Shaina Zhao, DDS, Baraboo Dentist

Meet Dr. Zhao

Dr. Shaina Zhao is honored to continue the tradition of care at Baxter Dental Center and is excited to become part of the Baraboo community. She grew up in Minocqua, Wisconsin, where she learned the value of hard work, kindness, and treating neighbors like family. Those small-town values continue to guide how she practices dentistry every day.

Dr. Zhao truly believes that every patient deserves more than just a happy, healthy smile — you deserve a treatment plan that’s personalized just for you. It’s your body, your time, and your investment in your health, and she works together with each patient to reach the best possible outcome. She values open and honest communication and is committed to making sure patients feel informed, comfortable, and confident every step of the way.

Before joining Baxter Dental Center, Dr. Zhao practiced in Prairie du Sac, where she enjoyed caring for families and building long-term relationships with patients of all ages. She has long appreciated the beautiful scenery and welcoming spirit of the Baraboo area and is excited to serve this wonderful community.

She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Marquette University School of Dentistry in 2020. Dr. Zhao is a member of the Wisconsin Dental Association (WDA), American Dental Association (ADA), and Greater Dane Dental Society (GDDS).

Outside the office, Dr. Zhao enjoys traveling and exploring new experiences, and she looks forward to serving this community for many years to come.
