He has been my dentist for a while now and I absolutely love going there. From the wonderfully delightful Sherri from the front desk to the joyful and funny Dr. Shin, they set such a comfortable and easy-going atmosphere that i do not ever have any anxiety when there. Dr. Shin explains everything with clarity and with such knowledge I trust him at his every word and his dental work speaks for itself. Hes a consummate professional while also being a pleasure to talk to.

Really nice experience. I got an initial cleaning and then one filling so far and I am very impressed. Dr. Shin is very personable and funny while being very informative and direct. I really appreciated him and his team. Could not recommend more!

I highly recommend Dental Care of Glen Ellyn. Dr. Shin and his staff are kind, friendly and comforting. As a person who experiences anxiety about dentist visits, I can honestly say that I feel comfortable here. Dr. Shin is very good about explaining step by step what is happening. I have recommended this dental practice to my adult children and family. I am a happy patient!

I rarely write reviews but I am blown away by Dr. Shin’s practice - I unfortunately fell on ice and cracked my front tooth 10 years ago. I ended up needing a crown and I was mortified since it was my front tooth. Dr. Shin, Karen and Sharon were so reassuring and made me feel like I was in good hands. I just got my permanent crown placed this morning and you can’t even tell. The shade match is impeccable and Dr. Shin’s work is beautiful. Such an amazing team, I can’t thank them enough!!!

I couldnt be happier with the treatment I have received from Dr. Shin and his wonderful staff. I had not been to a dentist in quite some time after some bad experiences but from day one they made me feel comfortable. My teeth were in bad shape but after a couple of appointments, they are starting to look so much better. Dr. Shin always makes sure that I am doing ok during a procedure, he is really caring with his patients. I cannot thank them enough for making me feel more confident when I smile!

Dr. Shin is honestly great! I’ve been going to him for years and have never been disappointed. Prior to going to Dr. Shin I was terrified of the dentist but he makes the experience extremely pleasant and I’m no longer terrified. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

Dr. Shin and his staff are the best!!! I love his sincere personality and truly appreciate his honesty in terms of what needs to be done. I have three kiddos who love coming to him. In fact my youngest, who is 4, had to have a couple visits and each time he was so relaxed in that chair that he just napped during the entire visit. Dr. Shin, you are a keeper for life 😁🦷!

My wife and I have been going to see Dr. Shin since we lived in Oak Park and he was with a practice there. After moving to Wheaton in 2013 we sad to have to switch to a different practice out here. We were very happy to learn a few years ago that Dr. Shin had moved out here and started his own practice, and have been going to Dental Care of Glen Ellyn for all our dental needs ever since.Dr. Shin is great--personable, professional, and thorough. I dreaded going to the dentist when we were going to a different practice that still used film x-rays that nearly gagged me to death every time I had to have them done. No such issues with Dr. Shin. His office is up to date and uses all the most modern equipment, including all the COVID protections. 100% recommended.

Dr. Shin is a wonderful, caring dentist! I was hesitant about going to the dentist since I have not gone in years. He was extremely kind and constantly checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable. He also told me what to expect and talked me through what he was doing at each step. When I came back to get my cavities filled, he called a few days later to follow up. I will definitely continue to go to him.

Dr. Shin and his team are amazing. Start to finish the experience is professional, friendly and easy. I am not a big fan of the dentist as a concept but going here is a pleasure. Dr. Shin also has a great “chairside” manner and makes the time fly even when using the scraper! Thanks.

Dr. Shin and his team are amazing. First, and most important, I always feel comfortable and trust that I will be cared for in a pain-free way! I used to be afraid of going to the dentist for many years, and now I have no concerns at all about coming in. Dr. Shin and staff is upbeat, fun, and funny--an added bonus, sometimes laughing at the dentist!Dr. Shin uses a careful application and waits until the novocaine takes effect. By the time he gets started, I dont feel a thing. Ive had several procedures including crowns and root-canals, always comfortable and, again, pain-free. Our kids are all teenaged or older, so we all go to see Dr. Shin. Nobody complains about going to the dentist.They also have a professional appointment-setting system that sends texts to remind me of my appointment, and on the day of, to fill out the Covid screening questions before I arrive.If you are considering a new dentist, you cannot go wrong with Dr. Shin and his team at Dental Care of Glen Ellyn, (in the heart of the Village adjacent to the train station). Thanks Doctor Shin!!

Prompt, professional and friendly. I visited Dr.Shin during Covid-19 and was really impressed at their meticulous protocol and care to keep me safe. Everyone involved in my care was excellent from the receptionist to the dental hygienist to of course the dentist! Everything was efficient and comprehensive and I was kept in the loop every step of the way. Both my 3 and 6 year old also had their exams and it was the easiest yet! Staff were great keeping them engaged and making visiting the dentist a positive experience. They literally couldn’t wait to brush their teeth with their new toothbrushes as soon as we got home.

Dr. Brian Shin is incredibly skilled, knowledgeable and personable. He has treated me for several years beginning when he was with another practice and I committed to a forty minute commute when he relocated to start his own practice! That’s just how exceptional he is and his services are affordable. Dr. Shin and his entire staff are very professional, friendly and makes everyone feel welcome. I highly recommend Dental Care of Glen Ellyn!

Dr. Shin does excellent dental work. I am impressed with his knowledge and abilities. Dr. Shin made a beautiful crown for me on a tooth that other dentists may not have been able to save. Dr. Shin clearly explains everything before and during his procedures. He has a relaxed personality which puts me at ease. I feel fortunate to have found this dentist. He is a true perfectionist and a very nice person.

Excellent dentist all around. Highly professional, knowledgeable, and best of all, a truly kind, caring and honest person. There are very few like him. He is definitely worth changing your current dentist for... even if it is a drive out to his office, there are things to do in downtown Glen Ellyn to make your visit a nice outing.Relaxing waiting area, very helpful and sweet dental assistant and nice front desk receptionist.

Dr Shin, Sharon, Karen, and the team are amazing!! They are all very friendly and make visiting the dentist a not-so-terrible experience. I definitely recommend this dentist for families with children because Dr Shin is gentle and explains the dental process as he works on your teeth. The prices are affordable and there options for people who don’t have insurance. Make the change now and visit Dr Shin for all your dental and teeth cleaning needs!

Excellent experience. Attentive care, friendly staff, clean office and very nice technology. Dr. Shin is easy to talk with and answered all my questions. During the appointment, you have a full view your digital x-rays, so you feel like you are a more active participant in your care and can really appreciate his dental expertise more fully. Overall, Im very happy to have found Dr. Shins practice.

I had my 1st appt with Dr. Shin for a routine cleaning and I was very impressed with the service provided by him and his staff. They explained every step of the way what was being done and Dr. Shin provided great instructions on how to properly care for my sensitive teeth and gums for better future health. The Dental Care staff from Sharon who first greeted me to CeCe who shot my films to Dr. Shin, this group is a very efficient and professional yet personable team.

Our family had an excellent experience with Dr. Shin and his staff.When I called to schedule appointments with each of our 5 family members, Sharon was friendly, polite and knowledgeable. She understood our coverage and she was patient and mindful in providing us with options for appointment times that would be most convenient for us.Each of our appointments started right on schedule. Dr. Shin and his assistant were thorough and they make it a point to educate each of us following our exams. He provides high resolution detailed imaging on flat screen TV’s. More significantly, he explains things in layman’s terms.On another note, he is great with kids (4, 9 and 11). He shared techniques with them for brushing their teeth and flossing more effectively.We enthusiastically recommend Dr. Shin!

Dr. Shin, Sharon, and Arisha made my visit so easy and painless. From the minute I set up my appointment to arriving and having my procedure done, I was so impressed by the kind and professional service! Out of all of the dental work I have had done, this was also the most pain-free. I could barely feel the numbing process/needle, which is usually the worst part of a dental procedure! This was my first visit, and I’ve already scheduled my cleaning with these guys...I will be coming back for all of my future work!

Dr. Shin has been my dentist for over 10 years and I’m so happy to have found him. Prior to, I didn’t have the best luck with dentists. He does amazing work. Gives his honest feedback and takes the time answer any questions I may have (I’m very particular about my teeth). What a pleasure it as been to be his patient. I currently reside in Aurora and making the 45 min drive to Glen Ellyn is not up for discussion. IT’S A MUST! His staff is also amazing! Always very polite and kind.

I have a fear of the dentist and after a few bad experiences, I just stopped going to the dentist for almost 7 years. Finally, I decided to find a new dentist and try again. I found Dr. Shins office to be located conveniently in downtown Glen Ellyn. His office is clean and calm and his staff is really welcoming and very friendly. I was instantly put at ease. Dr. Shin was reassuring and friendly, never once making me feel bad for having missed so many visits. While I still don’t look forward to going to the dentist, I know after visiting Dr. Shin’s office I won’t wait 7 years to go back. I’ve already scheduled my next exam!

Dr. Shin and his office staff were amazing. He answered all my questions, concerns, and fears. He was patient, honest, ethical and most importantly knowledgeable and skilled. The office worked with me on a payment plan to make sure I received the best care regardless if I had insurance or not. This is truly a practice that cares and goes above and beyond for their patients.

Dr. Shin and his staff are outstanding! I don’t even know where to start with how great this office is. For as long as I can remember, going to the dentist has been a torturous experience that I dread more than anything. Every single time I walk into this office, I am greeted in such a cheerful, kind manner. Dr. Shin is incredible at what he does and is always so kind, gentle, patient, knowledgeable, and funny! They care about their patients and take time to make sure they are receiving the best possible care!! If you scared or don’t like visiting the dentist....go to Dr. Shin because I promise, you will no longer have those feelings. I actually enjoy going to the dentist now! Kudos to dental care of Glen Ellyn...you guys sure know how to treat patients!

We started going to Dr. Shin a year ago and are so happy to have made the switch! He takes his time answering any questions and is detailed in his explanations of everything. He makes sure youre comfortable at all times. He personally follows up with a phone call after youve had any kind of work done (fillings, etc). His staff is great, too! Everyone is very friendly and the office is clean and updated. Highly recommend.

Dr. Shin and his staff are absolutely amazing! I have just recently started going to him and I honestly could not be more pleased with the care I have received. I brought my 3 year old daughter to see him as well and he was fantastic with her! He was patient and really made her comfortable and she actually enjoyed going! And my husband also goes to him as well and was so impressed. Both Dr. Shin and the staff are so friendly and accommodating and treat you with respect and make you feel comfortable. I have nothing but great things to say and I highly recommend Dr. Shin!!

I always feel welcome and respected when seeing Dr. Shin. His staff is so caring, helpful and knowledgeable. He himself is always willing to answer my questions. I look forward to going to the dentist now!UPDATE: Now since COVID I have been really picky with where I go and who I do business with. I feel completely safe at Dr. Shins practice. They have elevated their standards and I feel they are keeping my safety in mind. Give them a try if you are ever hesitant about a dentist and or a dentist in the times of COVID. I recommend it!

Dr. Shin and his team are the very best! My entire family goes to Dr. Shin and we do not trust our dental needs with anyone EXCEPT Dr. Shin. With emergency dental care and root canal expertise, Dr. Shin is thorough, understanding, and professional. Hes great with children so its definitely an awesome place where the entire family can be cared for. Dr. Shin is like family and hopefully this review will help everyone else feel like Dental Care of Glen Ellyn can be their family too!

Im so glad that the reviews here in yelp/google were spot on with the reviews! Its great when you get a sense when a business truly appreciates your business. Sharon at the front desk was great - she greets you with a smile and makes you feel welcome. Im a new patient and getting my records from my prior provider and setting up my insurance information was seamless thanks to Sharon. Dr. Shin was very detailed in his explanation with my dental health which I highly appreciate. He provided me the best cost vs benefit breakdown about getting a possible crown or just a filling. I got a filling and feeling that I found a practice thats not always going to be providing me only the pricier options.

Review №57

I have always had a very serious fear of going to the dentist. Recently I have had to overcome my fear and see a dentist because of teeth issues. Dr. Shin is absolutely amazing! I have seen him twice in the last 4 months, for tooth extractions, and both visits have been great. I consider myself to be a difficult patient, due to my fear & anxiety. Dr. Shin was so patient with me and never made me feel like I was a nuisance. He takes his time to explain everything and is very gentle. I did not feel the shots of novacaine or the actual extraction. I would highly recommend Dr. Shin to anyone looking for a dentist, especially if you have anxiety or fear of dental work, you will be so happy you did! Also, everyone that works in his office is so friendly and kind!

Review №64

I started seeing Dr. Shin after my other dentist semi-retired. After trying a few other dentists in the area, I am so glad I found Dental Care of Glen Ellyn. Dr. Shin filled a tooth for me that was worn down from grinding and removed an older mercury filling of mine that was deteriorating. I felt no pain during the procedure and I felt great a couple hours after the Novocaine wore off. I am usually sensitive to dental procedures and sometimes react poorly to anesthetic of any kind. Dr. Shin put me at ease and I had no bad reactions to the anesthesia. I like how Dr. Shin explains everything to you while he is working on you and shows you the finished result with photos of your mouth. It definitely helps calm you and makes you feel like a partner in the process.
