As a Member in Good Standing of the Congress of Minimally Invasive Dentistry, I practice what I believe, which is to preform the LEAST invasive dental procedure for the problem as it presents itself.  We do not routinely trim teeth down for crowns or laminates, therefore we place conservative, tooth-saving restorations wherever and whenever possible.  For Esthetic Cosmetic changes, we are a Lumineers Certified Dental Office, which allows us to place Lumineers, specifically -- it is not necessary to remove significant tooth structure to place esthetic porcelain laminate veneers.

We are a PerioProtect Method Certified Dental Office.  This is the latest way to conservatively treat Periodontal Gum Disease WITHOUT Surgery!  Basically, we construct a very well fitting rubberized set of comfortable upper and lower mouth guards that the patient will wear with a Antibacterial solution for 15 minute intervals (several times per day).  Many of our patients have reported significant reduction or elimination of gumline bleeding, firming up of loose teeth, tightening of the gums around the teeth and moderate to significant reduction of gumline pocket depths (the major problems of gum disease).  We have found that patient gumline pocket depth measurements have greatly decreased, many down to less than 1 millimeter in depth!  These are equal to or better than results which may be obtained from surgery.

We are the FIRST Dental Office in Chicago and one of less than 30 Dental Offices in the United States that Utilizes Safe, Dental Ozone for treatment of initial areas of decay to allow them to "heal" without drilling, without "novocaine" anesthetic and without the use of any filling material.  After a simple, easy, painless and low cost Dental Ozone treatment, the tooth is allowed to remineralize.  This treatment has proven research with positive results and has been in use in Europe and Canada for many years.  Dental Ozone has many additional uses, and has been shown to be effective in tooth sensitivity reduction and in areas of deep decay, it has been used to reduce the need for root canal treatment.

We are located across the street (Michigan Avenue) from the famous Millennium Park in downtown Chicago.  The picture below is the view we overlook.
