The short version
A custom appliance holds your airway open through the night. It is quiet, portable, and for many patients the difference is immediate.

Questions
What patients ask us most.
Do you see emergencies the same day?
We hold time every morning for urgent care. Call 847.566.2811 and we will do everything we can to see you today.
What counts as a dental emergency?
Swelling, a knocked-out or loosened tooth, a broken front tooth, a lost crown, or pain that keeps you awake. When in doubt, call.
I am genuinely afraid of the dentist. What are my options?
Options range from numbing that actually works and generous breaks, to nitrous oxide, to oral sedation for longer appointments. Nothing happens without your say-so.
Will you make me feel bad about my teeth?
No. Our job is to fix problems, not assign blame. Patients regularly tell us this was the part they worried about most and it never came up.
Patient reviews
From people who had this done here.
I have been a patient here for over twenty years and I would not go anywhere else. Everyone knows my name the moment I walk in, and the care has always been thorough and completely honest.
Dr. Markiewicz walked me through my implant plan on a 3D scan so I understood exactly what would happen. The surgery was far easier than I expected and the tooth looks completely natural.
I used to dread the dentist. This office changed that. They explained every step, checked in constantly, and never once made me feel rushed or judged about the work I had put off.
