Gentle, Modern Dental Care for Your Family in Mission

"We love Dr. Shortell. Great work, service, and friendly staff. We always feel like family when we go. He is also great with our boys ages 4 and 5 years old. They have had many fillings and dental work and never have issues going back or being scared."

"I've been going to Dr. Shortell's practice for as long as I can remember! He is so understanding and knows his stuff. Jennifer is always so good and careful to get every last stain off of my teeth and so friendly. I always feel like I am seeing old friends."

"Ive been a patient for 20+ years. Shortell is always up to date with the most current dental techniques and equipment. Outstanding techs/dental hygenists. I still have all my original shiny healthy teeth thanks to this office!"

"Dr. Shortell has been doing dentistry for over 30 years. He uses lasers and CT technology for more precise results. I love his cosmetic dentistry...beautiful esthetics. Staff very helpful with questions regarding my dental needs, insurance coverage, and payment options."

"I have been a patient since 1985 while my spouse originally chose to go elsewhere (closer to home) for herself and our young children. My wife became unsatisfied with her dentist is now a patient of Dr. Shortell. My children who are now adults have also had unsatisfactory experiences elsewhere so they have decided to be patients of Dr. Shortell. The quality of service is exemplary plus the staff has always consisted of only the best. 30 plus years of nothing but satisfaction where he has rebuilt a jaw for one of my daughters plus many other specialty services including urgent after hours treatment. We feel blessed to have bean able to find Dr. Shortell."

"Dr. Shortell is a true professional that takes a conservative approach to dentistry. No matter the dental work required, Dr. Shortell always takes the time to fully explain what to expect and ensures the comfort of the patient during the procedure. My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Shortell for over twenty-five years. During this time we have needed dental services including routine cleaning, check-ups fillings to more complex root canals', crowns and implants. My crowns and implant fit perfectly. If you want to feel like a valued patient and receive the services of an excellent dentist this is the place to go!"

"Growing up, I had some terrible experiences with dentists. When it comes to my teeth, I am skittish and a ball of anxiety. But there is a reason I now go to Dr. Shortell's dental office. I trust Dr. Tom and his staff. He knows teeth and he knows me. He does what needs to be done and he does his best to make sure I am comfortable through it all. His staff is awesome as well. Lacy is always there to greet you with a smile. Jennifer is a great hygienist. She's very encouraging but not afraid to dole out the 'homework' if needed. The entire staff excels in making it as comfortable as possible when you walk through the doors. I appreciate the way they have taken care of me and my family over the years!"

"I love Dr. Shortell and his office staff! My entire family goes to him and I've seen him most of my life. He's kind, gentle and makes you feel comfortable. I highly recommend this office for your dental care needs!"

"Dr. Shortell is very conservative in his practice and very knowledgeable in all fields. His implants, crowns, extractions, and restorative work are of the highest standards. The welcoming and friendly atmosphere of the office puts patients at ease and allows them to feel at home. I highly recommend Dr. Shortell to all my friends and family."

"Everyone here is super nice and the whole process is very expedient. Shortell clearly knows everything there is to know about teeth and is very much committed to helping you keep them in the best condition possible. Overall a pleasant dentist experience which I'm surprised is even possible."

"Dr. Tom and his staff are amazing! I've had a lot of issues with my teeth and dental visits in the past have been anything but pleasant. But I actualy look forward to going to Dr. Tom. He always does a great job and never pushes me to have something done that I don't actually need."

"This is such a great office to go to. Everyone there is very welcoming, friendly, and energetic. Dr. Tom takes great care of me, I am not one that likes the dentist do to past bad experiences but I have never had any problems or bad experiences with them. Keep up the good work!"

"I've been going to Dr. Shortell for about 10 years. Great dentist with a great staff. I have had two dental implants done and never needed a painkiller. Zero pain during recovery. I don't think you can get any better than that."
