Shanahan and Cheung DDS

I cannot recommend this practice highly enough. I became a patient of Dr. Shanahan in 1991, as did my then four-​year-​old daughter. The standard of care has been uniformly excellent over 25 years. Dr. Cheung was an outstanding addition to the practice, teaming with Dr. Shanahan to offer a truly comprehensive approach to oral care. They were able to identify some early signs of gum disease and refer me to a periodontist quickly enough so that I avoided losing a tooth. And every one of the hygienists has been extremely skilled and gentle, which is important to me because I have serious issues with plaque. Finally, everyone in the practice– doctors, hygienists, office assistants – is extremely personable. A trip to the dentist is not something that most of us look forward to, but Drs. Shanahan and Cheung have done a wonderful job creating a pleasant and professional atmosphere for their patients.

I regulary see Dr. Cheung but have seen Dr. Shanahan in emergency situations. Both have great personalities and outstanding skills. Would highly recommend this dental practice. The office is also well run and all paperwork, billing, etc up to date. Hygenists are top notch.

Great office staff and hygenists. Shanahan and Cheung are among the best dentists I’ve ever encountered. Highly recommend to everyone.

Friendly, caring and skilled staff! Our entire family has been going there for over 20 years.

If you need a very knowledgable Dentist, Dr. Cheung is wonderful! He is very thorough, explains everything and cares about the patient. His dental hygienist’s are awesome too. Best cleaning I’ve had!

If you want the best dentists, dental hygienists, and staff in the Naperville/​Aurora area, come here. Our family has been going to Dr Shanahan since 1995 – when it was just my husband and me. The care we have received over the years is impeccable. The doctors go out of their way to make certain you have a pain-​free experience and that you are fully educated on the procedure. As our family has grown, I’ve been thrilled to watch the excellent care given to my children, the oldest of whom is now 19. Everyone on staff takes an interest in each of us and remembers details about our lives, even across 6 months spans between cleanings. The office is newly updated. Parking is ample. I encourage you to become one of their patients. You won’t regret your choice.

Came in for an initial appointment with Dr. Cheung. I chipped my tooth while I was eating and I didn’t have any previous dental work done before except cleanings, so I was very, VERY nervous about Anesthetic (numbing). I don’t mind the dentist, but I hate needles! Needless to say, Dr. Cheung understood my concerns. He talked me right through it, and I kid you not, I FELT NOTHING! I was waiting and waiting, and I felt nothing! The most difficult part was calming myself beforehand! I know now that on future appointments, I won’t have to prepare myself because it was no big deal at all! He is truly gifted in this department!
Dr. Cheung presented and showed my problem area with a camera on the tv screen above my head (very nice since you don’t have to deal with being positioned up and down on the dental chair) and showed me the dental work after it was complete. He is very informative in giving different options of treatment I am able to get, with the possibilities of where each one may lead. He also presents information with pictures to give a visual on what he is talking about and videos as well. I felt like I was part of the procedure the whole time. Dianna assisted Dr. Cheung the whole time and is very nice!
What is nice about their office too is that they are able to offer in house crown restoration. Also! Something to consider if you don’t have DENTAL INSURANCE: Their office offers affordable IN HOUSE insurance! You don’t have to deal with insurance companies and are able to get the treatment you need at a discounted rate, with most cleanings included in their yearly plan. Sounds pretty amazing to me!
The office is very clean, organized, professional, modern, and the staff upfront are very nice! They are a digital office so you complete your paperwork on an iPad: the questions were straight to the point and not long at all. There is a Keurig if you want a drink beforehand. Wait time was less than 10 minutes.
Who can say they look forward to dental appointments when they have to schedule them? I can! Thanks Dr. Cheung!

Dr. Shanahan and his employees are fantastic. I asked a friend for a recommendation and struck gold! You are greeted with enthusiasm from the time you enter the office until you leave. The whole staff cares about you. The hygienists are superb. I have super sensitive teeth and I do not feel a thing. Everything is explained to you, options, pre-​insurance, etc. They contact you if there is a cancellation and can get you an earlier appointment. Reminders are sent to you about appointments. Everyone is pleasant. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I was sent to Dr. Shanahan after my long-​time dentist retired. I couldn’t be more pleased. Both doctors in the practice and the staff are wonderful — they are thorough, patient, friendly and make something not so fun (dental work) a generally pleasant experience. The office is clean and inviting. I’ve been really impressed by the whole experience every time I’m there.

Long time patient of this doctor. Gentle doctor and friendly staff. Really like the modern office (TVs in the ceiling of the rooms!) and great care. They have this cool technology that can make your crown in the same visit (really helped with my schedule right during the holidays when I broke a tooth!!) Weird to say that I and my family actually enjoy going to the dentist but we feel like they treat us like family. Definitely would recommend
