    I just had my braces removed about 8 months ago and I am beyond happy with my results. I did a lot…read moreof research before I got my braces put on and shopped around for the best prices and the best service. I did consultations at various places and I could tell that some of the places just wanted me to get in-and-out and could care less if I signed up or not. I was referred to Dr. Tahir by a friend. My consultation at Dr. Tahir's was not rushed, they explained my various options and I was told the truth. All other places had suggested invisalign [since being an adult with braces is not the most fun] but Dr. Tahir advised me that it was not the best option for me [my teeth were REALLY bad]. I ended up getting clear braces and I loved them! They did not yellow and Dr. Tahir was very flexible with my appointments since at the time I was still in college and out of state. His staff is great and I love going in and getting a chance to watch the movies they screen throughout the office. They have 2 offices, Oak Lawn & Berwyn, I have been to both and have found the same high-quality service in both [although aesthetically I prefer the Berwyn office]. They have a lot of clients but the service is fast and I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes to be seen by someone. Dr. Tahir is a perfectionist and trust me when I say that you want this in an ortho! [you are paying quite a bit of money after all!!] My teeth are perfect and he really took his time to make sure I was happy with my smile. Bonus: I got a free ipod for signing up and when my braces were removed I got a nice bottle of wine to celebrate!!

    I had such a great experience at this dental office! The space is super clean and everything feels…read morevery professional, but still warm and welcoming. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful, which makes a big difference. I really liked the woman who cleaned my teeth--she was gentle, thorough, and made me feel completely comfortable. Dr. Brucci does beautiful work, and I couldn't be happier with my results. I'm so glad I found this dentist and would absolutely recommend them.

    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.
