For me, orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth. Orthodontics is the way of helping my patients to improve their lives by giving them a beautiful, healthy, and confident smile. Orthodontic treatment changes lives by making patients smiles more attractive and significantly improving their confidence and self-esteem. I am proud to be able to provide orthodontic treatment to the residents of Arlington Heights and neighboring areas, says Arlington Heights orthodontist, Dr. Yarmolyuk.

After completing his undergraduate studies in Biology, Dr. Yaroslav Yarmolyuk attended the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), College of Dentistry, where he received extensive theoretical and clinical training in dentistry. During his studies at UIC, Dr. Yarmolyuk obtained a Bachelor of Science in Dentistry and a Doctor of Dental Surgery degrees. Dr. Yarmolyuk was involved in a variety of research and leadership activities and is a recipient of multiple honors and awards.

After receiving his dental degree, Dr. Yarmolyuk continued his training at Marquette University post-graduate orthodontic residency. This intense full-time, two-year training in orthodontics and craniofacial orthopedics prepared him to treat even the most challenging orthodontic cases. Dr. Yarmolyuk constantly increases his knowledge and keeps up with the new techniques and advances in the field of orthodontics by attending professional meetings and continuing education courses. Dr. Yarmolyuk holds a specialty dental license in orthodontics. Dr. Yarmolyuk resides in the Northwest suburbs with his wife, son and daughter.

Studying Orthodontics has allowed me to tangibly see the difference that you can make in someones life, whether big or small. Giving someone the confidence to smile with pride is a privilege. I know something as simple as a healthy and beautiful smile can mean an improved outlook on life, says Dr. Arboleda.

Dr. Arboleda was born and raised in Colombia, where she received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and a degree as specialist in Orthodontics. She moved to Chicago in 2009 and after three years of residency, Dr. Arboleda received her Master of Science degree in Oral Sciences and Certificate of Orthodontics from the University of Illinois at Chicago. In 2015, Dr. Arboleda became a Diplomat of the American Board of Orthodontics. Only 25% of all orthodontist go through the rigorous testing process to become board certified and Dr. Cleidy is one of them!

Dr. Inna Sydorak was born and raised in Ukraine. She and her family immigrated to New York City back in 2003. While in New York she earned her undergraduate degree in Economics at Hunter College where she was a participant of its Honors Program from which she graduated with the highest Summa Cum Laude distinction. She went on to complete her dental training at Columbia University where she was at the top of her class. Dr. Sydorak obtained her specialty degree in Orthodontics from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her thesis work on bone biology and tooth movement has won a research award and is currently being reviewed for publishing in a scientific journal.

Dr. Sydorak could not be happier in Chicago. Between creating smiles, reading her favorite books, jogging by the beautiful Lake Michigan, and enjoying everything else that this amazing city has to offer, you will always see her smiling as she enjoys the work she does and always strives to deliver her best!

I do not have an orthodontic philosophy. I think that every person is unique and should receive his or her own individualized treatment plan. I want to provide my patients with the best care possible, and newer treatments are continuously being developed. says Dr. LaBlonde.

Dr. Dao was born in Liberal, KS, but his family moved all over the country before settling in Saginaw, MI. Growing up, Dr. Dao was already timid and shy. Not having a great smile contributed to that. I had buck teeth, Dr. Dao says, my canines were growing in near my nose. After I had braces, that was when I blossomed into a more outgoing person. As an orthodontist, I want to instill that same confidence in other people.

  • Dr. Sediqzad grew up in Overland Park, Kansas. In her hometown, she completed a Bachelor of Arts in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish in 2008 at the University of Kansas. Dr. Sediqzad finds it so rewarding being part of a profession that allows her to transform smiles, and ultimately lives.

    What made Dr. Sediqzad want to be an orthodontist? Dr. Sediqzad mentions that it is a fun atmosphere, fast-paced and that she considers creating each smile like solving a puzzle. The precision and planning behind treating each patient are as satisfying as viewing the final outcome.

    Ive always wanted to be a dentist since I was a kid. When I was in dental school I loved orthodontics because of the happy general atmosphere in the clinic and the fact that orthodontists improve peoples lives and give them confidence, says Dr. Alsamawi.

    Im excited to join the Orthodontic Experts team. I look forward to sharing my experience working with patients of all ages and my passion for orthodontics and I am excited to learn from the Orthodontic Experts team and continue to develop personally and professionally.

    Dr. Rakstang is originally from Oak Park, IL. He had braces as a teenager and appreciates the benefits of orthodontic treatment. He enjoys creating beautiful, healthy smiles for his patients and having a positive impact on their lives, just as his orthodontist did for him!

    Dr. Reyes grew up in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. In his hometown, he completed his training where Dr. Reyes was a partner in a group orthodontic practice for over 14 years before moving to Chicago to experience the beautiful Windy City life and be closer to his family.

    What made Dr. Reyes want to be an orthodontist? When Dr. Reyes was a kid, he loved to fix things, even going so far as to take things apart just to see how all of the pieces fit together to make it work. He wasnt personally great about wearing his orthodontic appliances for the required number of hours. However, Dr. Reyes was fascinated by how the headgear, expanders, and rubber bands applied force to alter the position of his teeth. He even often helped his friends put their headgear and elastics in properly because it made sense to him about what direction the teeth were supposed to move. Dr. Reyes is drawn to the precision and complexity involved in creating beautiful and functional smiles.

What she finds most rewarding about her career is creating beautiful smiles leading to greater confidence overall and a sense of well-being. Dr. Patel connects with the patients on a personal level, often building everlasting bonds and motivating them to go out into the world to make a difference. With a confident smile.

    Dr. Patels goal for each patient is to enhance their smile aesthetics and ultimately the quality of life. As each patient is different, she thoroughly considers various treatment options for each patient and then creates the best and the most effective treatment plan to move forward with. Before commencing treatment, she explains each treatment option in detail to the patient and proceeds only after the patient is comfortable.

    According to Dr. Patel, the most exciting part of joining Orthodontic Experts is that OEs mission and values align with hers. At OE, the patients are the priority and are treated with care and respect. Dr. Patel believes in making the treatment fun and exciting for each patient, and OE is the best place to bring such positivity in the treatment approach.

    Dr. Patel likes to explore different cultures and cuisines and her passion for traveling has taken her to twenty countries so far, and she plans to cover many more. Dr. Patels loves hiking and outdoor activities, being from the west coast; Dr. Patel is out in nature any opportunity she gets. Above all, she loves to spend time with her husband, family members, and friends.

    Dr. Hiroshi Ueno was born in Nishinomiya, Japan and grew up in Yokohama, Japan. According to him, He wanted to become an orthodontist because he used to have crooked teeth, but could not get braces as a kid growing up do to financial reasons. However, throughout the years Dr. Hiroshi Ueno received the comprehensive orthodontic treatment as an adult. The experience he had received from his treatment made him want to become an orthodontist because he can offer efficient and excellent orthodontic treatments to all the patients just like what he received.

    Dr. Hiroshi Ueno went through many schooling to become an orthodontist. He received his DDS from Tohoku, which is one of the seven former imperial universities in Japan. Later, after Dr. Hiroshi Ueno graduated with his DDS, he then received his MSD and his Orthodontic Certificate from Saint Louis University.

    Dr. Hiroshi Ueno loves to play tennis and basketball? Yep, that is correct! Also, during Dr. Hiroshi Uenos free time, while he is not working, he loves to play a traditional Japanese instrument called the Sanshin and the guitar.

    Dr. Hiroshi Ueno has been a faculty member at Saint Louis University for five years, and was chosen as the outstanding instructor of the year in 2017 and 2019. Therefore, Dr. Hiroshi Ueno is most excited about helping Orthodontic Experts offer evidence-based high-quality orthodontic treatments to the patients.

    I decided to become an orthodontist because I went through orthodontic treatment when I was younger and it felt it changed my life. I became confident with my smile and was amazed by what an orthodontist could do for someone. I also realized I would be passionate to provide the same happiness for someone else. I treat every patient with the care I once received, and I enjoy every aspect of it!

    Each Invisalign aligner makes slight tooth movements. Every one or two weeks you will be given a new Invisalign aligner to wear, which continues the teeth straightening process. As with traditional braces, treatment with Invisalign can last anywhere from six months to a few years, depending on the complexity of the case.

  • Invisalign aligners are removable and you have the flexibility to take them out to eat and drink what you want during treatment. There are no dietary restrictions during Invisalign treatment since the trays are removed before eating.
  • Invisalign aligners can be removed to brush and floss as you normally would. Therefore its a lot easier to maintain good oral hygiene during Invisalign treatment as compared to orthodontic treatment with traditional braces. For this reason, we often recommend Invisalign treatment to patients with less than perfect oral hygiene for patients with a higher risk of dental caries.
  • Your orthodontic visits during Invisalign treatment will be shorter and dont involve wire adjustments and discomfort afterwards. There is also greater flexibility in scheduling your adjustments since most of the times you dont need to be seen on a fixed schedule.
  • There are no restrictions when it comes to sports and physical activities with Invisalign. If you or your child plays contact sports, unlike traditional braces, Invisalign trays can be removed for sports practices or games so that you or your child can wear a mouthguard for protection.
  • Invisalign treatment simulation software allows you to view your virtual treatment results before you start. You can see the actual planned tooth movements and final results and ask questions about your future treatment before it even starts.
  • To reach a Diamond Plus Provider level, an orthodontist must complete a higher level training course. They must also treat a certain number of patients with Invisalign or Invisalign Teen to gain experience and competence.

    What should I say first? Everyone on staff is a joy to be around, and they genuinely want to help you reach your best smile! So far, they've been successful in straightening things out! I couldn't be more pleased; they could make scheduling appointments easier, though; it takes forever to talk to someone; I just wish I could just call the office; and they made booking appointments simple, though they can be months out. I'd give Orthodontic Experts a nine out of-ten and I'd recommend them!

    Quality of the work is good, but the office staff are lazy and incompetent. We emailed over the new insurance information in early May as soon as it switched. We get a call in June threatening to withhold treatment and cancel my wife's appointment unless the balance is paid in full. They never submitted a work-in-progress claim to the new policy. They said "just pay it and we'll reimburse you when the insurance pays" I'm supposed to give you an interest-free loan because you failed to do your job?? What's your motivation to ever even try to process the claim if I just pay it? After a few calls, the manager granted a 30 day grace period to process the claim that was supposed to have been initiated a month prior. Now two more weeks have passed, and my insurance company still has not received any claim. The people here do not return phone calls, do not follow up on anything. It's easy to get someone on the phone and they say "ah yes I'll do this and this and I'll call you back" and then they do none of that. Also the office said my wife could get a referral bonus for signing me up with Invisalign, but when I did, they refused to pay out. The office here is a complete joke and I regret coming here. The technicians and the orthodontists do excellent work but it's not worth it to deal with these kind of office staff. Update: I just got a letter from Delta Dental that their claim submission for my wife was rejected because Delta Dental did not receive the correct member ID, date of birth or name spelling. The name on my Invisalign aligners is misspelled too--it's a wonder that claim actually went through. This office staff is really horrible. So I'm stuck making double payments while I wait for these people to figure out how to copy numbers from one piece of paper to another because they don't even file claims electronically. These boomers PRINT documents and send them in the MAIL, so there's a one month delay between each one of the erroneous attempts to process the claim. They also billed the incorrect amount. Go somewhere else. Update 2: finally was submitted correctly and payments going through. +2 stars

    I love this place. They have made getting braces possible for me. They are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and quick about their work. I love that I'm in and out of my appointments very fast. The consultation was completely free and they explained everything in details that I understood. Very flexible payment options and even ways to earn rewards by just doing simple things . Can't thank them enough. If you're considering braces please call them!
