Happy National Dentist Day!🦷🪥

We appreciate your leadership, your sense of humor, and the way you support the whole team. Thank you for your dedication, patience, and the care you show to every patient that walks through the door.

Here’s to healthy smiles, happy patients, and the best dentists a dental team could ask for!🦷🤍

A week to celebrate three of our favorite people at the office? Count us in! Colleen, Emily and Ellie- we don't know what we would do without you! Thanks for being the calming presence for our patients as they have dental procedures completed while listening to Dr. Shao's dad jokes and Dr. Katie's singing! Enjoy your goodies from Hickory Grove Homestead and Lubben Vineyards & Wines!

On this last day of Children's Dental Health Month, we thank the Strawberry Hill Elementary School Kindergarten and the Head Start Anamosa Preschool for having Dr. Katie come and share some fun dental knowledge with their classes!! It's always fun to get to share with kids that dentistry is cool and not scary...and to spend time with Dr. Katie and Dr. Chong's daughter!

Being part of a small family-owned office means that "any other tasks" may include shoe-tying, walking kids to the bus, judging sister coloring contests, warming up breakfast and listening to SuperKitties play in the back office.
Sometimes we (Chong and Katie) look around and it really hits us that we are so lucky to be surrounded by people (and their family members!) that not only care for our patients, but also our family! To the point that our oldest daughter recently told us that "Sometimes I think I have a whole bunch of moms at the office!"
Enjoy some pictures of the true Shao family- including some staff members of the past!

Join us in wishing a very Happy Birthday to Heather, one of our fantastic hygienists! Tradition says Heather needs to be held in her birthday pictures, so why not have everyone hold her after her birthday Taco Bar!! Have the best day celebrating, Heather!
