13 years ago when I got my braces taken off here, the technician took a good chunk of the enamel on…read moreone of my teeth along with the bracket. There was a loud popping sound. She said, "Oops!" and didn't say anything else, just paused for a long moment and then kept going about taking off the rest of the brackets. When I asked what happened, she said, "It's okay." At the time I was young, 23, and not especially assertive. Dr. Tahir checked me out and approved and I was on my way. I'd had no idea what had happened until I got home. Today, every time I run my tongue along that second-to-front tooth, I am reminded of this mistake that went unaddressed. This was an expensive set of braces. I wish they had been more honest at the time, because young people don't yet have the tools to advocate for themselves. An office with integrity will be sure to address any mistakes on their part.

Not like I care about this 100th review business, but if I casually continued reviewing you might…read moreall assume that Jewel Osco really meant something to me. So uh I'll let Jewel get my 101st review. Let's move on. First, I'm weird. I was excited to get braces, and not for the obvious reasons. I really thought they looked cool. I didn't care that one day they'd be removed and my once crooked teeth would look presentable. Nope, I liked the process of getting to that point. Being able to choose different colors every month made every appointment seem like Christmas. My teen years, well more specifically 14-17, were pretty special. I embraced every aspect of awkward with pride. I'd only be able to live through these colorfully gawky days once and I made the most out of it. The staff at the office were all very friendly. Dr Grud never had to really do much to my teeth after he put the braces on. His assistants were in charge of rubber band replacement. However, the one time he DID work on my teeth, I bit his finger. I felt pretty bad, and he called me a turkey afterward so we're even now. He was wise to leave the rest of the work to his assistants. I saved this for my 100th review because without this orthodontist, my constant smiling and laughing might have scared off some of the people I can now call friends. Thanks.

Braces Boutique was recommended by a friend as a much lower cost family-operated orthodontic…read morealternative to the other locations in Oak Park. We toured several options and found them to be focused on sales and operated more like a machine churning kids in and out of appointments. Braces Boutique is not like that - it is family run and feels personalized. 3 kids later, I feel compelled to write about our wonderful experience. Dr Paul and team are 100% fabulous and I appreciated his honest approach to potential issues, when appropriate he had a "let's wait and see" attitude rather than jumping to a drastic intervention. His patient approach saved us from needing to pull teeth for kid #1 that the competition had recommended. Very satisfied and we wish the family all the best and success as they continue to grow in Oak Park!

Dr. Kornak gave me straight teeth,a beautiful smile, and improved self confidence in myself that has been with me all my life. My teeth stayed straight for 34 years before I needed braces again. I do get new retainers to keep my teeth straight as teeth move and I want straight teeth no matter how old I get. If I still lived in Riverside I would still be his patient. Dr. Kornak is the best! His office staff "Robyn" was the best too.

HEED THIS WARNING: PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO ALL NEGATIVE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS LOCATION!…read more I am appalled, disgusted, and beyond disappointed by my experience at this establishment. From the very first interaction, it became painfully clear that this office operates with an abject disregard for customer service, respect, or basic human decency--especially toward African Americans. Let's start with the financial department, which is nothing short of a disgrace. The individual in charge of this area was shockingly rude, cold, and utterly devoid of the professionalism expected in any service-oriented business. It's one thing to prioritize payment--it's quite another to treat paying customers as though they are nuisances. The blatant lack of courtesy I experienced was not only unacceptable but offensive. The first time I visited, I begrudgingly chalked up the dismissive treatment to the fact that it was an emergency visit. However, the second visit erased any doubts I had about the systemic issues at this office. This time, I came prepared with insurance, yet I was still made to feel as though I was asking for charity. I waited for an unconscionable 90 minutes past my appointment time without a single word of explanation. When I sought clarity, I was met with dismissiveness so cutting that I left the office without even being asked if I wanted to reschedule. There wasn't an apology, a shred of empathy, or even the most basic pleasantry of "Have a nice day." It was clear they didn't want my business--and after this, they certainly won't have it. And let me be frank: this office is NOT welcoming to Black clients. Every non-Black patient who walked in seemed surprised, if not visibly uncomfortable, by my presence. The message was loud and clear: I didn't belong there. Their treatment only confirmed my suspicion. The discomfort I felt was palpable, and no one--not the staff, not the other patrons--made any effort to ease it. This is a disgraceful way to run a business in 2024, and it should be called out for what it is: discrimination. To the receptionist team--if you can even call them that--your behavior was deplorable. One individual attempted to force a façade of politeness, but I've lived long enough to recognize insincerity when I see it. You cannot cover up disdain with half-hearted niceties. The only redeeming factor in my entire experience was the dentist who assisted me on my first visit. She was kind and professional. But let me be clear: no amount of kindness in the back office can compensate for outright hostility and mistreatment at the front. I am an educated, discerning professional, and I demand better. This establishment's behavior is unacceptable on every level, and they should be ashamed to operate with such blatant disregard for Black customers. Losing my business is not just a loss of one client; it is a warning to countless others to stay far away. To the management, you have failed. I would like to hear directly from you as to why this is the standard of service you think is acceptable, especially for Black patrons. To anyone reading this review: spare yourself the anger, disappointment, and indignity I experienced. Take your business elsewhere, where you will be treated with the respect you deserve.
