Dr. Douglas Shindollar was born in Indiana and wanted to be a dentist since his second year of high school. The first person in his family to finish college, he went on to graduate second in his dental school class at the Indiana University. He then moved to Chicago to complete a two-year general practice residency program at Michael Reese Medical Center. This program provided him with additional training in all the modern aspects of family dentistry and gave him the opportunity to learning more complex, advanced procedures. In addition to completely his residency training, Dr. Shindollar also became an instructor at Michael Reese.
Dr. Shindollar combines his training and experience with his warm personality and sense of humor to provide the best treatment modern dentistry has to offer in a very relaxed, friendly, patient center dental office.
Although no one has ever established any risk from dental x-rays, we feel strongly that no x-rays should ever be taken without a very good reason and any necessary x-rays should always use the least amount of radiation possible.
Modern digital sensors and advanced computer software are just one example of the advantages of a modern dental practice. Unfortunately, over half the dental offices in this country still do not use digital!
Dr. Shindollarstrong recommendations that before you have any x-rays taken, you understand why they are recommended, verify that they are digital, and then confirm they can be emailed directly to you at no cost.

Dr. Shindollar and his staff all provided great friendly service. They talk about the options when you need work, giving you candid advice. They do a nice job - easy on both your mouth while working and fair to your pocketbook when finished. We like the "family practice" atmosphere rather than the "production line" service.

If you think you can't feel comfortable in a dentist chair, you are wrong. I couldn't believe how comfortable I could be getting dental work done. The whole team is amazing
