    The Dental Salon has completely changed my outlook on going to the dentist. Every since I was a child my worst nightmare each year was having to go to the dentist. After moving to Chicago last year I was fortunate enought to find The Dental Salon and give it a try. From the moment I walked into this place I was at ease and not scared at all. The staff was very warm and welcoming, the office is beautiful, and I felt more like I was in a spa then I did a dentist. Dr. Sheffield was the dentist that saw me and she was AWESOME!!! Very kind and gentle with everything and explained each procedure in depth before performing them. I can truly say "I LOVE THE DENTAL SALON" and have reccomended them to all of my friends. Thank you Dental Salon.

    Don't let the pictures and decor of this place fool you! Their dentistry skill is questionable, and they are dishonest with their pricing to try to get you in for more appointments. They said I needed 7 fillings, but to be cautious, I divided it into 2 appointments, since I didn't feel any discomfort from my teeth. I went in for 3 fillings on one side of my mouth, and the dentist drilled too deeply, exposing the nerve endings too close to the surface, and now I can't chew most foods on that side of my mouth anymore, so I have to use the other side of my mouth. And the teeth they said needed filling are still fine. Makes me question how serious my condition was. I've now hired a lawyer. In addition, they gave me the wrong price for the procedure. They said my insurance company would not cover this procedure, which I knew anyway so I paid it with my credit card. Only to have them send me another bill 3 months later that is 3 times the amount I've already paid saying they sent ... Read more

    There is nothing but wonderful things that I have to say about Dental Salon. I haven't been to a dentist in 6 years. Dr Derakhshan and her team made me feel compfortable and at ease. The systems that Dental Salon has are UNBELIEVEABLE! I was able to SEE everything that was wrong with my teetha nd all the options and pricing right at my finger tips! After I was shown what needed to be done. They asked if I wanted to get started! REALLY?! How great to just jump right in like that!!! Not only the awesome service, but the beautiful building itself! I love the clean modern look. Have you ever been to a dentist that is locaed in their home.... I mean EWW! That's just not the case at Dental Salon. And the view! Forget about it! Dental salon has a lifetime patient in me. And i have already reccommended it to all my friends! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

    I had had trouble finding a dentist that was both recommended by someone I knew and that took my company's insurance. I had a good experience with this place. I was very easily able to work in an appointment around work too!

    I have been avoiding the dentist because of a bad experience and could not find one that I liked. A co-worker told me about Dental Salon. I booked an appointment and I absolutely LOVED my experience. Dr. Trupti Desai is fantastic. She walked me through the whole process. Favi, the hygienist, was gentle with the cleaning. When I came home, I could not stop raving how wonderful this experience was. I can't believe that I saying this about a dentist but I can't wait to go back.

    Dental Salon exceeded all expectations of what dental care could be. From the friendly professional staff to the quality of care provided, I have never found a better dental experience. The minute you walk in the door you feel confident in your desicion to visit and are welcomed as one of the family. Dental Salon is hands down the place for all your dental needs!

    I have nothing but great things to say about Dental Salon! I made the switch to the Dental Salon office in October of '09 through a co-workers recommendation and I am so thankful that I did. Thier modern, friendly office is on the cutting edge of technology and is in a great location for me as a Lakeview resident. As someone who has experienced some dental issues in the past, it is always important to me that I find a dentist that I am comfortable with, and who I know I can trust to be honest and professional. I definitely have found that with Dr. Scott Overhouser. Dr. Scott has an excellent bed-side manner and has consistently talked me through the dental work that I have needed, making sure that I understand what needs to be done. Having now completed 2 crowns with Dr. Scott, his excellent care and communication throughout have made the procedures as painless as possible, and given me the peace of mind that is hard to find when it comes to dental issues. Historically, I've always b... Read more

    I am not a fan of dentists, so every few years after not seeing a dentist I feel guilty and try and find one that is sensitive to my less-than-enthuastic feeling but still does a good job. In the past, I avoided dentists simply because I found the experience to be acutely uncomfortable. Not having any background in dentistry, it seemed that no previous dentist was ever willing to spend the time to answer my questions or explain procedures properly. A friend recommended Dental Salon. My appointment was with Dr. Sheffield and went really well, despite learning of some cavities that needed attention. I find Dr. Sheffield to be such a superb dentist simply because of her willingness to go over all of my questions (including laying out ALL the costs of procedures BEFORE doing any work) and concerns, explaining the pros and cons of treatment options, and providing information in very clear and concise language. She even took time to review a treatment option (for a mouth guard) with me a ... Read more

    Theresa, the dentist's assistant, was awesome! She had such a pleasant personality, and really made me comfortable. She was extremely informative about my condition and the course of treatment. Who wouldn't want to be around her with that beautiful Hollywood smile! Theresa is like a diamond in the rough- a true gem to be treasured!!!!

    I had a dental emergency and they got me in right away. Walking into the Dental Salon is like walking into any other salon-- it's beautiful! Dr. Kathy Valcarenghi made me feel special, cared for and totally confident in her expertise. I have already told friends about the Dental Salon and look forward to going back.

I have had interactions with several doctors and hygienists and they have all been fantastic- efficient, professional and friendly. They explain everything so that you actually understand what is happening in your mouth!

    You've found your dentist for the rest of the time in the city. I've had some bad experiences at the dentist and was nervous about trying a new dentist, but the Dental Salon helped ease my fear and made my experience delightful. Dr. Sheffield was my dentist, she was great! She was not only extremely nice but took the time to explain the procedures to me and was kind when answering any questions I had. The price is resonable. They give you an estimate of cost and the front desk double checked my insurance to make sure I was covered. If you are looking for a dentist, look no further, the dental salon is the place to go.

    My sons and I had our 1st dental visit at the Dental Salon on Sunday. The office is in a nice upscale, CLEAN, BRIGHT, AIRY space. Excellent hours. I was so happy to find there is parking available in the building. The staff members were really nice and friendly. Dr. Scott Overholser and his assistant made me feel really at ease. They answered all my dental questions. My boys really liked Dr. Sara Sheffield. Dr. Sheffield sat with us and discussed the boy’s dental care. I’m looking forward to returning for my follow-up treatments. It took me 18 months to find a dental provider who accepts my insurance plan, yet meets my high standards. I plan to refer all my friends to the Dental Salon. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

    This is by far, one of the best dentist offices I have ever been to. The staff is very friendly and appointment making has never been easier. Have a question about insurance coverage? They are one top of it!! They bring everything to the next level. I would recommend DS to anyone in search of a great new place to get your dental work done!

    Had two terrific experiences, first for my cleaning, second for a cavity filling. Both times, I enjoyed prompt service (minimal waiting time) and excellent communication on the part of the receptionist, dental hygienist and dentist. It's clear they have a great culture there and train everyone thoroughly. I even knew how much my fillings were going to cost ahead of time, so that I could anticipate my payment accordingly! I would highly recommend the Dental Salon to anyone looking for a positive experience at the dentist (and who isn't?)

    Apparently most people don't like going to the dentist or getting their teeth cleaned etc. I happen to like it! I feel so much better afterward. The staff at Dental Salon help make your whole dental experience a great one. As soon as you walk in the door. Favi is the greatest!!! I do not want to go to anyone else! And Dr. Desai was wonderful and helpful! I look forward to my next visit!

    I have been going to the Dental Salon for over 1 year. I have had a range of services from a crown procedure to fillings. I will say that both of the dentist I have seen, Dr. Gloud and Dr. Platson, were both phenomenal. We all hear horror stories about the dentist. The most painful portion of the procedures were the tiny pinches I felt from the needle filled with anesthesia, and trust me I have a low tolerance for pain. The ladies made the time fly by and always make sure that I was comfortable. I do not feel that any of the prices that I have been charged are to expensive. I do feel that I have always received quality service and I never have to worry if the person who is servicing me is competent. Not only do you receive great service, but the atmosphere makes the experice complete.

    I chose Dental Salon because it is easily accessible to public transportation and has late hours. When I went for the first time, I was surprised at how friendly and knowledgeable all the staff were. The place is clean, the equipment is high-tech, and they make sure you are comfortable 100% of the time you are there. I've never been to a dentist that has taken the time to explain in detail (including showing me videos) what is happening in my mouth. I'm definitely very happy with the choice I made.

    I've been going to the Dental Salon for 3+ years now. The staff is friendly and the place is very clean. It is very conveniently located as well. I also love that they have weekend hours since I travel a lot for work. I go to the Dental Salon at least twice a year for cleanings and they have always done a good job. I have recommended this place to a few friends and they have all seemed to like it as well. My only glitch with the place is that I've seen a few dentists over the three years instead of just having one dentist. While this has not affected the quality of work done, it would be nice to have continuity with one dentist.

    My daughter's wedding was coming up and I wanted to be able to smile for the pictures on this special day as I had promised her. My teeth were in bad shape because bad previous experiences had caused me to neglect caring for them. My daugthers recommended Dental Salon & from the moment I first walked in I felt comfortable. I felt that the entire staff had my welfare at heart. In a month's time I had major work completed and on the day of my daughter's wedding, there was her dad with the biggest smile - one I had not shown in years. I am continuing with my dental plan and care and I could not be happier. If you have ever had a bad experience or if you just neglected your dental care take my advice and make an appointment today at Dental Salon. You will be very glad you did - and you will smile!

    I have the worst dental insurance on the planet. My "plan" dentists include an elderly man who yelled at me in Bulgarian until finally the janitor stepped in and convinced him I only spoke English (then he yelled at me for that), and a basement office with visible dirt on the floor and equipment, including flecks of blood and spit from the previous patient in the sink ... or maybe the previous year's worth of patients...I was so traumatized, I paid over $4,000 in cash for dental work this summer, because I figured no decent dentists would join my dental HMO. Then, out of money and having cancelled the family vacation to fund a root canal, I searched again, widening the zip code range. IMAGINE MY JOY when I entered the sleek, professional, up to date, modern, exceptionally clean, friendly, compassionate, affordable confines of the Dental Salon. I am still reeling from the shock that they actually honor my plan, and I have already had the pleasure of some excellent, painless new dent... Read more

    I have been a client from almost the time the Dental Salon started. Dr. Mark Morris, Dr. Scott, and the entire office was extremely friendly and accommodating. They listen to their clients and I feel their prices are affordable. They carry all types of insurance and make that part of the process seamless. Scheduling an appointment was never a problem and they call or email you to remind of your upcoming appointment.. They are very caring when working on your teeth. I feel that it is the best dentist I have ever been to. Their office is has the latest technology and is very attractive. The overall feeling is one calm and comfort. I am not fearful of going to the dentist, but if anyone has any fears or worries about going to the dentist, I would strongly reccommend going to the Dental Salon--you will find that you are in the best hands.

    I've always disliked going to the dentist because even cleanings were painful for me, but Dental Salon has given me a new perspective. Dr. Wong and his staff made me feel very comfortable and at ease with everything. I went in for a root canal and wisdom teeth extraction few months back. The whole procedure was pain-free!!! The dentist gave me nitrous oxide and I don't remember the rest!!!

    I first tried out the Dental Salon based on my girlfriend's high recommendation. I have been another time since. The first appointment was for a routine cleaning- I was impressed that everything was running on-time, even with the dentists performing the cleaning procedure, as opposed to the hygienist. I love that they frequently have appointments available before work as well. The second visit I was equally happy with. This was a free consultation on veneers/crowns. Again, the appointment was on time and I was given good information to help me make my decision. WIth free validated parking too and good appointment times, I don't see any reason to search further for a dentist.

    I just returned from my third visit to the Dental Salon for the amazing $99 teeth whitening deal! I was in and out for the molds and received the trays later that same afternoon! I got plenty of whitening paste and am seeing amazing results already. I continue to be impressed by the professionalism, availability, and efficiency of this place. This is my second visit to the Dental Salon for a routine cleaning, and again I am thoroughly pleased. I have since moved out of the city, but will still return every 6 months. Once you find a dentist/doctor that is as good as this, there is no need to look further. The Dental Salon is committed to excellent customer service- I even was emailed after my visit to see how things went! I was impressed that the dentist cleaned my teeth herself - I'm used to the hygienist doing the whole thing and the dentist just checking the job afterwards. The hygienist was great too- she gave me a demo at the end of how to floss properly. I just can't say enough... Read more

    I had problems with a few dentists in Chicago either selling me on things I didn't need, wasting my time by cancelling appointments, causing me to wait in the waiting room for up to an hour, or that looked dirty and unsanitary. I've been going here for 18 months now and will never go anywhere else. They always get me in on time, The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, and they never try to up sell me on something I don't need. And since losing my dental insurance that I had with my previous company, I look more closely at the cost of procedures and they are very affordable.

    Having just moved from NYC where i've had way too much dental work in my life, i was thrilled to find dental salon. the offices are beautiful, the staff is lovely, informed, and kind, and my dentist was terrific - dr. weisz. He explained my treatment plan thoroughly and gave me several options. He understood that i have had dreadful experiences at the dentist before and took that into account. While i hate that i need a new crown, i am at least happy to have found dental salon to do the work going forward. I can't speak to all of the dentists there, but he was terrific. And i loved the folder with the pictures of my teeth to take home : )

    When I came to Chicago a little over a year ago I was in need of a new dentist. I have had many dentists and I have seen good ones and bad ones. I found this dentist through the Internet and decided to try it given the great reviews. The location of a good dentist was less important to me. I would drive rom one part of town to another to ensure I have a good dentist, rather than a poor dentist that is easily located around the corner of where I live/work. And so, this dentist is a bit further for me, but it is worth it for me. To date I feel that my first pick was the right choice. So far I am very happy with this dentist and have absolutely no ideas about changing. I think one important aspect in my consideration is that at one point I needed two crowns. And my dentist, Dr. Scott, indicated that if was early enough I would not need a root canal procedure. I would do anything to prevent that, and it was obvious to me I had to have a crown. An old filling cracked a big molar. It was soo... Read more

    The Dental Salon met all of my needs on the first visit. On the first initial consultation I had my teeth cleaned and inspected. Dr. Platson and her dental assistant are very knowledgeable and the service is top notch. After Dr. Platson’s dental assistant finished cleaning my teeth, I thought I had brand new teeth. Wow, the dental salon is the best dental office in the Chicago land area. I can’t wait to return to complete my follow-up visits. Don't wait any longer, this is the place to go for your dental needs.

    Dr. Desai performed a minor miracle in my mouth, a root canal and filling a cavity all in the same sitting. It was done with minimal pain thanks to a nice dose of anesthesia. The shot didn't hurt. Afterwords the meds wore off, I could certainly tell I'd had a root canal, but the jaw pain is gone and looking forword to getting the crown in place. I've just found my dentist for life.

    Dr. Harrington was easy to communicate with and was proficient in her job. She identified a problem with my filling that was causing pain without any knowledge beforehand. She did not pressure any services but was able to replace the filling on the same visit. The teeth cleaning was of standard quality. The patient care coordinator followed-up post treatment to make sure everything was okay with my visit.

    I have been going to Dental Salon for several years. The friendly staff and beautiful office make each visit a wonderful experience. I am always pleased with the professional service I receive --- from not having to wait forever in the waiting room, to my cleaning by the dental hygienist to the dental exam. As far as the office, the atmosphere is always quite and relaxing. The decor is cool, modern, and very clean, which is important to me. These are the same qualities that attract me to other services --- like spas, restaurants, nail salons, stores, etc. I just had my last check-up this past week and must give a big SHOUT OUT to the hygienist, Favia, who did my cleaning. It was the best cleaning I've ever had!!! You know that feeling you get after getting a great hair color and cut or a great day at the spa --- That's how I felt after my cleaning. My teeth were cleaner and whiter than they've been in a long time without that stripped or chalky feeling. Favia was very thorough... Read more

    Having never been a fan of the dentist after bad childhood experiences, I put off a visit for 3 years. However, I needed to find one when I was in alot of pain and looked on yelp to guide me. I found Dental Salan on Yelp and chose it purely due to the great ratings and recommendations it received, as well as the convienience of location and hours. Dr. Sheffield met with me and examined my teeth, she didnt make me feel bad even though she diagnosed a number of problems. They also took xrays and photographs of my teeth, so I could see the problems - there was no getting away from them!! They then discussed the treatment plan and showed me videos so I would understand what needed to be done. There was never any pressure to do the treatment. So far I have had a root canal, filling and crown and still have more work to be done. They are great at fitting you in at short notice, provide you with the costs upfront - there are payment plans if you want to space out the cost, are lovely to ch... Read more

    My experience at Dental Salon has always been pleasant. Dr. Palella is knowledgeable about every aspect of dental hygiene, and he is always a pleasure to see. I was still seeing my dentist back in Indiana, a private dentist office, when I decided that making a trip back every (6) months was not going to be beneficial to me. I made my appointment with Dental Salon after being referred by my best friend. I was cautious because I have never known a dental office to advertise on T.V. before, and I thought it was a little odd. My experiences at the Dental Salon have always been positive and I have never had a complaint about any of my visits. I met with Dr. Palella for my first appointment, and after my first visit I knew that I had found a dentist that I could trust. Dr. Palella takes the time to answer any questions that I have thoroughly. If you are looking for a dentist in Chicago I strongly recommend making an appointment with Dr. Palella or any other dentist at Dentist Salon. ... Read more

    This was my first dental experience in the city of chicago, and I must say I was quite impressed. I had a 4pm appointment and I was seen right away by the dentist. All the staff were very kind, especially since I can have toruble with taking e-rays! Not only that, but they explained every procedure up front and during the process. Then if they recommended an additional procedure they explained that and worked hard to help keep the cost as low as possible.
