Meet Bryan Shin DDS
My team and I are dedicated to treating our patients like family: professionally, with respect for their needs and compassion for their situations.
As a dentist, I want to help each of my patients with their oral health and work with them to achieve their dental goals. By listening to and learning from my patients, I am able to build a trusting connection and gain an understanding of their needs and expectations. This allows me to design dental care unique to the individual, for the best experience and results.
~ Dr. Bryan Shin
Background, Education, and Experience
Born in Seoul, South Korea, Dr. Bryan Shin grew up in Ohio. He attended The Ohio State University for his undergraduate studies and The Ohio State University College of Dentistry, where he obtained his Doctorate of Dental Surgery.
Dr. Shin has served in the US Army for 12 years and has been deployed as a dental officer. He is proud to be a member of the United States military and appreciates the support of the US Army in his education and life. Giving back to and helping his community is one way Dr. Shin shows his appreciation for this support.
In practice, Dr. Shin finds the greatest reward in helping each patient with their dental health and achieving their goals. He was not the best dental patient when younger and, as a result, had many oral health issues. Knowing how reluctant, anxious, and apprehensive patients think and feel gives him insight into what care will be of benefit to each individual.
He enjoys interacting with and getting to know patients personally, while helping everyone achieve and keep a brighter, healthier smile.
