Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing or severely damaged teeth. Our titanium implants fuse with the jawbone to create stable foundations for natural-looking crowns. This treatment restores both functionality and aesthetics while preventing bone loss. Patients benefit from improved speech, chewing ability, and confidence with results lasting decades when properly maintained through regular dental checkups.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through veneers, bonding, and smile makeovers. We address discoloration, misalignment, and structural imperfections using advanced techniques. Treatments are customized to achieve natural-looking results that enhance facial aesthetics while maintaining proper bite function. Patients receive personalized consultations to determine optimal aesthetic improvements matching their facial features.
Emergency Dentistry
Same-day emergency dental services address broken teeth, severe pain, and traumatic injuries. Our team provides immediate relief for conditions requiring prompt attention. Treatments include tooth reimplantation, pain management, and infection control. We maintain availability for urgent cases with extended hours to accommodate unexpected dental emergencies in downtown Chicago.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom-made clear aligners. This orthodontic solution addresses crowding, gaps, and bite issues without traditional braces. Patients receive new aligners every two weeks with progress monitored through periodic checkups. The removable system allows normal eating and cleaning while achieving gradual, predictable tooth movement over 12-18 months.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services eliminate deep stains and discoloration through in-office treatments and custom take-home kits. Our methods use professional-grade bleaching agents for dramatic results in one visit or gradual improvement over weeks. The process includes shade analysis to ensure optimal whitening while minimizing sensitivity, with maintenance options to preserve results long-term.

Have been with DD for almost 8 years now. Top notch dentists, latest equipment and no hassles with insurance till date. Biggest draw is they are upfront and honest about complications and surgeries etc. The same cannot be said for many other dentists that we have encountered in the suburbs and the city

Great location. They're always super fast and everyone there is really nice. They book up fast though so if you need to cancel your appointment be prepared to wait months to be seen.

I've gone to Downtown Dental for over 5 years as they have always done a great job. The staff is friendly and pricing is upfront. They don't try to push unnecessary procedures or add-ons.

Downtown Dental has been my primary dental care for the last 7 years since I moved to Chicago. They have been excellent and I've honestly never had an issue! Dr. Borga is absolutely amazing - so kind, considerate and helpful with all of my questions! Michael who has done my cleaning is very thorough and explain the importance of practicing great dental hygiene. I'd 100% recommend them to anyone!

My visit was awesome! For the most part every time I visit the dentist I have a panic attack but not today! The staff made me feel safe and they were very patience with me!
