Meet Dr. Jessica Shiao Seattle, WA

I am so excited to join the team at White Center Smiles. I grew up in Ohio, then New Jersey and I’m now enjoying life in West Seattle with my family, which includes my energetic and affectionate toddler and my fluffy white dog who looks like a polar bear.

I received my Bachelor of Arts at Rutgers University and always had my heart set on taking care of patients. I decided to attend the University of Maryland, the first dental school in the United States and earn my degree in Doctor of Dental Surgery.

My husband is an avid skier and mentioned that Seattle is an awesome city. I decided to check it out and apply to a residency program here. I loved my visit and made the move to West Seattle to complete an Advanced Educational General Dentistry program.

I care very much for my patients and understand the importance of listening closely to each person’s concerns and expectations. I truly want your experience to be comfortable so that you can continue to have a lifetime of healthy teeth.

I do my best to explain dental lingo in an honest, kind manner and provide you with options. I am known to be gentle and conscious of how you are doing through every step of treatment. I put myself in your shoes and know what it’s like to be on the other side!

I attend lectures and workshops to keep up with the latest advances in oral health and dentistry. At this time, I am enrolled in a program called the Institute of Integrative Nutrition to learn how to help myself and others feel more nourished and energetic. I am passionate about preventative care and providing guidance to improving both oral and overall health. I look forward to meeting you and serving the beautiful White Center Smiles community!
