“Hi, I am Dr. Douglas Head. Practicing orthodontics allows me to improve my patient’s health and appearance and is the best job I can imagine. I love my work! Since my start in orthodontics in 2000, I enjoy going to the office each day, spending time with great patients, and being supported by an exceptional orthodontic staff.”
He is currently a board member of the Illinois Society of Orthodontists, ADA American Dental Association, AAO American Association of Orthodontists, CDA Chicago Dental Association and the ISDS Illinois State Dental Society.
Many patients tell us it is rare an orthodontist like Dr. Head, anexperienced orthodontist who is just as compassionate and caring as they are qualified. Please review Dr. Heads orthodontic and dental educational highlights below.
Dr. Head and his wife Andrea have two boys, Graham and Ethan. When spending time away from his orthodontic practice, Dr. Head enjoys spending time with his family and all the opportunities the outdoors has to offer, like golfing, running, surfing and sports at the beach.
Since 2000, Dr. Head has been exclusively practicing orthodontics. The team at Head Orthodontics is skilled, intelligent, courteous and highly trained to make sure you and your family are as comfortable and satisfied as possible throughout each visit during your orthodontic treatment plan.
For your convenience, we accept credit cards, and flexible spending accounts. Also, our office offers an interest-free payment plan where an initial down payment is necessary before treatment begins. After the initial down payment, the balance of the contract is paid in monthly installments over the course of your treatment. This payment plan is flexible and can be tailored to suit your needs. We offer a 4% discount if you pay in full with a check, and a 2% discount if you pay in full with a credit card. Additional family member discounts are also available.
Our orthodontic office is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits as it relates to your orthodontic services. Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts. Many insurance policies have a lifetime orthodontic benefit that is distinct from regular dental insurance. As a service to our patients, once your orthodontic treatment has started we will file your insurance claims. If you have any questions, our staff is always available to answer them.
Please remember that orthodontic insurance is a benefit for you or your child. If during the course of treatment, your benefits change, the financially responsible party is accountable for all charges.
At Head Orthodontics, Dr. Head and our staff work diligently to give you a comfortable experience and outstanding result. While were grateful to receive your positive feedback and praise, we take great pride in watching our patients confidence soar as they flash their new smiles.
