Dr. M. Shane Stevenson DMD, MD

Dr. M. Shane Stevenson DMD, MD handles the kind of oral surgery cases that general dentists typically refer out—wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, corrective jaw surgery, and facial trauma repair. The practice operates from 1401 Stratford Rd SE in Decatur, a stretch of road that’s more functional than flashy, lined with medical offices and the occasional fast-food stop. This isn’t the place for routine cleanings or fillings; it’s where you end up when the problem involves bones, deep tissue, or reconstructive work. Sedation options are part of the protocol here, which makes sense given the nature of the procedures.

Booking a consultation means calling (256) 355-1242—no online scheduling shortcuts, just a direct line for setting up pre-op evaluations or follow-ups. The office sits near the intersection with Highway 31, so it’s accessible whether you’re coming from the south side of town or the more suburban pockets near the river. For exact directions or to double-check the location, the map will confirm what you’re looking for. Decatur isn’t short on dental practices, but not all of them handle surgery—so when the issue goes beyond a cavity, this is one of the names that comes up.
