Nowell E. Blecha DDS, LTD - Oral surgeon in Naperville, IL

Above all else, Dr. Blecha is dedicated towards achieving two objectives: precision and compassion. To accomplish the goal of precision, Dr. Blecha is constantly investigating, researching, and utilizing the most current scientific advances in the field of oral, maxillofacial, and dental implant surgery. Dr. Blecha routinely travels across the country to attend educational lectures and training seminars on all aspects of his field. Additionally, in 1990, Dr. Blecha founded the Dupage Dental Implant Study Club, providing three to four lectures per year to local dental professionals. Dr. Blecha believes that continuous education is an essential element in providing the finest dental care possible, and, as a result, is able to not only utilize the most modern technologies and procedures, but also to make an informed decision on which technique and procedure is right for each individual.

To accomplish the goal of compassion Dr. Blecha strives to create an environment in which patients are well informed, calm, and comfortable. Dr. Blecha believes that informing patients about all aspects of their individual case is not only necessary to ensure that patients make a well-informed decision concerning the best method of care, but also necessary to produce a calm and comfortable experience. Furthermore, Dr. Blecha has created an office in which compassion is considered paramount. Dr. Blechas staff is comprised of highly competent and compassionate individuals who strive to create the finest patient experience possible. From registration to post-operative care, Dr. Blecha and his staff are always available to assist patients in a manner that suits that individual.

Dr. Blecha was born in Hinsdale, Illinois. He received his undergraduate degree in Biology from Loyola University in Chicago. Dr. Blecha went to Loyola School of Dentistry in Maywood, Illinois for his Doctorate in Dental Surgery, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude. After earning his DDS degree, Dr. Blecha then completed his residency at Cook County Hospital in Chicago. Dr. Blecha founded his current practice in Naperville in 1981. He successfully completed his board examination from the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in 1984. This is an optional examination not required for state licensure but as in the medical field indicates a higher level of academic knowledge.

As a dedicated husband and father of five, Dr. Blecha has many interests outside of dentistry. He enjoys baseball, golf, and music. Dr. Blecha has also volunteered his time and surgical care multiple times on mission trips through St. Thomas The Apostle Church to Duchity, Haiti.

I had an excellent experience at Dr. Blecha's office today. I had been leary due to some negative reviews, but he was so nice, so patient, efficient and caring. His staff was upbeat, helpful, and pleasant. No one was rude and everything was explained very well to me before we even started. He was gentle and I did not have any pain during the oral surgery. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Jandali and his assistants were all true professionals, and displayed genuine concern and empathy. Having a tooth extracted is not something anyone looks forward to, but the overall experience was as positive as it could have possibly been, with no pain whatsoever.

My daughter had all four wisdom teeth out with Dr.Jandali. Her lower teeth were very close to the nerve. There were not easy to take out. My daughter was very scared she did want to be put to sleep .The girls from the front desk to the back are all very nice. Dr.Jandalis team were very compassionate and caring to my daughter. They ask her what her favorite music was. They put the music on for her. Jill one of Dr.Jandalis assistant gave me the directions to a good smoothie place to get my daughter one when she came out of surgery. Jill even called in the prescriptions for us, so I could pick them up before our hour drive home. The recovery for my daughter was not bad at all. Very informative with the instructions. I highly recommend Dr.Jandali and his staff. I would definitely go back for his services.Thank you so much for being so kind to us.Anna and Rhea.

Dr. Jandali and his staff are AMAZING!! About two weeks ago I had all four wisdom teeth removed. At first I was a little nervous because of having the surgery and anesthesia but Dr. Jandali and his team were so caring and compassionate. They made me feel super comfortable and at ease. Before my surgery they gave my mom my prescriptions to fill ahead of time so right when I got out of surgery I could take my pain meds and antibiotics. AND they gave my mom directions and a menu to the nearest smoothie place because we weren't similar with the area. The surgery only took about 45 minutes or so. (I would totally recommend receiving anesthesia. I don't remember anything!)The recovery process for me was so smooth and pain free. Everyone's pain tolerance is different, but I was so thankful I didn't have much pain. Everything is healing up nicely and I have no complaints. Again, THANK YOU DR. JANDALI! You have a great staff and facility! (:

My daughter had her wisdom molars removed and while the process is not pain free, she is recovering quite nicely thanks in part to the good care of Dr Blecha's staff.

Dr. Jandali and staff were very supportive for a surprise tooth extraction and bone graft in preparation for an implant. Professional, took the time I needed to answer my questions, did everything possible to make the procedure as painless as possible, and made sure I was fully prepared for after care.

After months of different surgeons jerking me around, insurance problems (turning 26!), and astronomical estimates from other consultations, my primary care referred me to Dr. Blecha. I was in for my consultation and my surgery was two days later! If you really knew how much struggle I had went through to get my wisdom teeth out, you would realize how amazing that is and how accommodating and amazing him and his staff are! Dr. Jindali did my surgery and although I'm still in the recovery process, so far so good! Everyone was really sweet and helpful and amazing and I would definitely recommend this office for those who are looking for a place to get their wisdom teeth removed or for any oral surgery you may need.

I saw Dr. Blecha on an emergency basis. I had a large hole on the inside of my cheek which was extremely swollen and a low-grade fever. At first he was somewhat kind, but condescending. After the "exam" (he looked in my mouth for a minute) he told me it was normal physically and that my issue was psychological so would not treat me. I was asking questions about it as we walked to the reception desk and, as I waited to check out, he began literally YELLING at me. Shocked, I left without checking out with the receptionist (who witnessed this). Afterwards, I noted that he improperly charged both my Medical AND Dental Insurances for his "exam" and had to let both companies know. He ended up owing them money back for improper/double billing. When I called seeking an apology for all of this, I was placed on speaker phone and again yelled at AND threatened by him and his staff (said they would write negatives in my chart and also start a "case" against me). The receptionist who witnessed the yelling by Dr. Blecha had previously admitted to seeing it during a private phone conversation, but in this speaker phone call, it was obvious that she was being coached or "forced" into saying she didn't witness it. Months passed and I developed other symptoms in addition to the swollen face, etc. but I dared not seek treatment. Finally, my GP directed me to the ER where I received IV antibiotics and 21 days of oral antibiotics for a severe, chronic parotid gland (salivary gland) and lymph node infection. This diagnosis is easy-peasy for a pro like Blecha--either he is incompetent or is cruel and careless. Per the positive reviews here, I don't believe he is incompetent. I gave one star for getting me in on an emergency basis and 1 star for him being nice at first. Buyer beware. PLEASE get a second opinion and WATCH YOUR BILLING!!!
