Covid Update

Starting May 11, 2020, Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) recommended dentists resume routine dental care. Covid19 guidance was given to minimize risk. Additionally, we are following the guideline established by the CDC & American Dental Association. At this time we are prepared and ready to help you with your dentistry needs. 

We ask for your patience as we implement extra safety procedures, such as pre-appointment screening for Covid-19 risks, adjusted appointment times to allow distancing, and increased infection control. You may notice a new look for our staff with increased PPE usage or hear the newly installed air purification units. 

Know that we now have increased availability to help you with your dental needs. We appreciate you for being a patient at The Radiant Smile. Be well and stay safe everyone!

WHY CHOOSE US

We are a general dentistry office serving the diverse population of Evanston and beyond. We see the whole family from children to grandparents. We are a private practice with a single location. This means we are not subject to the business management of a large corporation with competing interests. The only people we have to please is you, our patients. 

We are experienced and dependable. We’ve been at the same location with the same doctor since 2003. And we're going to be here for the long term. Our staff is loyal. (And our patients are too!) You won’t see new faces every time. You’ll have a reliable doctor-patient relationship. We are open 6 days a weeks to help you. We are available after-hours via text and email to help you in time of emergency. 

Dentistry is our vocation; it is the art we practice. We pursue the ideal, striving always to be our best. We utilize the latest technology from digital x-rays to CAD-CAM milling of dental crowns, from computerized spectrometry to match tooth color to the utilization of high-tech zirconia-based dental materials. We use local, family-owned laboratory based in Chicago and have regular in-person meeting for quality assurance. Many of our competitors use large out-of-state laboratories, who routinely subcontract work to China, in order to save money. Do not compromise on quality.

INSURANCE

Our goal is to provide excellent dental work at a reasonable cost. That’s why we are successful. If you have dental insurance, using it at our office will ensure that your out-of-pocket expense is kept as low as possible. This is because we are in-network with most PPO plans. Just provide us with your dental insurance information, and we’ll double check that for you.

PPO dental plans we currently accept include: Aetna, Allied Benefit Systems, Anthem Blue Cross, Assurant, Dearborn National, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ameritas, Lincoln Financial Group, Cigna, Delta Dental, Guardian, Humana, Metlife, Principal, Trustmark, UMR, United Healthcare, Aflac, Coresource, Physician Benefits Trust, Health Partners Administrators, Reliance Standard Insurance, Premera, Unicare.

If you don’t have dental insurance, know that our regular fees are very reasonable. We don't like marketing gimmicks such as cheap 1st visits only to make up for the loss later with higher fees. You won't get a slick sales pitch from us -- we hate giving it and we hate getting it. If you need significant treatment, ask about discounts for self-pay patients. We also offer extended payment plans through Care Credit.
