Making smiles in River Grove wider and brighter since 1983

Welcome to River Grove Dental Associates, conveniently located near Grand and Thatcher Avenues in River Grove, IL. Here, our professionals know that dental health is not just about bright smiles: it’s about having strong teeth and healthy gums. It’s about enjoying your life free of dental pain and prolonging the simple joy of eating delicious things! Our mission is to help our patients accomplish these goals in a painless, compassionate, and efficient way.

We aim to educate our patients about the importance of their oral health in a relaxing and comfortable environment, including the importance of comprehensive care. We strive to create a proactive mentality towards your general health and well-being. Regular checkups aid in early diagnosis of problems, that, when treated in the early stages of disease reduce painful and often costly treatment. Having a reactive mentality towards one’s health, ie., avoiding the problems until the severity of pain forces the need for treatment, can cause more unneeded pain and suffering.

We understand that many people have anxiety about dental treatment, so we have created a soothing environment and an experience that exceeds your idea of traditional, painful dental care. By combining the latest technology with traditional techniques, we give our patients the opportunity to have optimum dental care. Give us a call today or stop by our office and start your journey toward dental health!
