Our goal is to educate our patients thoroughly to empower them to make confident dental decisions. We believe that real value in dentistry comes from dentistry that not only repairs, but prevents.

Our office is conveniently located in Port Byron, IL and we invite you to call with any questions or send us a message via theContact Us page of our web site. We will do everything possible to ensure you a pleasant visit.
Only the highest standards of care are acceptable at Port Byron Family Dentistry. We treat each of our patients individually.

Yes we work with patients to make dental care affordable. Finances should not affect your dental health. We accept cash, checks and credit cards. We also work with Care Credit to arrange alternative financial arrangements.
Yes When it is in your best interest to see a specialist we will refer you. This includes oral surgeons (oral surgery), periodontists (gum specialists), orthodontists (tooth straightening), endodontists (root canals) and pedodontists (childrens dentistry).
Yes Denture teeth wear and so does the bone the denture fits on. Poorly fit or worn dentures can/may cause sleep apnea, stroke or even death. Yearly cancer screenings, exams of denture users are extremely important.
Yes we currently have digital x-rays These are easier to read than film. We also have the ability to manipulate contrast which makes diagnosis more accurate. We also use an intra-oral camera to help identify dental problems and help patients understand their dental needs. We use electric handpieces that are quieter and more comfortable than the traditional air driven handpieces. We also have a soft tissue laser that comfortably removes unhealthy tissue in the mouth.

My first visit was most pleasant. Staff was kind, friendly yet professional, efficient, skilled, informative and timely! You feel comfortable and accepted as soon as you walk in the door. For general dentistry, they offer quite a few services within their field of expertise. Will definitely become a regular patient and highly recommend them.

My first experience at location was better than expected considering as an adult the thought of a dentist still scares me. They were very professional and understanding about my anxiety. I had Larissa and let me tell you the best person I ever had to do x-rays, cleaning, and exam. I recommend Port Byron dentistry to anyone. I'm so glad I found them. They explained my treatment plan and simple things I can do to extend my cleaning. Thank you for being top notch!
