“Dr. Shawn Tokunaga is the best dentist I have ever gone to. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, friendly and caring. He is using the latest techniques and equipment and he really cares about your teeth! He explained my dental issues in great detail, walked me through the treatment plan, and did an outstanding job fixing my teeth! He and his entire team (hygienist Iris, Simona and others) are top notch professionals. They all are perfectionists and it shines through from the moment you walk into their office. They always make sure my visits are comfortable and without pain! Thank you Dr. Tokunaga and the team!”

“All I have to say is... I actually look forward to my appointments because of this team. They are highly skilled but moreover, they are extremely empathetic, compassionate, and personable. I drive 30-minutes out of my way to see them because they are best in class. Thank you! Can’t wait to see you soon!!”

“Finding a good dentist might be a hassle. Doctor Tokunaga is hands down the best! Thank you for your time explaining, educating and getting back to your patients promptly. Highly recommend, don't look anywhere else.”

“A close friend had recommended Dr Tokunaga to me 7 years ago, and I am so happy they did. My first visit Dr. Tokunaga took photos of my teeth and walked me through everything on the next visit. Very detailed and helpful. He is great at presenting options, offering his recommendation and letting you make the decision. The hygienist team is awesome. If you are looking for one of the best dental teams around, this is it.”

“Dr. Tokunaga is a phenomenal dentist: in patient care/explanation and in dental expertise and precision. With previous dentists, the experience was in and out of the chair, but with Dr. Tokunaga, one experiences dedicated attention and thoughtful dental decisions. He is extremely meticulous and fully transparent in the process (for some procedures, this includes live video monitor of his work!). The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Iris is the best dental hygienist! Highly recommend”

“Dr. Tokunaga is one of the best dentists I have ever been to. The technology in the office is all state of the art and they are very professional. He, unlike many dentists in the past, took the time to listen to my needs and concerns. He gave me options and pros/cons to each so that I could make the most informed decision that was right for me. I would recommend him to anyone who asked!”

“Dr Tokunaga is amazing! By far the best dentist in the Chicago area. He recently put a crown on one of my molars and he was fantastic. His staff is super friendly and he even has massage chairs to sit in while you are being treated. His dental hygienist Iris does a super thorough job too.”

“I can't say enough good things about DAAH. They are absolutely incredible in not only producing quality work but dedicating time to explain and to educate about their whole process. I never knew what quality dentistry was before I met Dr. Tokunaga and his staff! I regarded my teeth as nuisances that I literally had no understanding of nor did I think I ever would. I would go to my typical dentist sit in the chair and then leave as if it never happened. Now I feel like I am part of the process and honestly feel a bit foolish for letting those other mediocre doctors touch my teeth. Some of the problems that I had regarding my teeth were escalated by mistreating something simple incorrectly ultimately causing me more pain. If you love yourself and care for your body and health I cannot recommend this dental office enough. They made me feel so comfortable and I really love how personable everyone was. I don't feel like a slab of meat on a conveyor belt like in other offices where they double book time and everything feels rushed. This office feels like an awesome group of people that truly care more about the patient than anything else and it really shows in how meticulous their work is! I used to dread going to the dentist but now that I know my teeth are in good hands and I get everything explained to me I feel so much relief it's honestly life changing.”

“I've been a client for 20 years. Their customer service and technology is top notch. The dental chairs even have massagers built in. Also, they've recently installed large screen TVs above those chairs so you can watch Netflix! I was still watching an episode of The Office when my procedure was finished. I actually wished the appointment went longer to see the ending. Their staff and amenities make what normally is considered an unpleasant experience enjoyable.”

“Best dentist by far I have ever been with. The place is fully equipped with state-of-art devices and tools, its location is very convenient by the I-90 highway, financially affordable and accommodating, and most importantly, the doctor and his staff are just amazing, personable, and very very thoughtful. The doctor teaches other doctors. They have been my dentist over several years now. I very strongly recommend this place. I have had dozens of root canals and two implants with him and have experienced ZERO issue on any of them afterward. My life-time dentist hands down.”

“I have only one word for my experience with Dr. Tokunaga and his staff - AMAZING. I never had better experience in my life, I never met so friendly and positive people - Dr. Tokunaga is honest, so knowledgable and so gentle (I fell asleep during my last visit). Your first visit will totally change your life, the way you look at your teeth, and I can promise you will never go back to your old dentist. Thank you for everything!”

“Hi, I want everyone to know how great this place is! I've never been so happy with going to the dentist! The whole staff is amazing, but I have to be grateful for all the people that have worked on me (i had a lot going on with my teeth) a lot of work has been done, and I am more than grateful for Shawn & Iris😁! I hope you give this place a chance to help you! It's awesome in there, a very modern, relaxing atmosphere, one of my favorites is the massaging chair, along with good music, good people and now tv choice included! I'm always excited to go and get work done without being afraid! All of them are gentle, never rough. I love it! Go in & you will wish you did this a long time ago! Thanks so much, crew💖Joella”

From the start- you are given a plan, and there's a clear road and pathway laid out for you, one that you feel confident will help you lead a healthier existence. His staff is friendly and easy to coordinate with The dentist and hygienist are thorough, quick, and [most importantly] have the most updated equipment making exams much less uncomfortable I'm always all smiles after leaving Office. Favorite dentist ever.”

“Dr. Tokunaga has been our family dentist for over 20 years. He and his staff are top-notch professionals, his equipment is state-of-the-art, and he keeps very current with the latest and best procedures and approaches to dental care. The office facility is always immaculate and comfortable. His admin staff is exceedingly friendly and polite. I recommend him to all our friends and relatives for the best dental care you can get.”

“I've been seeing Dr. Tokunaga and his staff for the past 5 years for both routine cleanings as well as a variety of dental issues. While I struggle at times with anxiety induced by dental procedures, both Shawn and his staff always make sure that I am comfortable. Unfortunately, this practice is out of network for some people, as I feel that we should be rewarding medical professionals that go the extra step like Dr. Tokunaga and his team. A few examples of going above and beyond include: extensive photography and explanation of issues/work being performed, light massage of the lumbar during all procedures, and overhead lights that don't blind you while laying back during procedures. Overall, a great practice staffed by friendly, personable professionals that really care about your dental health.”

“Dr. Tokunaga is a genius! I have been going to his office for the past 7 years, and at each visit, I am amazed by Dr. Tokunaga's knowledge, experience, craftsmanship, and kindness. He always recognizes the problem and fixes it. My teeth are healthier and better after each visit. I always tell him that he is not just the best "dentist” but that he is a “ true artist of dentistry”. His staff is just as knowledgeable and caring. I have never met such a great dental team before! I trust them with my teeth entirely! I am so grateful for the opportunity to be Dr. Tokunaga’s patient. Thank you, Dr. Tokunaga and the team!”

“My employer changed our health/dental insurance provider and my current dentist wasn't in the network. My colleague at work told me, "I have a cool dentist," and this is how I got to know Dr. Tokunaga. This happened over 20 years ago, and I'm in his care since. I thought my previous dentist was good, but Dr. Tokunaga is in a different category. Very professional, caring, no pain while in his chair. His dental work quality is outstanding and most of all he is honest. I've recommended him to everyone. I go to his office every 6 months for cleaning (BTW Irys does a beautiful job too). A few days ago I needed a minor repair at the gumline. I expected to end up with two little "patches" on my teeth and I was pleasantly surprised with the end result not showing any work done. Dr Tokunaga is passionate about his work which is quite rare nowadays. I would highly recommend him.”

“Absolutely love this dentist ( thank you Dr. Shawn ) !!! Very clean facility, and great and friendly service.. The dental assistant Simona gave me amazing service, very friendly, and made my visit very comfortable.. I can honestly say that this is the best dentist office I've ever been to. It all starts with their amazing staff!! They are very nice and very attentive they make sure they make you feel comfortable. Not only that but they are the only office that scheduled me in such short notice when I was in a bunch of pain . The quality of service is above and beyond and if I could rate them 20 Stars I would. They genuinely really care about their patients and it's hard to find an office that does. They are very flexible and will work with your budget or help you find other options...I will definitely be returning and referring friends and family.”

“Dr. Tokunaga is the best dentist my family and I have ever gone to. He is a perfectionist and this applies to his entire staff as well. I will not name my former dentist but all he did was clean my teeth for 20 years so I should have realized earlier that I needed to switch to someone progressive and forward-thinking and was lucky to find Dr. T via my kid's ortho. He is wonderful and I am glad I found his practice.”
January, 23 2020 Peggy Goodwin
“Absolute best! Dr. Tokunaga was referred to me by my ortho during my braces visits, and couldn't have been happier to meet him. Everyone at the office is extremely trained, and equipment is up to date. I'm sad that I now live in Florida and haven't found anyone half as good as Dr. Tokunaga. Highly recommend!!”
