I love being an orthodontist. Everyone deserves a beautiful smile, and that is exactly what we provide for our patients. We combine the latest technology with time-tested, conservative techniques to straighten teeth and align jaws. The result is a spectacular smile that lasts a lifetime. Dr. Saylor

He went on to obtain his Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, where he graduated with high academic standing and was honored to represent his class as dental school president. Followingdental school, Dr. Saylor completed his advanced graduate study in orthodontics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Dentistry.
Dr. Saylor continually studies the latest advances in orthodontic treatment through membership and participation in the Illinois Society of Orthodontists and the American Association of Orthodontists. He believes that his attention to detail, ability to listen, kind demeanor, and conscientious mindset make him an excellent addition to Dr. Murphys team.

After serving in the army, Dr. Murphy enjoyed a general practice here in Glen Ellyn with Dr. John Clancy. They worked together for five years until Dr. Murphy had the opportunity to study orthodontics at the University of Detroit in swinging downtown Detroit.
Orthodontics has been a way of life in Glen Ellyn for Dr. Murphy at several locations. The present office building originally was thepractice of a pioneer in orthodontics, Dr. Karl Von Der Height. Dr. Murphy first remodeled the office in 1985 and itwas completely reconstructed in 2001/2002.
Dr. Murphys personal interests include downhill skiing, photography, traveling, and most recently, golf. He and his wifeKathyenjoy sharing these interests with their four children:Brian, Kathleen, Sean, and Megan.
Dr. Murphy feels great fulfillment when he contributes more than smiles to the community.

Many passersby have stopped in to thank Dr. Murphy for his continued support of the community.
