Report
Besides being a calm, confident, compassionate dentist, he knew how to produce a splint that solved my morning wake-up headaches makes Dr. Sheehy worth his weight in gold. I cannot say enough good things too about his knowledge base and his willingness to respond to a painful dental problem. He will make you a partner in learning about your dental care.
