Dr. Andrew Shannon, General Dentist, is passionate about dentistry. His first passion was pursuing a career in stunts; however, he soon realized that he was more talented with his hands and wanted to put them to good use to make a difference in people’s lives.
He still follows the stunt scene in his spare time and works out in the gym to keep stress free. He is married with two children and the cutest Bernoodle – a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Standard Poodle.
AACD
On a professional note, Dr. Shannon holds a Doctorate in Dental Surgery (DDS) and is accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD). The AACD encourages the highest standards of ethical conduct and responsible patient care for comprehensive cosmetic dentistry. The Accreditation process is the world’s most advanced credentialing program which encourages further education and professional growth.
Dr. Shannon has been in practice in the Bentall Centre since 1987. His focus has been on cosmetic procedures; however, he believes that each procedure he performs should be beautifully done and functionally sound. Speaking of sound, how often do you hear a dentist sing while he works – and carry a tune!
If you are another dentist looking for someone to send your patients to because you do not do certain procedures, we will treat your patients as our own but ultimately they are your patients. Please visit our Referring Doctor’s page.
