We have some exciting news to share. Dr. Julianna Shamoon, a Board-Certified Periodontist and Dental Implant Specialist, has joined the Meridian team and is now seeing patients at our Brookfield and Shorewood offices.
If you’ve been putting off treatment for gum diseases, receding gums, bone loss, or missing teeth, or if you’re a referring doctor looking for an additional periodontist you can confidently entrust your patients to, this is a great time to connect with Meridian. Dr. Shamoon brings advanced specialty training, deep clinical experience, and a warm patient-first approach that puts even the most anxious patients at ease.
A Specialist Shaped by Service and Compassion
Dr. Shamoon’s path to Meridian is one that speaks volumes about the kind of clinician she is. After earning her dental degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, she completed a competitive two-year General Practice Residency at Jesse Brown Veterans Affairs Hospital in Chicago, caring for our nation’s veterans in a high-volume, high-stakes environment.
She then pursued advanced specialty training in Periodontics and Dental Implant Surgery at the Clement J. Zablocki Veterans Affairs Hospital right here in Milwaukee. Along the way, she served as an Associate Program Director and Periodontist at Jesse Brown VA, mentoring future dentists while continuing to deliver hands-on care to patients who needed it most. From there, Dr. Shamoon built on that foundation with years of private practice in specialty periodontal and implant care, honing her clinical expertise with every patient before bringing that depth of skill to Meridian.
That combination of technical precision forged in the most demanding clinical settings, paired with a genuine heart for people, is exactly what we look for when adding to the Meridian family.
A Note from Dr. Lisa Teel, Founding Periodontist at Meridian
“As someone who has spent my career working with our doctors and building Meridian into a practice where patients and referring doctors feel genuinely cared for, we don’t take the decision to bring on a new specialist lightly. Dr. Shamoon is a rare find. She has the clinical depth and precision you’d expect from someone with her caliber of training, but what truly sets her apart is the way she connects with patients. Her compassion is real, and you feel it from the moment you meet her.
I feel fortunate to welcome a specialist of her experience and skill to our team. Her passion for dental implants and periodontal care is going to make a meaningful difference for the Milwaukee community, both for patients who deserve to be seen efficiently by someone they can trust and for referring doctors who want to know their patients are in the best possible hands. Dr. Shamoon embodies what Meridian is all about: clinical specialty-level excellence delivered with genuine compassion and a true partnership with referring doctors to achieve the best smile results together.
I’m so excited about what she brings to the Meridian family and to this community.

Periodontal and Dental Implant Services with Dr. Shamoon
Dr. Shamoon provides a full range of periodontal and dental implant services, and she works closely with our endodontic team as well. That is a big part of what makes Meridian’s collaborative, multidisciplinary approach so effective for our patients and referring doctors.
Dental Implants
Missing a tooth? Whether it’s one tooth, several, or you’re looking to stabilize dentures, dental implants are often the best long-term solution for restoring both function and appearance. Dr. Shamoon places implants designed to look, feel, and work like your natural teeth. Allowing you to eat, smile, and speak with confidence.
Bone Grafting & Bone Restoration
Sometimes, the jaw needs a stronger foundation before an implant can be placed. Dr. Shamoon performs bone grating procedures including ridge augmentation, sinus lifts, and implant site optimization to rebuild lost bone and prepare your mouth for long-term implant success. Think of it as reinforcing the ground before building a house. You need a stable base to ensure everything stays secure.
Gum Disease Treatment & Periodontal Therapies
Gum disease affects millions of adults and, left untreated, can lead to tooth loss and serious health complications. Dr. Shamoon treats all stages of periodontal disease using advanced techniques including LANAP® laser therapy, a minimally invasive alternative to traditional gum surgery, as well as modern gum grafting techniques (VISTA and tunneling) for patients dealing with gum recession. Her goal is always to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible while helping you heal comfortably.
Saving Teeth & Tooth Removal
When a natural tooth is in trouble, a periodontist is the best specialist to determine whether it can be saved. Dr. Shamoon works to preserve natural teeth whenever possible. When extraction is the best option, she ensures you’re set up for the best path forward. Whether that’s a dental implant, bone preservation, or another restorative solution coordinated with your family dentist.
