As a new patient I'm very happy with the service I received. :) Dr. Jodhan provided excellent care and support for my periodontal issues. She's very gentle, thorough, friendly and available for all of my questions. Her office is immaculate and inviting. Her staff are kind professionals with friendly demeanors. Dr. Jodhan is truly an excellent advanced specialist and I'm happy to have chosen her for my dental care. Excellent Care/Excellent Service!!!!!!! read more

Misrepresentation, Pre-Charging without consent, and Privacy Breach. I do not recommend Nikisha Jodhan. Across three procedures from 2021 to 2025, after reviewing the history of my account, I was quoted a lower price each time and then billed more after the procedures were done. They blamed the insurance and the app they use to estimate, but the fact is they don't do pre-authorization for their quotes. For my recent procedure in 2025, they failed to disclose a prior denial for the same code and same tooth from 2021, yet still gave me a quote that was wrong and later told me the insurance "unexpectedly declined" the same code. They also pre-charged me before insurance finished processing, without my consent, which broke their own policy and added confusion to the bill. This left me questioning whether they already anticipated there would be a remaining balance - otherwise, the pre-charge and refund back doesn't make any sense. When I reviewed the documents they sent me, I also found another patient's EOB in my file. Overall, this office shows a pattern of low quoting followed by higher bills, lacks transparency in billing, and fails to safeguard patient privacy. If this is their standard practice, I can only imagine how many patients may have ended up with the same experience I had. read more

Dr N. Jodhan refused to respond to 5+ of my calls - she was mileading, misrepresented my pay by over $1000, and I believe manipulating. Their staff estimated my service to be $2000+ for a tooth extraction, for which they estimated my insurance would pay half the amount, leaving my responsibility to be $1061.00. to which I paid before I left the premise. A month or two later, I received a bill for $1076.50 - the amount my insurance denied. Looking back, I realized I was naive and they manipulated the situation. I thought they would be accurate by merit that Dr. Jodhan's was a professional organization, that their estimates were accurate based on experience. It was after they put my apron for surgery was put that that said I needed to confirm. I assumed that because they were professionals, I might be obligated to pay $100-200. Also, when though the estimated included a tooth graft, they have the recommendation again - thinking back they knew it was optional all along! $1000+ is a huge amount. Knowing that the insurance company pays a substantially lesser amount than the listed price. And their estimate was way off. I called to discuss a mutually responsible settlement. After ignoring 5+ calls, Dr. Nikisha Jodhan instructed that I could pay the full amount with a payment plan. I find her actions to be irresponsive, manipulative, and misleading--which will cost me $1000+ more than I expected She offered a payment plan after I declared to publicize my experience. I am setting up the payment plan, and I plan to share my experience. I have sent her a similar email--continuing to request discussion. She has not responded. VERIFY ALL INFORMATION BEFORE SITTING ON HER CHAIR! read more

Dr. Jodhan goes above and beyond for her patients. She is commendable and professional. My first visit was exceptional and thorough. She and her assistant shared detailed information so that I could comprehend the treatment I was going to need. Dr. Jodhan explained the procedures and was empathetic about my anxiety when visiting the dentist. She is an extremely reliable and really takes time with her patients . I am glad my coworker recommended her to me. I have gone for my follow ups every 4 months so that my teeth are highly maintained. The office environment is cheerful , and access to appointments and follow-up services are flexible. Highly recommended. read more

Amazing Staff!! I can't say enough about Dr. Jodhan and her team! Super friendly, very professional and skilled at what they do. If you are looking for a stellar dentist, this is the place to go. read more

Appointment for implant consultation extremely disappointing. Dr. Jodhan displayed poor diagnostic skills and poor patient communication skills. Did not get a sense of competency or ethics in that appointment. read more

I have appointment with Dr. Jacobs to do 3 D scan for my teeth. She charged me $395 and didn't discuss the plan and never told the insurance will not going to cover it. I really disappointed. If the insurance not covering service, they should inform the patients before to run the service read more

Was told I'd need an expensive ct scan that insurance doesn't cover before they can do any work for an implant...... the two surgeons I saw in Nashville never did this.... They just want to take your money for an unnecessary test when the X-rays work just fine. It's annoying and pissed me off before I left my 6 week old baby with my husband who was working from home to make this appointment. If they have this hidden fee for a "necessary scan" you can only imagine the other added fees and upcharges they'll do for any procedure. So hard to find a good dentist and oral surgeon in this area that won't rip you off. read more

I love the care that I've been receiving as a new patient at Advanced Periodontics! All of the staff is super friendly and warm and the professionalism of Dr. Jodhan and Sayaka is stellar! If you're wanting excellent service and care, this the place to go! It's now my new home for cleanings and all things gum care related. read more

Just had my check up and cleaning after my laser gum surgery. Amazing friendly staff and the assistant Amy who cleaned my teeth was so friendly and she put me at ease right away. Everything went smoothly she was thoughtful and gentle yet very thorough. Dr Jodhan came in to check my teeth and was pleased with the results and set me up for 3 month follow up with her to treat one of my back gums that is having an issue. I have no pain or discomfort and Dr Jodhan wants to make sure the gum is as it should be. I am so satisfied with this practice their approach is thorough and professional and puts you at ease immediately. I highly recommend this practice. Let's face it no one enjoys the dentist but I can honestly say because of the excellent treatment and care I have received I no longer have fear or dread but look forward to maintaining my gums and grateful for the care . Looking forward to a long beneficial and rewarding healthy mouth. Thank you again Dr and staff. read more

So, I've never even had a cavity in my life and have never had to get any oral work done. My gums had receded and I knew I had to get gum grafting done. Dr. Jodhan was recommended to me by a friend and she sounded like she was worth the drive (I live in the south loop). She and the rest of the team made the whole experience great! From scheduling, to insurance issues, to explanation of procedure and after care, they were all wonderful. If, heaven forbid, I have more issues, I will be making the drive to Skokie. Thanks again for everything! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Jodhan every 6 months for a check-up and cleaning for several years, since my former periodontist retired. Along with routine dental care from my dentist, I've had periodontal care for about 30 years and have had numerous grafts, etc. My experience with Dr. Jodhan has been wonderful. She puts you at ease with her friendliness; she's caring and she's a consummate professional. I know that I'm in good hands with her. My retiring periodontist recommended Dr. Jodhan and I'm glad he did. I would highly recommend her and her staff is also excellent. Sharon O' read more

I had an old root canal that went bad. I needed a bone graft and an implant. I was referred to Dr Johdan by my dentist. Dr Johdan took the time to explain the entire process (which would take place over a few months). She answered all of my questions. The office was extremely clean and state-of-the-art. The whole process went smoothly. I highly recommend her. Her office is actually within the Westfield (Old Orchard) Shopping Center! You can get your dental work done and get some shopping done right after! read more

Went in to have the second half of a tooth removed (the first half was chipped off in a hockey accident) and to get a bone graph for an eventual implant in the future. First, the receptionist was extremely nice and calmed me down as I was a little nervous about having oral surgery. She promised it would be painless and easy. Which brings me to number 2. Dr Jodhan was absolutely amazing and professional. Her assistant explained everything to me about the procedure and care afterwards. The Doctor herself was extremely quick but also precise. No pain was felt and I was in-and- out for something I thought would take longer. I was there for no longer than 45 mins. I definitely recommend seeing her for both the work she does and the friendliness of the entIre staff. read more

Dr. Jodhan took exceptional care of me. I had an emergency, and she made room for me in her busy day. She comforted me and took care of my tooth. She informs you of the procedures to understand what she is doing, and I left confident and happy with the work she performed. Her friendly staff greeted me with enthusiasm even though I may have made them behind because she squeezed me on a busy Friday. I am so grateful for the work she did. The office is new and beautifully decorated, and their COVID procedures made me feel very safe. I am very grateful to Dr. Jodhan and her staff for making me feel better during a very stressful time. read more

I have a very low threshold of pain. That's one of the major reasons why I don't like going to see the dentist. Finally, circumstances had forced me to finally go get my teeth checked out. I found Dr. Jodhan from all the health review websites, saying that she was the best periodonist in the Skokie area. I had such high expectations, but I was hesitant, since usually I always leave disappointed. I made an appointment with Ms. Marianna (sp?), the receptionist, and she is so incredibly sweet and nice. It was easy breezy. When I went in, Dr. Jodhan was warm and friendly, but she was also extremely knowledgeable, professional, as well as extremely thorough. I also like the fact that she is very sanitary-conscious and organized, and you can tell by seeing that her treatment area is clean and sterile. She was the first periodontist who gave me a full and complete comprehensive exam that was more thorough than the other periodontists I've seen in the past. She is also pretty gentle and asked if I was doing alright throughout the whole procedure. She is informative, answers all your questions, and never shames you or anything - I am glad that I found Dr. Jodhan, and I really recommend anyone in the North Shore area to check her out. I look forward to being Dr. Jodhan's patient for the long-term, even if I have to take frequent trips from VA to see her! +ask for Ms. Marianna (receptionist) +Dr. Jodhan - periodontist +medical/business center at Old Orchard Mall read more

I had my exam and cleaning yesterday in Dr. jodhan's office. The entire staff was exceptional in keeping the office "covid" safe. The hygienist who cleaned my teeth is excellent! She made certain each tooth was cleaned. The office is relaxing in its decor which helps for anyone who stresses before dental appointments. My experience is great. I would recommend this office. read more

Great staff and service!!! I absolutely love the care I received in doctor Jodhan's office!!!!! From the front desk , to Dr Jodhan's assistant , to finally Dr Jodhan...everyone is extremely professional, friendly and warm. I had to have my tooth extracted and get a bone graft. Dr Jodhan explains the whole procedure and while working on the extraction she is so patient and checks on you the entire time. As someone who's in dental profession I definitely recognize a person who really loves their job and takes patients troubles to heart...Dr Jodhan is definitely that kind of a doctor!!!! The whole process went seamlessly. I had no pain or swelling which is amazing. I would highly recommend Dr Jodhan! Wonderful office and staff!!! Thank you for everything! read more

High expectations, poor results. From insurance issues, to poor paper work along with a failed surgery, (of which I was still liable for paying for). Lack of professionalism all around. It should be noted that this institution bribes their clientele for 5 star ratings. After your consolation your are given a a card stating you'll receive a gift for your 5 star yelp review. I'd say stay away! read more

Great staff and service. I have been seeing Dr.Jodhan for the last 5 years and she has provided excellent advice and ongoing care.

Extremely professional and very conscious of the welfare of her patients.

I just got done with my tooth extraction from Dr. Jodhan and it seemed to go flawlessly! She was very sensitive to any pain I might have had, she constantly checked on me to see how I was doing. This very inconvenient and dreaded appointment was made much better by Dr. Jodhan, thanks to her efficient performance! read more

Dr Jodhan and her team are extremely professional while at the same time providing a warm friendly atmosphere. She is an excellent periodontist doing a wonderful and flawless job. There is a full treatment plan and schedule so you know what is in store. Let's not forget that these sorts of procedures are not a day at the spa. So if you need periodontal work such as implants and bone grafts, you are in very good hands with Dr Jodhan and her team She is highly recommended read more

Dr. Johdan is a lovely person and professional. She is articulate and makes it part of her practice to explain the process, expectations, possible results, pros and cons of the procedure. She is quick to smile and her warmth helped me feel comfortable before my surgery and afterwards. The surgery was successful. Her staff is delightful as well. I will recommend her to anyone that asks or is in need of her services. read more

I was searching for a periodontist to do gum grafting procedure for four of my teeth. My regular dentist has recommended me to go to a periodontist in Evanston. He seems to be the doctor to go in Evaston. After consulting with him, I realized that not only he is out of my insurance network (which means I will most likely need to pay more), he also requires me to get a custom made guard for my gum grafting procedure. The guard will not be covered by insurance and has to be out of pocket. I decided to seek a second opinion, so I came to Dr. Jodhan after finding her in my Metlife dental insurance provider list with exceptional yelp review. So I had my consultation with her at the beginning of January. Truthfully, I was really hesitant to move forward with the procedure since I heard several bad experience with gum grafting in general. Also I was told by the previous periodontist that the procedure will require me to avoid exercise for 2 weeks and be on limited diet for 2 weeks. It really put a negative feel in my heart to get this procedure done. Thanks for my upcoming expiring medical spending account, I move fast to make appointment with the office in March and was able to schedule quickly within 10 days. I was nervous through the procedure (even though I grew up seeing dentist all my life with tons of procedure done in my life on my teeth). The procedure was about an hour and half (3 gum grafting) without any problems. To my amazement, the after surgery was much easier and not much pain. I was given three Motrin before the procedure but didn't need any pain medication after at all through my recovery. I just went in for my suture removal yesterday. It looks like my gum is doing well. I will need to go back 2 weeks later for suture removal since one part of the gum is still "working" on itself. A speical note, the instruction and care I was given was great. Dr. Jodhan was quick to reply for my question through text the night of my procedure when I wasn't sure what to do with rinsing. I was able to exercise a few days after. I realized that my insurance only approved 2 of the three gums (since two were next to each other). Dr. Jodhan went ahead and did all three teeth even though she knows she is not paid for working on that extra part. I am so blown away with her service. When I told my doctor friend why my procedure didn't require any pain medication, she simply said that I must have a great surgeon. I totally agree! I would totally recommend Dr. Jodhan for gum grafting procedure. The staffs were helpful for helping me with inisurance and understand my financial responsibility before the procedure. I have such an exceptional experience. Thank you, Yelpers for sharing your experience so I can have a great experience for my first gum grafting! read more

Dr. Jodhan and her staff exceed expectations. I have been going for the last couple of years. Efficient, professional and friendly. I look forward to continuing my care with Dr. Jodhan. read more

Dr Jodhan takes the time to explain procedures and gives a complete treatment plan before starting any procedure. She is professional, caring, and makes a not so pleasant experience very tolerable. I had dental surgery done and she called the following day to see how I was progressing. I am healing quickly without discomfort. She works well with her staff who are sensitive to patient comfort and needs. I highly recommend Dr. Jodhan. read more

Dr Jodhan makes this process so easy. She is a pleasure to work with. The assistants and office personnel are a pleasure to work with.

I have had the pleasure of being a patient of Dr Jodhan for more than a year. I am having implants and understand the serious nature of the operation. However, Dr Jodhan's very deft touch has completely won me over. I had bone graft and whatever else it took to put the anchor in place. Initially, I felt the swab with the topical anesthetic and afterward no discomfort or pain whatsoever. I had no bleeding, no pain and very slight swelling. She and her staff get FIVE STARS from me read more

I went to Dr Jodhan for an oral implant. She made the entire process very easy for me. After each surgery, which there were three, she called me personally afterwards to check up. During the surgery she played music and I felt very relaxed. She is also located in the old orchard mall, so my wife was able to do some shopping while I was getting work done. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get a similar surgery done. read more

Most visited place this summer My son was seen by the practice in June 2016. Dr. Jodhan and her staff were professional, caring and sensitive to our needs. His recovery was excellent and he's healed very well. I highly recommend her practice. There's a balance of professionalism and care. read more

Dr. Jodhan is a periodontist of the highest caliber. She is personable and pleasant, and she manages to be honest, which is crucial but tricky in her line of work, without being abrasive or off-putting. If you need a periodontist, you're not going to find a better one. You might find one that's as good, but not better. read more

We were patients of Dr. Nikisha Jodhan from 2005 to 2007 at the prestigious NYU College of Dentistry, Department of Periodontics, post graduate clinic.. With Dr. J, we experienced some of the best dental care we've ever received. She performed 9 implants, 3 extractions, sinus lift and bone grafts on Mel as well as prophylactic deep cleaning. I received bone graft, and an implant as well. As a result of her great work, we've been told we smile a lot more these days. Dr J displayed a confidence and caring well beyond what one would expect of a graduate student in such a hectic environment. While other doctors performed procedures adequately, Dr. Jodhan went one step beyond: She evaluated all the available options for treatment and worked with us to determine the best possible outcome both short term and long term. As a doctor, she is not only professional and very skilled (with a very gentle touch), but always caring as well. She is mindful that periodontics can be painful and very time consuming so she planned her procedures to minimize both pain and time spent in the chair. We have recommended her to family and friends in the Chicago area telling them she's worth the trip from Forest Hills, NY to Skokie, IL Sherry Rogers and Mel Moskowitz Forest Hills, NY read more

I went to Dr. Jodhan for an extraction and bone graft. Her attentiveness was outstanding and she was concerned for my comfort throughout the procedure. I appreciated her ability to convey information regarding what to expect during the process and after completion. The results have been great so far, the area has healed nicely and I shall have follow-up work done. I hope everyone who has a dental issue requiring expertise gets to work with a specialist as high caliber as she is. read more

I was told several years ago that my missing front tooth could not be replaced with an implant, too small, too risky. My dentist referred me to Dr. Johdan after explaining my past frustrations. She was extremely pleasant, skilled and straightforward about how she would resolve my specific issue. After a skilled bone graft, precise implant placement i now have a beautiful incisor. The entire procedure was virtually painless and I couldn't be happier with the results. read more

Dr. Johdan did a deep dental clean before I had my braces installed, and she has done follow-up work after I had them removed. As a result, my gums are in a lot better shape before, during and after braces. read more

Dr. Johdan is an excellent implant dentist!!! She is thorough- provides a great explanation of each step that will be taken to complete the work. Dr. Johdan has wonderful patient contact. read more

My gums have been receding for years and the area around two teeth was especially of concern. My dentist referred me to Dr. Jodhan to talk about what could be done to improve the situation. She explained the corrective procedure in detail with a slide show. I was immediately impressed with her and felt very comfortable in her care. I don't love work being done in my mouth, but it was pretty much pain free from start to finish. We did the graft two weeks ago today and I'm very happy with the results. A few more of my gums will need repair in the future, and I intend to go back to her to make my mouth as healthy as can be! read more

Absolutely the best oral surgeon ever! I know what I am talking about! I had a sinus lift, bone grafts and 3 implants done with dr Johdan. Very professional and gentle doctor, also warm and nice person. Even these Novocain shots ( a lot of them in my case;) were more than ok to stand. Belive me, i i had a thousand of that in my life!!!!!! After those procedures Dr Johdan is a dentist I trust;). I visited many dental surgeon in Chicagoland area- unfortunately I am not this kind of lucky person with healthy teeth - no matter what. That's why I would like to recommend dr Nikishia to everyone who needs dental procedure and probably is freaked out... She is amazing;)))) My experience with dr Johdan is A+! Thank you! read more
