Just hoping someone loves their dentist since I'm not crazy about my current dentist.

What can I do next?

B., you have probably gotten a response by now, but if you are still looking for a dentist, I would recommend mine, F. Robert Wilkin, at 2335 W. Foster, ###-###-####. I've been going there for probably 20 years, and he treated my sons when they were growing up; they are now almost 26 and almost 23. Good luck. I keep telling this doctor he should give me a finder's fee! <smile>

I'm not sure where you are located, but we see Denise Fisher and Melissa Vargas at Kids Plus Pediatric Dentistry. They have offices in Hoffman Estates and Chicago. I've never been to the Chicago location, but the Hoffman Estates office is absolutely amazing. Check out their webiste at http://www.kidspluspediatricdentistry.com/

I agree that Dr. McAllister in Park Ridge is the best! My 6 year old daughter LOVES going to the dentist, largely due to having nothing but great experiences with Dr McAllister and her staff. My cousin, who is terrified of the dentist, started taking her 3 girls (ages 2, 6, and 10) and she loves her and her oldest daughter had some complicated work done with no drama. My co-worker takes her 2 girls there too. We've both been going there for a few years and just recently realized that we do. Great office environment, great staff, great dentist.

I adore my dentist. I have huge dentist anxiety and have ALWAYS cried when I get in the chair and the dentist gets in my face (I had a very bad experience as a child where my fingers got caught in the chair). That is until I met my current dentist. She is just great. Her office is downtown in the loop; hopefully that is ok for you. I don't know about her experince as a children's dentist, but I am expecting and she told me that when I come in I can bring the baby (there is a good area right near the exam space where I could see an infant from the chair) so I know she's pretty flexible. Her name is Michelle Knabe and her number is ###-###-####.

Hi, I do not know what area you live in. If you are anywhere near the Western 'burbs, I highly recommend Dr. Kurt Wagner in downtown Naperville. We have been going to him for around 13 years. Everyone that I have recommended him to and has gone feels the same way I do.

Good luck on your search!

I love my dentist and I really don't like dentists. The hygenist is wonderful too. I've been taking my daughter there since she was 3. As long as they can sit in the sit and be mildly entertained it works out great. She is wonderful with my daughter and so was the dentist. Here is their info...
