Meet Dr. Shawn Custer

The Professional Side

Dr. Shawn Custer was born in Nebraska and attended the University of Nebraska in Lincoln for his Undergraduate degree. Upon graduation, he started his dental education at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry. After graduating in May 2017, Dr. Shawn moved to Colorado to own his own dental practice.

Dr. Shawn has spent much of his career devoted to surgical procedures. He has taken hundreds of hours of continuing education in Implants, Oral Surgery, Pterygoid Implants, Zygomatic Implants, Block Grafting, Wisdom Teeth, I.V. Sedation, and Cosmetics. Building upon this education, Dr. Shawn now teaches at the Colorado Surgical Institute, where he mentors on advanced surgical techniques and sedation.

It is Dr. Shawn’s passion to provide patients with a comfortable, pain-free experience. That is why he spends much of his clinical time sedating patients for advanced surgical procedures. He deeply desires to change the way dentistry is viewed, and he truly believes that new technology and techniques will be the backbone of progress in dentistry.

In his continued pursuit of comfortable dentistry, Dr. Shawn has been trained in Somatic Experiencing. Somatic Experiencing is a trauma healing modality that has immense power to help with medical facility trauma. Dr. Shawn uses these techniques before and after procedures to help with anxiety and fear. He also sees clients outside of the dental office.

The Personal Side

Outside the office, he spends most of his time with his wife, Geona, and three boys, Ellis, Hugh, and Calvin. Dr. Shawn and his wife enjoy exploring new things and introducing their boys to many new experiences. There is rarely a dull moment in their lives.
