Dr. Shahir Abdel-Malek

Dental care in the south metro doesn’t have to mean a long drive. Dr. Shahir Abdel-Malek sees patients at 6105 Cahill Ave in Inver Grove Heights, right where the neighborhood shifts from quiet cul-de-sacs to the steady hum of Cahill’s retail strip. Routine cleanings, fillings, and crowns are handled with the kind of efficiency that turns a necessary visit into a quick stop between errands; the office also offers emergency slots for sudden toothaches or chipped teeth. When the schedule fills up, a quick call to (651) 451-9101 usually secures an appointment within a day or two.

South St. Paul and Inver Grove Heights share more than a school district—they share a practical approach to healthcare that values proximity and predictability. That’s why many residents keep this dentist’s number saved in their phones. Directions and hours are easiest to pull up on a map before heading out, especially if you’re cutting across the river from Eagan or Mendota Heights. If you’re new to the area and need a local provider, this is one of those addresses you’ll want to jot down.
