About your Dentist

Xhelo S. Shuaipaj, D.D.S and Mazar Shuaipaj, D.D.S.
"Getting to know you, and not just your smile, is very important to us. That's why we take the time to listen to all your questions and concerns. Our goal is to provide you with a dental experience beyond compare. Because it's not just your smile that matters, it's the person behind the smile."

An education that goes beyond the norm
"Our lifelong dedication to dental excellence began when we started dental school. But it didn't end there. We discovered that one way to be great dentist is to keep learning. That's why we stay at the forefront of dental technology through additional training and continuing-education courses. Our real-world experience helps with the care we give today, but our ongoing advanced training is what is vital for tomorrow."

Active in the Dental Community
"Today, there are more advances in dentistry in a year than within an entire decade just a generation ago. If we relied solely on our formal education, we might be unaware of a breakthrough technology or new procedure that could benefit you. One of the ways we continually fine-tune our knowledge is through membership in national and regional professional organizations."

Obtaining new technology for greater patient comfort, health and understanding
"We live in a time and age where dental care is comfortable and cosmetically advanced. We are very excited about our latest addition to the practice...The Smile Imaging System. Other technologies include a computer x-ray system which is 85 to 90% safer than conventional means. With this system, you can see your x-rays and intraoral pictures on a screen. The enlarged images bring a common language to you and me. We love the trust it fosters in our relationship."

Reaching Beyond Our Practice
"Giving back to a community that has given so much to us is a joy and a privelage we don't take lightly. That's why we like to spend our free time educating and helping the community."
