I founded Northbrook Orthodontics with the goal of creating an office that utilizes technology in combination with my expertise in Orthodontics, to create a great patient experience; not only do we want to offer high quality work, but also pride ourselves in customer service.
As a former Mechanical Engineer, I began using 3-D technologies for rapid prototyping over 20 years ago. In fact, I was one of the first students to utilize 3-D scanning and manufacturing at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, at a newly minted Ford Concurrent Design and Manufacturing Lab. Coincidentally, the technologies that have been used for decades in the Mechanical Engineering industry, have finally found their way to the Orthodontic field.
My graduate studies led me to the University of Illinois at Chicago where I obtained a Doctor of Dental Surgery, as well as a Masters in Oral Sciences with an emphasis on Biomaterials. Thereafter, I attended the University of Rochester (New York), which is a renown program in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.
Having grown up in the North Shore, and after having studied and practiced coast to coast, I am excited to return to the area to serve the Orthodontic needs of this community. I look forward to treating you and your family.
