Dr. Spector and the whole team are just phenomenal to work with. I started Invisalign in March 2020 and 15 months later my teeth are perfect! I could not be happier with the end results, but the whole process was honestly enjoyable!! The care, kindness and humor of the whole staff made the regular office visits quick and fun. (Who has FUN at the orthodontist?) Even through the weirdness of the pandemic, they kept my regular appointments and took great care to stay safe. And if you're questioning whether to do Invisalign or one of the cheaper at-home options (as I was)... there is no comparison

Dr. Spector is a terrific orthodontist. Throughout our carefully designed Invisalign treatment plan he has answered my questions and the office has accommodated me. I’ve never had braces or anything done before, so I’m appreciative to have been in good hands during the Invisalign journey. Go to Dr. Spector if you want things done right! :)

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Spector. The thought of having braces forever made me fearful of them, so I tried Smile Direct first. What a waste of time. A friendly and funny person, Dr. Spector was still very stern about scheduling and keeping appointments. He paid attention to detail and made sure my teeth were not only straight but even. I kept all of my appointments, and it is because I showed up and he was so experienced that my teeth turned out so great. I didn't believe it was possible to make my teeth look naturally straight. With that said, having a great orthodontist will not

Dr. Spector helped me out with an orthodontic emergency with my permanent retainer! Highly recommend his services and wish I wasn’t just traveling through Chicago on vacation or else I’d have him as my go-to orthodontist!

I am so happy with the results of my treatment plan with Dr. Spector. Not only am I happy with how my teeth look, I am impressed with the service provided by him and his entire staff. The last year has been difficult with all the challenges that Covid-19 brought, but they navigated all of that with complete professionalism. I would definitely choose Dr. Spector's practice again! If you are looking for the right practice, you should too!

I can't say enough positive things about Dr Spector. Our son has a complicated case that involves braces + surgery. Dr. Spector has been meticulous in planning the right course of action and has communicated every step of the way. He cares about his patients' well-being. We trust him completely. He's the best at what he does. I can highly recommend Dr Spector.

Dr. Spector and his team are fantastic, knowledgeable and kind! I recently completed orthodontic treatment and obtained a permanent retainer. I'm ecstatic with the results and enjoyed the process of getting my new smile. It was a pleasure to visit monthly and get my braces adjusted. They worked with me to determine the best treatment option for my lifestyle to ensure that my goals were met.

Dr. Spector did my braces 20 years ago and I'm STILL thrilled with the results! He's one of those rare practitioners whose first priority really is his patients. Just recently, my permanent retainer needed to be re-glued, after amazingly staying put for 20 years. He was a delight to help me and reminded me of his commitment to his patients, long-term. It was great catching up with him and I couldn't recommend him more highly. One thing he didn't remember about me - I went to see him about 10 years ago, when my dentist asked me to get my retainer adjusted. At that time, I was unemployed and had

As a discerning parent in need of Invisalign for myself and Orthodontics for my daughter, I researched Orthodontists prior to selecting Dr. Howard Spector. Before my initial meeting with Dr. Spector, I had consulted with another DDS, who said I would not be a good candidate for Invisalign. I am grateful I sought a second opinion. That Dr. was obviously not as talented, experienced or knowledgeable as Dr. Spector. If you're considering Orthodontic care, look no further. Dr. Spector is a professional who is thorough and caring. During my daughter's treatment for an over bite and braces, Dr. Spector
