EXCELLENTBased on 41 reviewsPosted onSharon JTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We love Dr Shore’s office and staff, but we will miss Jennifer. I had my appointment today and to be honest I had missed a few cleanings, the office didn’t make me feel bad about it, they were happy that I was back. Make your appointment today, don’t procrastinate like I did.Posted onG MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Twenty-five-plus years I have been blessed with the high levels of competency and integrity of Dr. Shore and her staff. No dread coming here. Always a feeling of safety, that I am receiving their best care delivered with warmth and genuine concern for my best outcome. I am grateful, and recommend to you with no reservation.Posted onBlair RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephanie Shore is the finest dentist that has ever worked on my teeth, and that's saying something as I am 84 years old. This time, it was a crown replacement and a rebuild of a lateral incisor, where an old (and very large) composite filling had fallen out (both the work of another dentist years ago). She handled both procedures in about 2-1/2 hours, matching the tooth color and the resultant bite comfort level perfectly. I walked in with a "fang" in front, and left looking human. She is also the finest Novocain administrator I have ever known. Rarely is there any pain, either when administering or during her work afterwards. I cannot recommend her highly enough.Posted onRonald KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Exceptional dentist.
