Dr. Sharkus, a Wisconsin native, has lived in Oregon since 2005. He received his B.S. in Kinesiology/Sports Medicine from the University of Wisconsin and DDS from Creighton University School of Dentistry in Omaha, Nebraska. Dr. Jeffs mission is to provide every patient with a great experience and to treat his patients as family. Dr. Sharkus and his wife Jessica have twin daughters Madelyn and Savannah. It has always been Dr. Jeffs dream to practice close to home in order to be able to spend quality time with his family and enjoy all that Oregon and the surrounding area has to offer. When he is not working, Dr. Sharkus enjoys golfing, travel and cheering on the Badgers and the Packers. In addition, he is also an active member of the American Dental Association (ADA), Wisconsin Dental Association (WDA), Dane County Dental Society, and Oregon Area Chamber of Commerce.
Ahren joined the Sharkus team in 2019. She is originally from Oregon, moved around on a few other adventures, and ultimately returned to her roots. She has worked in the dental field for 10 years and loves learning about everything related to the dental world. She is very excited to be working and assisting others in her hometown.
When not at work or spending time with her family and friends, she devotes her time to traveling and exploring new places, cheering on the Wisconsin Badgers and Green Bay Packers, curling up with a good book, or watching reruns of Friends.
Nicole has been with Sharkus Hometown Dentistry since it opened in 2014. Her favorite part about being a dental hygienist is building relationships with her patients while giving them the best care possible. She considers each patient a friend.
Outside of work, Nicole enjoys spending time with her husband and two daughters. She considers her children her greatest accomplishments. She also stays active in the community with volunteer work and helps with her familys business, Fairway Auto Auction. She absolutely loves animals, and her dream someday is to have a rescue for animals.
Brittany is one of our resident hygienist/assistants on our team at Sharkus Hometown Dentistry. She strives to provide optimal dental hygiene care for her patients in a professional and caring manner. She also enjoys building a relaxed rapport with each patient to better learn about who they are as individuals.
Brittanys spare time consists of crafting, renovation & refurbishing projects, and hanging out with family and friends. She considers herself a down home girl and enjoys such things as truck/tractor pulls and bonfires, but her true passion lies with her horse, PB, both riding and showing, and with her furry best friend, Nitro, a sealed brindle boxer.
One of Brittanys greatest desires is to explore the beauty and wonder of far away places. Her favorite mantra is, Enjoy the little things in life, for one day, youll look back and realize they were the big things.
Having grown up in Oregon, Erica loves seeing familiar faces and giving back to her small town community. She feels lucky to call this her home. She loves getting to know her patients, as well as their families. Her number one focus is to provide high quality care along with a comfortable and positive experience. There are so many people who are terrified of stepping foot inside a dental office and if she can change that for one person, that is her goal!
Erica and her husband have two young daughters and a golden retriever. They love spending time with their amazing family and friends. Their hobbies include camping, boating, and watching Packers football. Some words of wisdom Erica loves to live by are, Be kind, work hard, stay humble, smile often, stay loyal, be honest, travel when possible, never stop learning, and love always!

I never thought I'd bother to write a review for a dentist, but they were exceptional. Everyone was extremely friendly, the place was nice and clean, and they showed me my x-rays and test results while I was in the chair which was cool. Very professional and clearly knew what they were doing. 5 stars!

I'm fairly new to the Village of Oregon moving here from Iowa. When I search for a dentist Sharkus Hometown Dentistry popped up! I was impressed with what I read on their website "treat his patients as family" as I didn't know many people that statement was welcoming! When I walked in for my first appointment instantly I was welcomed! Nicole, RDH took me back for my appointment, she was so very kind and sincerely interested in getting to know me! We had great discussions and excellent dental care along the way! I didn't feel like the new girl in the office but, great friend! Nicole's attention to telling me everything she was doing and explaining every detail! I highly recommend Dr. Sharkus and his amazing staff! Oh, and I can't forget (New Patients)when you check out you receive a loaf of delicious homemade bread from your Hometown Dentist! Love it Thank you for such Awesome Care!!

I have finally found a permanent home for my dental needs. They got me in right away today for a broken tooth. Dr. Jeff saved my tooth last November and it is still 100%. He and his staff are super friendly and very professional. I could not be more pleased. Thank you Team Sharkus!
