Dr. Michael T. Shannon is a graduate of the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, and Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, where he earned his degree with honors. He completed both his internship and residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Barnes and Affiliated Hospitals at Washington University. The practice's dental implant procedure involves placing a small surgical post made of biocompatible metal or ceramic into the jawbone, where it integrates with the surrounding bone over time to support a single crown, a bridge, or a full set of replacement teeth. Bone grafting services address bone loss caused by missing teeth, periodontal disease, or trauma, with grafting material that can come from the patient, donor sources, or synthetic bone-like materials, and can be performed at the time of extraction or later to maintain facial contours and support future implant placement. Wisdom teeth removal is offered for impacted third molars, with early removal in young adults commonly recommended to prevent pain, infection, cysts, damage to adjacent teeth, and other complications.

The practice is located on Turnpike Street, with Andover Street running close by. PI Math School is about 0.1 miles away.
