We don't like to leave anyone out in our approach to general dentistry in Oak Lawn! Our family dental office provides services to suit every member of your household-from the youngest to the oldest-through all stages of life. A person's smile grows and develops with them over time, so it's only natural that their dental needs would as well.
Those who are lucky enough to maintain their natural teeth for a lifetime don't get there by chance. Maintaining one's teeth requires a collaborative effort between the patient and dentist-both playing an important role in the patient's dental health. Our family dentist near Burbank provides many preventive dental care treatments, including dental sealants, diet consultation, oral hygiene instruction, and fluoride varnish applications.
For many people, looking our best and feeling our best are somewhat closely aligned. Being able to enter a room and smile, speak, and laugh with confidence can do wonders for a person's self-esteem and overall life outlook. If you find yourself covering your mouth when you smile, it's time to consider your cosmetic solutions.
Dental crowns (also known as dental caps) are a popular solution for teeth that have been weakened or damaged by decay or an accident. Compared to other types of restorations, dental crowns are a relatively non-invasive option for dealing with a problem tooth. Most patients experience a short recovery period and get many years of hassle-free use out of their dental crown.

I cant say enough about the staff here. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. I am afraid of dental procedures, and they were so kind and walked me through everything. Very professional, and willing to go the extra mile

Girls in the office lack the experience in how the paperwork is handled. I was given a quote on my implant and I specifically stressed the question. "Is the amount of my quote the price for the whole procedure?" They all agreed it was. I asked 3 times and also called prior to the procedure. The day before my appt. The dentist let me know that the amount was for the first part of the implant procedure only, NOT THE WHOLE PROCEDURE. I will not be returning to this location. 3 stars only because they are friendly and the wait time is very minimal.

I was given an estimate for a filling. After the work was done, additional charges were added that I was not told about. They had cracked my tooth when conducting another filling but would not take responsibility.

Don't take your kids here. This place is so unprofessional! They wanted to take my 3 year old to the back without me saying due to COVID precautions. Okay whatever I told them I didn't feel comfortable so they let me back. The dentist said my kid had cavities all over and no one could tell me what to do about them. I receive a call hours after leaving saying I need to pay for the assessment that was done. I asked why wasn't I charged while I was there and they said they didn't know. They don't know anything. Super unprofessional. There are many dentists out here so I&apos

Edited after talking to owner (Chris):
We clarified protocol, which I understand and he pointed out the willingness to consider case by case situations. I made the mistake of bringing my youngest, which is why I also understood why I couldn't go back, but we went right after school. This was a mistake I'm willing to fix myself.

My son is older so I was not given follow up advice on whether he should eat, take pain meds, etc... Chris stated he would remind staff to follow up with parent. I also do not know if he saw the same dentist as I met last time who was a little too short with

Out here visiting from out of state and you could imagine my dismay when my crown falls out!! (No more Now and Laters for me!!) I had no idea what to do, but I was referred to Dr. Theresa and she was awesome! I was able to get in quickly and she took care of me. I was in and out of the chair in probably 15 min! The staff were so nice and asked about my stay out this way. The office was clean and welcoming. Thank you Oak Lawn Smiles!!!!!
