Dr. Michiels is our family dentist and he's been great with all of us. We've been going there…read moresince my littles ones were old enough for their first dentist appointment (8 years). Great with kids and spazzing adults who don't do well with dental work (me!) Not only is he a great dentist he gives back to his community! He just donated to my non profit Fight2Feed.org 37 pies and 8 turkeys to support us serve 1500 meals this Thanksgiving! Highly recommend Dr Michiels and North Shore Dental. Wish he did our furry family members too!

Dr. Michiels and his staff are great (I've compared many having moved around much until recently)…read more I switched dentists based on reputation for professionalism/skill asking around, and he got me in very quickly on a bone spicule (for a small sliver of bone from extraction years ago protruding from gum) at first appointment during a busy time, and didn't charge for things he could have, very reasonable in explaining candidly and honestly and practically what ought be done relative to cost for many other issues I spoke with him about.

I had a gut feeling something was off, so I decided to trust it--and that decision led me straight to Dr. Showers . The moment I walked in, I felt calm. The staff was so kind and welcoming and the energy in the office just felt different... peaceful, honest, safe. Dr. Showers was everything I didn't know I needed--wise, clear, and genuinely caring. His presence alone felt like a blessing . Instead of jumping into treatment, he walked me through all my options with compassion and knowledge. He even explained the possibility of going the natural route. That moment of honesty gave me clarity and peace of mind ‍. I didn't need the root canal. I saved so much money but more importantly, I felt seen and respected as a patient and a person. That's rare. That's priceless . I've already recommended this place to friends because when something feels this right, you want to share it with the people you care about . Thank you, Dr. Showers, for living up to your name and showering me in blessings And thank you to the entire staff for making me feel at home

MY HEROS! I've lived in Los Angeles for nearly 20 years and have always had bad luck with dentist…read more Every new dentist visit was met with laughter, finger pointing, and bringing colleagues in to show them what they're seeing in my mouth . They would tell me that the Maryland Bridge is outdated. Nobody uses that technology anymore, everybody uses implants now . The west coast is ALL about implants. They'll try to tap into your insecurities to persuade you into changing your mind. It's truly surprising how relentless they are. My bridge came out and no one would offer a solution to what I wanted. It was ALL about what they wanted and how they felt about it. It doesn't matter if I go to Beverly Hills, Encino, Venice, the valley, 5 star ratings and reviews, THEY ALL SUCK! Almost $1000 later, a tore up mouth from the new "stay plate" (that didn't stay in my mouth) made by another new dentist, feeling discourage, upset, and mad over every LA dentists pushing implants that would cost me 10k. I got on a plane from LAX and came here to finally get my teeth fixed by professionals!! I can't thank Dr. Michelle Singapori enough for fixing my HUGE problem! I was out of my network for health insurance but they made it really affordable for me. I paid less out of pocket at Dr Singapori office to fix me, then being in network in LA and paying to see new dentists to help me fix my problem. If I was my insurance I would pay them. Cheaper than seeing every single shady dentist in LA. Thank you Dr Singapori!

Love Love Love the work they put into making it overall a great experience. Dental work is never fun but the game has been changed.

Who likes going to the dentist? Me!…read more I actually know multiple people from Lake Forest and Lake Bluff that go to Dr. Durrett. He was actually referred to me by my dentist in downtown Chicago because I had no idea where to start when I moved up here. The office is small and compact but that doesn't mean you feel like you're in some old practice. The group has the latest technology -- from digital "x-rays" that instantly pull up to Zoom, the blue-lighting teeth whitening process. His technicians are down to earth, chatty (in a good way) and work quickly. I have had the teeth whitening process and was pleased with the outcome. I've never had a cavity (it's true) so I can't speak to his oral surgeon skills. The office managers will work with your insurance company rather than making you submit the paperwork, which saves me from the hassle! He's an easy recommendation if you're looking for a dentist.

First I want to state that I rarely get sick. I cannot remember the last time I caught a…read morecold/virus. However, 24 hours after having my teeth cleaned/check-up I came down with a cold/virus. Headache/sore throat/congestion etc. I have now had the cold for five days and not happy about it. This is not the first time this has happened, my husband had caught a cold after a visit to Dr. Durrett a while ago. Now he is very careful to only schedule appointments the first hour of the day to minimize contamination. The problem must be that they are not cleaning their instruments enough or the ventilation isn't good. Not happy to have to go through this cold.

Upon moving to Lake Forest I had an acute issue which Dr Fondreist repaired expertly, pointing out some deficiencies in my cleaning regimen and care.

It's unfortunate that I have to leave a disappointing review for this practice. I had a good…read moreinitial experience with Dr Ballis. He is generally very careful and gentle during any procedure. My reason for the one star is for their deceptive and apparent unnecessary add ons to procedures. I was told repeatedly that I had two crowns that needed to be changed. When I called to confirm my appointment, I was told that I was having an additional crown done at an additional $590 out of pocket cost to me. When I confronted Dr Ballis, I was told that maybe because of COVID masking, that I misunderstood. This is deceptive and a grab at additional costs at the expense of the insurance company and patients. Make sure you get everything in writing when you go to this practice. If you don't, you will find additional procedures and costs added to your file.

When we moved to the NorthShore, we were shocked to discover no one takes dental insurance. Say…read morewhat? So we were paying out of pocket for everything. It was getting ridiculous. Then I find Dr. Ballis and decide to use myself as the test subject for my family. I called to make an appointment. I got voice mail but they called me back. Tina, the receptionist, is a no nonsense person, which works great for me. I don't need someone taking up my time smiling sunshine up my butt. She laid out exactly what I needed to do to get my files transferred electronically. It was so easy it was surprising. Dr. Ballis was friendly, easy to talk to and talked to me about my gums, which were inflamed. I had no cavities (I'm a girl who flosses, thank you!) and he said stress can sometimes make your gums inflamed. Huh. Who knew! I decided to transfer the entire family over to his practice, including my then 5yo and 3yo. I was so worried about going from a kid-based dentist to a grown up dentist. I shouldn't have even wasted a minute worrying. Tina scheduled them both at the same time. We arrived and off they went without even a thought. They did wonderfully (a completely surprise to me) and haven't had a problem going back. Yeah Laurie, the technician, and Dr. Ballis! The office looks unassuming from outside. But when you enter there is a grand staircase and lovely decor that greets you. This building hosts other offices as well. Dr. Ballis' office is soothing, with calming classical music playing in the background. (Admit it. Your dentist plays old 60s or 70s stuff. Right?) My husband has made the switch and we all have been very happy with the services Dr. Ballis does. I don't have any complaints and now I just need to get my husband to make his appointment for the Zoom teeth whitening. Can't wait to see that glistening smile.
