★★★★★

I am a Brit, so you know I have a weird relationship with dentists. I hadn’t been in a very long time and was nervous. I can’t remember why I chose White but it is close to my work and that could have been a factor–plus reviews seem good. The space was well designed and clean. I put in the appointment wrong in my calendar but they didn’t make me feel bad about it. I did not wait for long. Emily was so nice. Took her time and made me feel really comfortable and at ease. She checked out my teeth, walked me through everything and gave me a cleaning. Dr. Petar did an exam and gave me advice about what to do next. He made sure all my questions and concerns were answered. Looking forward to going back again. Not sure I expected to say that but I was pleasantly surprised by how good my experience was.

Really great people, atmosphere and location. I have been looking for a dentist for a while now and came across this group. I went for a cleaning today and it could not have been a more pleasurable experience. The people there genuinely care and it shows. My dental hygienist was the nice lady in the world and was so sensitive around my areas of concern in the mouth. I felt nothing the entire time she was cleaning my teeth. The doctor walked in and then made an actual effort to get to know me. Dentist can bill at crazy amounts for their work and this dentist took the time to talk to me about my goals for my teeth and my personal life. I had a wonderful experience and have found a dentist for as long as I live in Chicago.

Just had my first appointment as a new patient with White Dental Studio today, and am super impressed! Their new patient process is super easy, and they send you all forms to fill out electronically before your appointment. The front desk staff is super helpful and easy to reach! The office is beautiful, and left me wondering why all dentists haven’t updated their spaces. It really is so nice in there! My dental hygienist, Emily, was awesome and took extra precaution with the process knowing I am pregnant. She explained everything, was thorough, and very personable. Dr. Petar came in to meet me at the end and do an examination, and although that was quick, he was super friendly and informative as well. I am seriously so excited to have found a new Dentist close to home, especially with such an efficient office and nice staff!

★★★★★

Where do I begin? From start to finish this place was top notch in the service they provided me. Very easy to make and change appointments. Very professional staff. Lindsey my hygienist is a consummate professional. Always asking if I’m doing fine and always explaining what she’s going to do before she does it. Dr Petar is equally as professional. He’s so laid back that any fears you may have about seeing a dentist soon disappear
To make s long story short…..this place rocks !!

★★★★★

A really professionally run business. Everyone was very kind. They are clearly trying to keep the experience safe for both patients and staff during this pandemic. I never felt shamed for small damages to my teeth. The dentist clearly took the time to read my intake information which allowed for a truly tailored discussion about what was best for my teeth. Definitely will be recommending this business to any of my friends looking for a dentist.

Andrew L. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Firstly, as someone who is Scottish, I have a complicated relationship with the dentist. (British teeth. There is a reason for the stereotype.) Consequently, a trip to the dentist is usually the psychological equivalent of knowing the biggest bully is waiting for you outside of school at 3:00pm. However, Dr. Petar has helped me get past the trauma of going to the dentist. He and his staff are friendly and cheerfully willing to answer the most annoying OCD questions someone terrified of the dentist may ask. Also, I really appreciate they play non-dental chair music, which helps me not feel the usual time stopping limbo only ez-listening music can induce. Dr. Petar and the staff at White are exceptional. If you don’t want to spend a lot on therapy and get over your fear of the dentist, you should check White out.

Robert V. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

First off- I rarely write reviews but this dentist office visit was worthy of a positive review. Today, was my first consultation/visit to the dentist. From the initial appointment setting, to the friendly and knowledgeable staff, to the overall experience could not have gone any better. As other folks have said, I generally fear the dentist but here the process is pain free and informative. HIGHLY recommend is an understatement…

★★★★★

Dr Petar and his team are exactly what I value in a dentist: meticulous and thorough regular cleanings; pragmatic and conservative treatment options; and awesome time management. I’ve had far too many experiences where the treatment always starts at the most aggressive/expensive and there’s as much waiting room time as time spent with the provider. Last but not least, Dr Petar equips his practice with modern technology and this shows up in better diagnostics, better care options, and faster turnaround. More recently (covid joys), better technology equates to better digital tools to facilitate the patient experience. All much appreciated!

★★★★★

Great experience with Dr. Petar and his team! Scheduling and filling out pre-appointment forms were so easy with their app. Everyone at the office is so friendly and helpful. Whitney and Dr. Petar were great during my exam, explaining everything they were doing and taking time to answer any questions I had. The office itself is very modern and comfortable. Would recommend them to anyone!

Lilly L. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

It’s been awhile since I rated this place as I’ve been going here for years. This is the first time I’ve had to have major work done (a crown) and I cannot say enough about the professionalism, fun-spirit and trustworthy nature of Dr. Petar and his staff. They are so communicative and not out to recommend dental work if you don’t need it. You can tell that everyone loves working here and enjoy what they do. They are extremely high tech here too, using all the best and cutting edge technology and equipment (think 3D printer for your prosthetic tooth, 3D imaging of your mouth). Each exam room has a tv for you to keep yourself entertained while waiting. But waiting you rarely have to do (unless your tooth is being created) because they are darn on top of things. Like I said, cannot say enough! Best. Dental. Studio. EVER!

★★★★★

Dr Tofovic was my dentist a while back when he practiced downtown. Really great dentist. Very personable and calming. The office atmosphere was very welcoming and friendly as well. I have yet to find a dentist I like as much as Dr Tofovic. I was extremely disappointed when he left the downtown dental office and tried searching for where he was practicing. His new practice is far from me unfortunately. But for anyone with doubts, if you are afraid or uncomfortable this is the dentist to go to.

★★★★★

I always have a great experience at White Dental. The location is great and the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. I never have to wait long. Dr. Tofovic is absolutely the best!! He makes you feel comfortable, listens and then takes time to explain and provide best options. I definitely recommend White Dental.

Kathryn F. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Petar and the white dental team are some of the kindest professionals I have experienced. Everything about this dental studio is top of the line, in a clean and welcoming environment. Netflix, HGTV, friendly staff, good music, the list goes on. My recent visit during COVID times was fantastic, they took all precautionary measures, hand sanitizer, temp check, extra protective equipment, and really seemed to value the safety of their staff and patients. If you are in the dental profession you should dream to work there, if you’re in need of a cleaning you should go there. Not everyone can say they love going to the dentist but I do and they make the experience as pleasant as possible. Thank you!!

I recently moved to West Town and decided to try a dentist that was close by. I always liked my previous dentist’s office, but this place is so close i could throw a rock at it. The energy, vibe and staff are wonderful. Lindsay was my dental hygienist, she was so sweet and made me feel super comfortable. It’s a very personal and thorough experience which I appreciate! Not a “rushed and let’s just get to the next patient” establishment. The office is clean, pristine, and the decor doesn’t scream dentists office. It’s a very posh scene. Felt like I was in Beverly Hills, but the staff treated me like I was back home in Missouri! They seem to have the latest technology also. What I really love is that they don’t push expensive ideas/treatments if it’s not necessary. Super practical, welcoming and fun. Oh and the music was perfection… #stevienicks and #johncougarmellencamp. Highly recommend. I’ll keep coming back no matter where I’m at in the city!

Stan S. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I had just scheduled my first visit to White Dental Studio, so had not yet met my new dentist. Then, a month prior to my appointment, I had a small dental emergency; sight unseen, I was scheduled immediately and my problem was fixed. I loved Dr. Petar and look forward to a happy relationship with my new dental practice!

Danny W. from Encinitas, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

The last guy who worked on my mouth was nicknamed “The Rock-a-Dontist” and used to tour with Ozzy Osborne so needless to say it was a tough act to follow. While Dr. Petar may not be as heavy metal, he runs a pretty awesome operation at White Dental Studio. First off, the lobby looks more like a hipster cocktail lounge than the waiting room at Planned Parenthood which is comforting when you’re about to say ahhh for a stranger. There’s online access to your pre-appointment paperwork and they’re also pretty flexible if something comes up and you’re running late. The dental hygienist I had was hot enough to have me start a steady diet of Halloween candy and super friendly to boot. Granted I just went in for a simple clean and check up, but I’d have to say this place was a pretty freaking great experience.

Jourdan S. from Seattle, WA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

The best. Top to bottom. Dr. Petar is a gem. The space is supremely clean and friendly. His care is amazing in the way that he’s very conservative with treatment, and transparent about what one really needs and what he would do if it was his teeth in question. He’s walked from large sums of insurance $$$ with me as a patient because he does the right thing, vs. the $$$ thing. All the staff and my hygienists over the years have been stellar as well. Personally I don’t have an aversion to dentist visits but many of my friends do. After convincing them to come here they don’t mind it a bit.

Tom B. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

This is by far the best dentist I’ve ever been to. The appointment started exactly on time with no fussing or waiting around. The xrays and cleaning were thorough, expedient, and painless. The staff was fun and friendly, jovial even. Dr. Petar is very friendly and clearly knows what he’s talking about. I feel like Dr. Petar would only recommend doing things that actually need to be done for my benefit. I can’t say the same for every dentist I’ve ever visited.

★★★★★

I was nervous to have my first time back at a dentist since the pandemic started, but when I walked past White Dental Studio and saw how clean and cool it looked through the window, I switched dentists. Today was my first visit and this dental team is AMAZING!!! So friendly, and all of the equipment is the newest stuff. The X Rays and cleaning were painless! The people were so cool. The dentist and hygienist took the time to introduce ourselves and get to know about me as a person. I have to say this was the best experience I have ever had at a dentist in the 3 states I have lived in. I cannot recommend these folks highly enough. Thank you so much!!!

Jason P. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Have been a patient for over 5 years @ White Dental and have really enjoyed the experience, which is saying something about going to the dentist. Dr Tofovic and his staff are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and personable. Most recently was impressed with his Invisalign and in-house teeth straightening options. Was looking to do before my upcoming wedding and was hesitant to do so because of cost and the pain of “braces” again but was pleasantly surprised by how affordable and easy the process was. Took only 8 weeks to get great results and I was able to whiten as well, would recommend to anyone.

I moved back to Chicago and needed to establish a relationship with a dentist for cleaning and treatment. A friend referred me to Dr. Petar’s office and I am extremely satisfied with my experience. Yesterday was my first visit. Scheduling an appointment was easy, they made documentation and X-ray delivery easy online. Emily was my hygienist and she’s is one of the most knowledgeable and professional I have had ever. She was organized and communicated thoroughly in easy to understand terms. I got that she cared about the health of my teeth and mouth and she really knows her stuff. Sonia, the office manager was very professional and helpful. Dr. Petar is an excellent dentist, knowledgeable, thorough and caring. He communicates well, is approachable and extremely professional. It is very clear that he discusses all the treatment options with his patients which is reassuring that you are receiving the best treatment for your individual needs. I am SO HAPPY I found this practice. They are the BEST.

I was in search of a new dentist in my area and I luckily stumbled upon White Dental Studio. They were extremely efficient, professional, timely, and very nice! It was great doing my pre-exam forms online at home before the exam. All of the staff and the dentists were great and very friendly! The office was clean, updated, and there is even a tv to watch during your cleanings/xrays. I highly recommend this dentist!

★★★★★

Cannot recommend this place enough! I have not been to the dentist for a few years and my anxiety about my teeth was building to an all time high. I was worried that I would have a bad experience regardless of the clinic I went to. This place threw all my worries out the window. Everyone from the receptionist to the hygienist and the dentist were beyond helpful, friendly, professional, and thorough. They provided the best experiences I’ve ever had at a dentist’s office. I usually do not leave reviews, but I felt the need to throw my two cents in about this place because they are top notch.

★★★★★

Truly THE best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist in my life. Everyone is extremely kind, the office is very clean and I feel comfortable and safe in their care. I’ve had very bad experiences from dentists in the past so most of my life I have been hesitant. Now that I’ve found this place, I know for sure and for once a place I can stay. Thank you so much for all that you do, it means more than you know!

Dave P. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I just moved to the city and I was refered by a friend. Absolutely amazing. The staff is very friendly. Dr. Petar and everyone else there explain everything that they are doing and what they are going to do next. Making an appointment is no hassle. Great hours. I just started the Invisalign and they were very helpful in getting me started and can already feel the difference. Ha Ha Ha. Thank you White Dental Studio. Dave

★★★★★

I Highly Recommend Dr. Tofovic. I had terrible experience at Halsted Street dental(long story short: I felt like they forced me into having a filling replaced which resulted in an infected tooth). Based on this experience I have been terrified to go back to a dentist. A friend referred me to Dr. Tofovic. I’m so glad she did.I never thought I would say that I had a wonderful experience getting a root canal. Dr. Tofovic was amazing – he was very caring, explained every step and always made sure to check-in with me to ensure I was doing okay. He made me feel very comfortable through the entire process. He even called after my procedure to see how I was feeling. I work across the street and will refer all my coworkers and friends to him. A+

Dr. Tofovic RAWKS! The first time I had an appt with Dr. Tofovic, his hygienist that I was originally scheduled for a cleaning with had an emergency so I got him for the entire exam and cleaning! I got to know him then (tons of QT with the new dentist)… He’s seriously passionate about his job and would have spent all day answering my questions about “snuggie” my beloved snaggletooth (which came back after I stopped wearing my retainer), whitening, flossing (I guess I had been doing it wrong all these years), and fillings that I needed fixed. I gave him plenty of chances to go in for the hard sell on invisalign and whitening (which I got hard core at the old dentist) but he really just presented me with my options and costs and let me decide if it was really worth thousands of dollars to get one tooth fixed. He even said “your imperfections make you perfect,” which totally made me feel like he wasn’t trying to nickel and dime me. I would agree with the other reviewers that he’s totally not rushed, he actually, like, paused at the end of my appt to make sure I didn’t have any more questions (a first for me at any Dr.’s office). Also, he’s quite hip when it comes to new restaurants, art, bars, getting a great deal, and all of the things us yelpers love talking about (I was surprised that he wasn’t an Elite Yelper). I got so caught up talking to him about Rootstock and Humbolt Park that I totally forgot that I was at the dentist. Oh yeah, did I mention that he’s cute and funny too 😉 Total hidden gem, was surprised that there wasn’t a huge Yelp following for Dr. Tofovic.

Unfortunately for me, I have had to have significant dental work done in my lifetime that has brought me to many different dentists over the years. That said, I have never had such a pleasant experience with a dental office as I do with White Dental Studio! Every staff member is extremely personable and kind, and even if they do not remember me when I come in, they make you feel like they do. My previous dentist was pretty pushy about having procedures done and kind of judgmental about my dental history (sorry my childhood dentist sucked), which didn’t make me feel at ease. Additionally, the dental hygienist there did not do a very good job — I literally brushed my teeth and flossed again after I got home from the appointment because they did not feel clean enough. However, Dr. Petar is great! He makes you feel comfortable while walking you through your options when needing to get a second opinion or a potential procedure, and I have never felt pressured to have something unnecessary done. He’s always clear when explaining his diagnoses and is very open to questions or concerns about your oral health. Also, Emily is hands down one of the best dental hygienists I have ever experienced in my life. I have been going to White Dental Studio for about two years now, and I have been extremely impressed and satisfied with visit. I even got my roommate to start seeing them! I found their office through Yelp, so I hope this review encourages you to check them out too.

I am such a huge fan of White Dental! I have lived in the neighborhood since 2016 and started visiting here for my twice a year cleanings in 2017. Everyone who works at White Dental is so friendly, professional, and comforting. I’m not the biggest fan of going to the dentist (is anyone?!) so they really easy my anxiety and provide really great care. I highly recommend White Dental!

★★★★★

I love my dentist- how many people can say that? Besides being knowledgeable, the staff makes you feel like a friend. My teeth have never been better. I’ve never had to wait for an appointment- in fact they often text to say I can some early if available. Works great for me since I’m just around the corner from them. And the office is pretty stylish to boot!

Briana P. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Let me start by saying that I’d rather have open heart surgery than go to the dentist. That may sound dramatic but it’s true. I can’t give enough praise to the entire staff at White Dental Studio, especially the dental assistants! I was reassured and asked how I was doing, more times than I can count. I’ve had pretty crummy experiences at dental offices before but this one was fantastic. Highly recommend, especially if going to the dentist gives you anxiety. You’ll be in great hands at White Dental Studio!

Peggy T. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

Just had my first appointment as a new patient with White Dental Studio today, and am super impressed! Their new patient process is super easy, and they send you all forms to fill out electronically before your appointment. The front desk staff is super helpful and easy to reach! The office is beautiful, and left me wondering why all dentists haven’t updated their spaces. It really is so nice in there! My dental hygienist, Emily, was awesome and took extra precaution with the process knowing I am pregnant. She explained everything, was thorough, and very personable. Dr. Petar came in to meet me at the end and do an examination, and although that was quick, he was super friendly and informative as well. I am seriously so excited to have found a new Dentist close to home, especially with such an efficient office and nice staff!

★★★★★

Without a doubt, White Dental Studio is the best dental practice in Chicago!! The location is perfect, with easy street parking, and the office is beautiful. It is clean, modern, and comfortable. There was no wait even though I arrived ten minutes early for my appointment. The staff is exceptional. Emily was my hygienist and she did the most thorough cleaning that I’ve ever had. She seemed to take the stains on my teeth personally and kept at it until they were nearly spotless. I truly appreciate the time that she put into both the cleaning and the explanations of each and every step along the way. Dr. Petar was equally as fantastic. He was kind, approachable, and candid and he answered all of my questions before I even asked. He was also very thorough and he was understanding and realistic about my teeth alignment and night grinding options. I highly recommend White Dental Studio for everyone, but especially people who may be apprehensive or fearful about dental work. Sometimes in the past I have felt shame for not being as diligent as I should with things like flossing or preventing stains and so I have procrastinated about my biannual cleaning appointments. Because Dr. Petar and Emily made me feel so comfortable, I don’t think that I’ll have that problem in the future. — Emily K. Simpson emsim2626@gmail.com

I’ve been going to White Dental Studio for past 8 years. It doesn’t feel like a typical sterile dental facility. The staff are super warm and friendly and the tools seem state of the art compared to the cleanings I was getting from other places before WDS. Dr Petar is great and super knowledgeable — I always feel taken care of after leaving. Their COVID prevention measures are solid as well. I felt safe going in and receiving a cleaning.

Kim B. from Chicago, IL (Source: Yelp)

You guys! I was SO SCARED to have my old cavity replaced. I haven’t had a cavity since I was a kid. I was really nervous and anxious about my appointment. Dr. Petar explained everything they were doing and it literally took 7 minutes. It was PAINLESS. I’m laughing at myself for making myself so worried about it when it was simple.  I don’t like any doctor appointment but this was I have no problem doing again, if I have to. A+++++
