It is virtually impossible to set an appointment over the phone. So just go down there and do it in person otherwise dont bother. Be warned they are always booked. You may can get a walk in appointment you may not. You may get one for 4 months later. The actual service is pretty spot on the prices are fair enough in comparison to other places when you are self paying. Overall i would recommend this place.

They were so careful and informative with my daughter, before giving laughing gas and extracting her tooth. Excellent service and care to the children. They truly are here for children.

I've been in pain for three months, I need sedation for multiple tooth extraction and multiple fillings from childhood neglect since I cannot open my mouth wide since birth. I am so heartbroken that it is this hard to try to find a dentist that take medical card that can do this. I've been calling so many places in circles! 😩

The dentistry is spectacular with their service. The dentists and staff are very sweet and nice as they always place their care towards their patients. I have been attending UIC dental for the past 16 years and I had never had an issue or complaint about this place. I highly recommend this dentistry as my experience has been mellowed with satisfaction and in no doubt will I change my mind about this place.

Went in for a painful abscess. Was expecting the appointment to take forever, but I didn’t have to wait long at all, and I could ask for more professional treatment, and actually affordable for someone with no insurance. A lifesaver.

It has been a long process 2 1/2 year. I have gone through 2 periodontists, 2 prosthodontists, 2 hygenists, and 3 supervisors. It is a long drive from Naperville, but I knew I could not afford the work in the
suberbs. I had an issue with every single tooth except eye teeth. Somed
teeth were pulled. Root canals were done over. I am on my 2nd set of
temporary teeth which I didn't fully understand the need for. When the old temps were taken out and the new temps were put in, I totally understood. These temps were in the perfect and final position and they
are amazing. The 2nd set of temps were in the exact position my final
crowns will be in. The bite is perfect and the look is incredible. I am told the final teeth will be even better. I can finally see why so much had to be done and why it took so long. Why did I have 2 sets of temporary teeth? My original bite included top teeth that protruded and lower teeth that were pushing my top teeth out further. I had what is called in lay term a
collapsed bite. The first set of temporary teeth changed my bite but not
too the final stage, as a severely off bite has to be changed gradually giving time for the facial muscles to accept it. Hats off to Dr. Basaya,
Dr. Kendall and Dr. Moranis for their excellent thinking, planning, and work. It is worth the time and money and so much less than I'd have had to pay in Naperville.

It's hit or miss they in my experience. Like a gamble and the appointments are ridiculous. You'll go in 10 times for something that would be 1-2 visits with your regular dentist. My advice would be that you should only come here as a last result resort OR only option. If you have any other options even paying out of pocket or financing DO THAT.

The students and Faculty at UIC Dental school show a commitment to patient care and to expert dental treatment of the first order. I have been treated by about 4 different students over the past 2 years, all in their final pre-doctoral year. They have all been excellent and I have enjoyed their very friendly approach and caring skills. Presently, I am being treated by Arshad Muhammed who will next be interviewed for the Masters program. Arshad is outstanding technically and spends great time and effort over getting the job to the excellent result he expects of himself. He also takes time to explain the upcoming procedure and why he (with Faculty)has chosen the particular treatment option.
He, and my earlier students have been trained by faculty member, Dr Ashfari, who puts the patient at ease and discusses the next steps with the student and the patient. All the students enjoy working with her and I have felt very comfortable knowing that her expertise and experience are being brought to bear on my dental health. In short ,I rate the clinic very highly and would recommend it without reservation.

I’ve been trying to call this place soooooooo many times and it always goes to the voice mail! No one answer any of the options they give on the phone. Tried everything myself. I’m having toothache for days and can’t even schedule an app on the urgent center because no one ever answer the freaking phone!!

Louise Dixon

Betti Shahin was amazing. She worked diligently to ensure that I received service, after an extensive process and wait. She made sure that I received dental care. She and the supervising Dentist, Dr. Afshari provided great service. Thank you!
