I love dentistry and am grateful for the opportunity to use that passion to improve peoples lives. Whether alleviating dental pain, restoring or changing a smile, or improving function for a stable bite, I know my work can give my patient peace of mind and happiness.

One of the most intriguing aspects of dentistry is the uniqueness of my day. Each person comes to the office with individual needs, concerns, and desires. It is my responsibility to understand what a patient requires, find the ideal solution to his or her specific situation, then deliver the care in a manner that exceeds expectations.

I want patients to know I personally care about them, and always put their comfort and well-being at the forefront of what I do. I promise to listen without judgment, respect their desires and constraints, and deliver ethical guidance, support, and treatment.

One of the most rewarding aspects of dentistry is having the ability to ease a persons anxiety. Fearful patients who have had negative experiences in the past can be reluctant to seek care. I understand this reticence and invest the time needed to build trust with those who are apprehensive. I will approach treatment at your speed, addressing the most serious issues first, and ensure your comfort throughout the process. Helping someone feel calm and relaxed at the thought of a dental visit, and seeing them regain their oral health, is deeply satisfying.

My remarkable staff shares my passion for oral healthcare and dedication to treating every patient with the greatest respect and compassion. They want each person who walks through our doors to feel at ease in our office, to know we have their best interest at heart, and to finish their visit feeling happier and healthier than when they arrived. Their smiles, and every thank you, make our day!

Dentistry, like all areas of healthcare, is dynamic and constantly advancing. In the almost 40 years I have practiced, the field has undergone remarkable changes: new technologies, methodologies, and materials have changed everything from diagnostics to treatment planning to procedures and outcomes. Dental care is more comfortable and efficient, and delivers longer-lasting improvements to our patients.

Since completing dental school I have pursued a range of CE. In addition to attending seminars and meetings, and taking online courses, I avidly read professional journals to stay current on the latest research findings and discussions.

I grew up in Dolton, and have lived with my family here in Mokena for almost 30 years. My wife Kim and I have been proud to raise our four children Marie, Andrew, Michelle, and Patrick in this community.

When Im not working, or enjoying time with family, Im usually found golfing. If not golfing, Im likely enjoying the outdoors: walking, bike riding, hiking, skiing, and boating are some of my favorite pastimes.

My team excels at treating patients like they are family. Each team member is excellent at answering questions, explaining procedures, and assuaging fears. They are skilled, compassionate, gentle, and give their all to ensure everyone knows how much we care!

Welcome to our office! I graduated from Northwestern University with an associates degree in dental hygiene in 1977.

Whether Im meeting a new patient or checking up on someoneIve seen for years, I enjoy the interaction, both on a professional level and personal level.

The best part of Maloney Dental is that we truly work as a team. Everyone is always willing to pitch in wherever it is needed. I appreciate that Dr. Maloney thinks of each of us as a valued member of the team and treats us as a fellow professional. Plus, we always find time to have a few laughs during the day!

I've been a patient at Dr. Maloney's practice for over 25 years. He is an outstanding dentist! The staff is incredible. They do excellent work and are very personable. I've been referred out for a root canal and an implant. Dr. M does what he does best. I call this the "painless" practice. I've never been afraid to go there for anything. Very accommodating to one's schedule.

I am not a dentist going person so I was quite nervous going. Dr. Maloney and his technician Angel were so patient and caring with me always making sure I was ok during the process! And most importantly I never felt any pain including the shot to numb me up!! From someone who skipped the dentist due to fear, I now will go regularly and recommend anyone needing a dentist go to Dr. Maloney!!

I have gone here for over a decade now and the last five years have been a 45 minute drive from moving . Dr. Maloney is not only incredible at his job but a good guy as well. Every member on the staff has always been polite and professional. It's a great atmosphere where I truly feel welcomed on every visit . I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for dental work.
