Everyone from the receptionist to the dental hygienist to the doctor were super friendly and it was painless! No wait time I was very happy with my decision to change dentist!

I'm writing this review for my son who visited Dr. Alkass. I was thrilled with how things went! Dr. Alkass has 3 boys of his own so he was very natural with my son and made my son feel very comfortable even though he came in for a filling. Thank you!

More about Dr. Alin Alkass, DDS
An Illinois native and the second eldest of 3 brothers, Dr. Alin Alkass was raised on the northwest side of Chicago and now lives in the suburb of Morton Grove with his wife Christine and their two children, Thomas and Anthony. Upon graduation from Lane Technical High School in Chicago, Dr. Alkass proceeded on to the University of Illinois at Chicago where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree.
He enrolled at the New York University College of Dentistry in Manhattan, New York and in 2005 he graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. Upon bidding New York City a final farewell, Dr. Alkass returned to the Chicagoland area and began his career as a general dentist, servicing the same region that shaped him. He provided dental care in differing practices that spanned the northwest region, from each absorbing unique perspectives, attitudes and techniques.
Because of his diverse experiences and extensive post-graduate training, he is adept in the following: the advanced use of modern digital technology; periodontal maintenance (continuing care of gums); placement of fillings, crowns, bridges and porcelain veneers; tooth nerve therapy (“root canals”); fabrication of complete and partial dentures; simple and complicated tooth extraction; treatment of children; whitening and more. In the near future he plans to provide services for tooth implants, as well as traditional and metal-free “braces” for Forest Glen, Jefferson Park and communities beyond.
Dr. Alin Alkass is a different kind of dentist. Warm, patient and caring, he takes the time to listen and then provide you with the best care possible. He is also well-regarded by his patients for his thoroughness.
