Top Level Doctors
Both Dr. Wick and Dr. Journée take pride in being defined by the dental work they complete. They are very meticulous but can also compromise given the individual patients needs and desires. Dr. Journée is active in dental leadership being a House Delegate for the Missouri Dental Association. Dr. Journée is active at the national level having served roles with the American Dental Association. He was recognized for his leadership being served with awards for accomplishments during his time on committees. Dr. Wick was accepted to the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s accelerated 6-year dental program directly out of high school in 1997. Only 25 students per year were accepted after meeting very high academic standards. After spending time in dental public health, Dr. Wick started the practice in 2004 and has been working there focusing on patient care and performing high quality restorative procedures.

Patient Feedback
Dr. Journee and staff are wonderfully professional and easy to talk to. They make the dental experience fun as well as fundamental.
I never had a “pleasant” experience at the dentist office in my first 32 years of life. I was always anxious and anticipating pain. I can laugh at that experience now. In the last 8 years, I have never had a bad experience with Dr. Wick. His bedside manner is second to none!
Our family started coming to Shoal Valley Dental approximately 2 years ago. We have to say the change has been a positive experience. The staff at Shoal Valley is amazing. They make you feel welcomed and comfortable and are accommodating to us as patients. We highly recommend Dr. Journée and Shoal Valley Dental for your family too!
As long time patients, we have found the staff and office to be friendly and professional. With an emphasis on explaining a procedure, it is calming and reassuring. A call from a Caribbean cruise with a tooth problem was handled smoothly!
