The personality of a dental practice is almost always a direct extension of the personality of the dentist. With Dr. Shore and Dr. Hanschu, what you see is what you get. Everything we do starts with creating an environment in which you can feel comfortable and relax. Very few people like going to the dentist, but our team wants your experience here to be different.

We start by respecting your time. Virtually every appointment starts on-time, and we understand your time is just as valuable as ours. We fully explain your options before beginning any treatments, and we encourage you to get second opinions. Interestingly, many of our best patients have come to us when looking for a second opinion on a treatment plan offered by another dentist. They immediately feel a difference in our approach, and they welcome the opportunity to be treated in a friendly and welcoming environment.

Of course, this commitment to exceptional dental care extends to the unmatched clinical skills of our staff. Leading by example, Dr. Shore continues her education, and she encourages her dental assistants, dental hygienists and treatment coordinators to do the same. All of these extra hours are invested to ensure our patients receive the absolute finest care.

We welcome the opportunity to show you the difference. We look forward to having you experience first-hand how a warm and caring environment can make you smile.

While it is easy to judge a dental practice by its waiting room and artwork, it is much more difficult to evaluate the clinical abilities of dentists. There is so much that goes into the development and execution of treatment plans, and quality of care is often measured over years, not days or weeks. Accordingly, it is very important to do your homework on any dentist you are considering to care for your smile.

Fortunately, it is very easy to measure the commitment Dr. Shore has made to provide her patients with high-quality dental care. She started in dentistry after graduating from the University of California, Berkeley and the University of the Pacific, and completing a residency program through the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). 

Since then, she has been recognized by her peers as one of the top dentists in Sacramento. In addition, Dr. Shore continues to advance her specialties and stay up on the lastest in dentistry through continual learning.
