PATIENT REVIEWS

Best experience I’ve had with a dentist EVER!.. Dr Ali and his staff are extremely professional and caring.  I received immediate assistance as new patient, with an emergency, and during the weekend… Dr Ali explains in detail the procedures and makes sure you’re Ok and comfortable. His bedside manners are the best I’ve seen and I will definitely come back…HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

After 4 years of searching for dentists, I found Dr. Ali Tekdogan. We live in the city in Chicago, and I traveled to Deerfield for Dr. Tekdogan – It was well worth it. My experience was amazing and I got treated right away. He does not perform any unnecessary treatments, really through and helpful. I went with a pain on my upper right side and Joyce only took one X-Ray of that area! I am being treated for the infection I had and possibly need replacement of a filling. Scheduling with Jackie is really easy and they are pretty flexible to set an emergency appointment. I cannot be more grateful to find Dr. Tekdogan and his team. We are already scheduled to see him again! If you are looking for a dentist, he is the one! Do not over search for anything else. It is definitely worth traveling from Chicago area! I am so happy to find a place that I can trust! It took four years to land on a great one. Before finding him, I went to two different places with a pain and all they did was to take bunch of X-rays, comprehensive evaluation and send me home saying that I need crowns, replacement of many fillings, tongue exercises (which are not covered by insurance). It was really sad to be left untreated and going through many X-Rays, as well as a comprehensive evaluation without emergency pain treatments. You can’t imagine the estimated bills I got! Finally, we found an honorable and ethical doctor. Thank you, Great Smile Deerfield!

Have been to many dentists in my life but this is the best and most comfortable and confident I have ever felt during a dental appointment. Dr. Tekdogan and his staff make you feel very comfortable and they demonstrate a care that is is truly exceptional. I highly, highly recommend.

Dr. Tekdogan saved the day. I was on travel in Waukegan, IL and I chipped a tooth. As I spend my time between St. Louis and Vancouver, BC, I was in a pickle. Dr. Tekdogan was able to work me in within 24 hours and fixed my chipped tooth. I was a little concerned that the color of the filling would not match. I know it is close to Halloween, but I did not want a smile that looked like Indian Corn. He did a great job of matching the color of the tooth. It was a painless and quick procedure. Dr. Tekdogan and his staff were exceptional communicators and very nice. I especially enjoyed Dr. Tekdogan’s bedside manner. I will go out of my way to see him again. He is the best dentist I have seen in the last 20 years. Thank you so much.

Per usual my dental appt. with Dr Tekdogan was first-rate. Friendly, upbeat, thorough, professional & kind are the best ways to describe how him and Joyce go about their business. This man is one of the best Dentists I’ve ever had the privilege of submitting to! I say that with the highest respect. My own father-in-law was my dentist before he retired in 2012. So, what does that say?

Dr Tekdogan is a wonderful dentist with a conservative and professional approach. I actually had a pain free filling today. I have not said that before. He numbed the area to the point where I did not feel the needle or freezing entering my jaw. As well, he only froze the tooth not the whole side of my mouth so I could eat soon after. He and his staff were really great with my girls as well. Not having the best past experiences, they were happy for checkups and regular cleanings. Hopefully, this will restore their faith in dentists. If you looking for a great family dentist, give Dr Tekdogan a call. You will not be disappointed!!

Saturday I woke up with an extremely swollen left jaw and lip. I went online to hopefully find a dentist that was open and there were not many. I found Great Smile and called them to ask if they could see me that day. Dr. Tekdogan called me right away (even though I was not a current patient) and told me he would call an antibiotic into the pharmacy near me. He than had Jackie set up an appointment for me to come in on Sunday at 2:00 p.m. When I arrived I noticed I was the only patient in the office and discovered that Jackie and Dr. Tekdogan opened up the office just for my emergency!!!! They were both so very nice, extremely careful, and I had a the infected tooth extracted right away with very little pain. We are new to the area and I have already decided that Great Smile will be our family practice going forward! Thank you so very much for helping me when I needed you the most Dr. Tekdogan and Jackie!

Dr. Ali and his entire staff are always very professional, extremely knowledgeable, kind and very friendly. He has treated me, my wife and our two grown children for many years now. He is an excellent dentist and stays current with all new dental procedures and dental trends. I can highly recommend Dr. Ali and his entire staff. Tim H

Dr Ali and his staff are very friendly, professional, and skilled. My wait time is minimal and their “bedside manor” is always respectful as they skillfully complete their exam/cleaning/procedure. I appreciate the reminder call the day before and the follow-up phone call after a major procedure. The business office is accurate, timely, and helpful.

I am the biggest wimp when it comes to going to the dentist. Seriously. But Dr. Ali is the only dentist I have ever been to that made a trip to the dentist a pleasant experience – and I have been seeing him for over 10 years now! He has filled cavities, helped with a crown – and I never felt pain, terrified, etc. Thank you so much for the great experience!

Dr. Ali is always there for me. I had agonizing pain in a molar I cracked and I called him on a Sat. night and he rushed to take care of my emergency- he met me at his office within an hour, took me out of pain immediately & I just left his office (Sunday morning) after the start of a root canal, feeling 1000% better! I’m forever grateful to Dr. Ali & Joyce for their call to duty so professionally!! Many, many �Thanks!!!

Always excellent Kathy is like good friend and very good in regard to informing me of issues and items I can do to promote better dental health. Doc is friendly & professional excellant at explaining issues and items that down the road need attention 🙂

As an RN, living in Deerfield, I am very particular about my choice of health care professionals. Now that my dental plan from work has changed once again, I am able to see Dr. Ali, Cathy for my cleanings. I cannot say enough about the entire staff…they are professional, friendly, and patient oriented to the max! Does anyone actually “enjoy” going to the dentist? I actually do, Dr. Ali has had to replace a very old filling for me, it was painless…just the way it should be! Looking forward to my next visit in 2 weeks Dr Ali!

Dr. Tekdogan is the best dentist in the Chicago area, period. He is not only kind and courteous, but he takes genuine interest in his patients. He cares about their worries, he cares about their needs, and he provides great service. One time, he discovered an issue with one of my teeth. I told him I didn’t have the funds to get it done at the moment. He said “no problem, the tooth will be ok for about 4-5 months, and we can take care of it in your next visit.” What other dentist do you guys know that suggests saving you money?

Dr. Ali Tekdogan is no longer at Ravinia Dental or Evanston Dental. He has moved and opened up his own practice in Deerfield, at Great Smile Dentistry. He is caring, compassionate and works quickly and painlessly. I had to visit a few dentists before I could find one that wont rip people off. Dr. Ali offers fantastic service at great prices. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Tekdogan has been my dentist for over 20 years both at his Nebraska office and his Illinois office. Dr. Tekdogan is patient, understanding, and respected my concerns as a patient with a huge fear of dental work. I have had several dental procedures done over the years and have always been thankful to have found such a great and honest dentist. Thank you!

Dr. Tekdogan listened to me and my problem very carefully. I think he was VERY knowledgeable and his judgement was on point. He explained what the cause of my problem is and how to fix it, and offered me solutions and recommended only the things I needed.

I had a bad fall which resulted in my front tooth being knocked out, and chipping the other front tooth. I had never been to Dr. Ali, but making an appointment was quick and easy. Dr. Ali saw me on a Monday after I had tried to set the appointment on the previous Friday, two days earlier. I went to Dr. Ali and it was the best decision I could have made for myself. He was professional, friendly, knowledgable, and the staff were helpful and the whole experience made me feel at home. Once he started on my teeth, I felt no pain. I have a terrible phobia of needles- an irrational fear that I cannot explain, and most of the medical professionals I have seen in my life exhibit obvious annoyance when I explain what effect needles have on me. Dr. Ali numbed my lip, and had finished giving me the shot before I even knew that he had a needle. I did not feel the needle- not only was it painless, but there was literally NO sensation of a needle- no pinch, no odd tingling, just no feeling whatsoever. I was impressed with this alone, but when he began using the tool to grind my tooth down, I felt nothing- just a vague scent of something a little odd, but NO PAIN! In just one week’s time, Dr. Ali had the lab make my new tooth, and in only 6 days, I had gone from having a missing front tooth to having my teeth look BETTER than they did before. I am so happy with the expertise demonstrated- I can bite into ice cream again!! I wish that every dentist would do half as good a job as Dr. Ali did for me. If that were the case, I don’t think anyone would fear going to the dentist ever again.

We moved to Deerfield this year and I wanted to find a Dentist office in the area and that could take care of the whole family. Well, let me give Dr. Ali and his staff 10 stars!! They are so kind to my three kiddos, and also are taking care of my husband and myself. I had an emergency situation with my little girl, his staff called me back that same day and he saw us the next morning even though his office was closed. We all are so happy with found this practice. If you are looking for a great Dentist, look no more!

I arrived early for my appointment and was escorted to a treatment room. Dr. Tekdogan came in right away and provided the services I needed assisted by Joyce. Dr. T. cleaned my teeth to perfection and checked for cavities–none and any other issue–none. Dr. Tekdogan and Joyce are professions who make every effort to keep me comfortable. They are all superior professionals. I have recommended several people to contact Dr. Tekdogan’s office when they need dental treatment

Dr. Tekgodan is quite possibly the best dentist who ever treated me. With apologies to my father-in-law, who will never read this. So, let’s exclude him. I have never had an issue after seeing the folks at Great Smiles. Everyone at the office is top notch professional. Highly recommend these dental professionals with a big thumbs up!

I had a routine checkup and cleaning appointment. The Doctor came in right as my cleaning was finished and provided a quick review of my mouth. He was very efficient and offered recommendations in a very friendly and professional manner. This is a great location and service for your dental needs.
