your professionalism, expertise, and friendly way of handling these problems, not only gave me confidence, but made me very comfortable that they would be resolved. I can’t thank you enough for the beautiful work you did on my front teeth! You made them look like my originals and I can now smile with ease. I also appreciate that you offer long appointments, doing more than one tooth per appointment. I also want to thank Ginger, Susan, and Claudia for their professional yet friendly manner! Each one took the time to explain what they were doing which was very helpful. You have a great staff! Thanks for a very positive experience!
– Jill LaMonica

As a child, I developed a phobia of dentists after visiting a dentist who’s bedside manner was something out of “Little Shop of Horrors”. I was determined to overcome my fears and searched all over the island for a highly recommended, competent, patient dentist who listened My prayers were answered by Dr. Shannon and his wonderful staff. They love working here and it shows. When the time came for my 8 year old daughter to have 2 teeth extracted, I did not hesitate to bring her here. She’ll have the experience I wish I would have had.
– Dana Welsby

I have to tell you. This has been the best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist. Not only was Dr. Shannon and his staff professional and friendly; they put me at ease, kept me abreast of all procedures and the quality of his work is excellent. I am very pleased with the work I had done here and would highly recommend Dr. Shannon and his staff. Kudos.
– Milt Gonzalez

Dr. Shannon has done an outstanding job on my smile. I grew up with damage to my adult teeth from medication given to me as a toddler. My teeth were discolored most of my adult life. I can now smile with confidence. Dr. Shannon took his time and did a wonderful job.
– Jennifer Whelan

I’ve never known a more caring dentist like Dr. Shannon. Aside from being there for any emergency that may arise, he brings compassion to the job. Personally, I’ve known many dentist, but none can hold a candle to Dr. Shannon.
