Dentist for Buffalo Grove Families

Yes. Omni Dental is a general and family practice, so children, teens and adults are seen at the same office. Routine children's care such as checkups, cleanings and fillings happens here. If a child needs extensive treatment, Dr. Poles will talk with you about a pediatric referral.

There is no single price. It depends on whether the visit is a checkup, a filling or an extraction, whether X-rays are needed, and what your plan pays. Call (847) 483-8833 and ask the front desk what your plan may cover before any treatment starts.

Often, yes. Baby teeth hold space for the adult teeth and matter for chewing and clear speech. A decayed baby tooth can become painful or infected long before it would fall out. Dr. Poles checks how close the adult tooth is, then suggests a filling, extraction or watching it.

For the first few days, offer soft foods that need little chewing, like yogurt, scrambled eggs, applesauce or mashed potatoes. Skip straws and very hot drinks, since they can disturb the clot that protects the socket. Dr. Poles gives aftercare instructions that fit your child's extraction.

Call (847) 483-8833 to ask about openings for each family member. To move your family over, ask your old office to send recent X-rays and records once you sign a release. Bring a list of any medicines each person takes to the first visit.
