Specialty dentistry encompasses the art of orthodontics which improve many types of dental problems with the most common being overcrowding, crossbites, overbite and underbite. Oral surgery focuses on wisdom tooth removal, a suspicious lesion that needs a biopsy, or any other oral health condition requiring surgical diagnosis. Grove also offers under one roof, endodontics and periodontics which are dentists who specialize in root canal therapy and diagnosing and treating gum disease.

With a wide range of services to offer for each and every patient, the following dental professionals at Grove Dental shared their personal testimonies and words of dental advise to best care for your smile.

Pediatric dentist, Dr. Mark Cabana, was once a pediatric patient at Grove. A Downers Grove native, he is proud to work at the practice that gave him a confident smile. Grove offers a kid-friendly environment with décor, movies, and fun prizes. Grove prides itself on being gentle and patient with younger children. Grove’s pediatric dentists and specialists have advanced training beyond dental school in working with all children, including those with special health care needs, making the experience as comfortable and worry-free as possible.

General dentist, Dr. Kevin Moss, loves how patient-centric Grove is. With flexible office hours six days a week and a team full of specialists, great things happen for patients when they put their trust in the doctors at Grove. Dr. Moss believes the patient’s personality makes their smile unique and beautiful, and their smile can make the patient more confident. Dr. Moss adds,“If you take care of your smile, your smile will take care of you.”

Oral surgeon, David H. Smith, DMD., advises patients to treat surgical issues sooner rather than later. Time is key because waiting too long can cause pain and/or infections to occur that can be avoided by seeking proper oral treatment right at the start of a problem.

Orthodontist, Dr. Sam Allen, says the best “feel good” part of his job is seeing the happiness and contentment on his patients’ faces when they are done with their treatment, especially after seeing their beautiful smiles after their braces are removed. Dr. Allen cherishes the relationships he gets to form with his patients over the course of treatment, as both orthodontist and patient have the same end goal: to achieve the optimal result of straight teeth and giving the patient the ideal smile.

Grove Dental is also heavily involved in the community, making it a long-time local favorite.This includes free dental exams for veterans and their immediate family members, a coat drive for military families, candy for the troops, and a community food drive. Every February, Grove Dental specialists go to nearby elementary schools and give oral health talks and toothbrushes to young students.

Grove Dental in Downers Grove proudly sponsors local causes, such as the BBQ Bolt Run at McCollum Park, as well as various local youth sports programs.

Because of its excellent and professional dental care in a state-of-the-art environment and its caring approach and community involvement, Grove Dental is the superb choice for multigenerational smiles all across Chicagoland. Now that is something to smile about!
