I saw Dmitri Sokol for a consultation. During that visit, he took photographs with his camera and…read moreshowed me images he claimed were of my teeth. The images showed black lines on top of the teeth, a food pocket along the gumline, and a leaking silver filling on one tooth. I was immediately alarmed because I spend a significant amount of time and energy on my dental hygiene. These images did not match what I expected to see given how carefully I care for my teeth. Based on these images, he told me that the leaking silver filling indicated a cavity underneath and that I could lose my tooth if I did not have it replaced. I agreed to have the silver filling on my tooth replaced. Even though he had an x-ray, once he began drilling, he told me he had discovered a "crack" in the tooth. He then proceeded to perform a partial crown (onlay) instead of replacing the filling--which is what I agreed to. I walked in expecting a simple filling replacement. I walked out with a $2,138 partial crown that I never consented to. The black lines and food pocket he had shown me during the first visit were never mentioned again. Instead, he recommended that I get two crowns on two other teeth. I requested copies of the specific images he showed me during that first visit--the leaking silver filling, the black lines on top of the teeth, and the food pocket along the gumline. His office sent me other photos, but not those. When I asked again, they stopped responding. Given that they refused to provide these images, I have no way of knowing if the silver filling was actually leaking. I believe it was not. If it had been, they would have sent me the picture. I then saw another dentist for a second opinion. That dentist confirmed there are no black lines on my teeth. There is no food pocket. Based on the x-ray, there was no evidence indicating that the silver filling had leaked. Regarding the alleged crack discovered during drilling, the second dentist told me this was highly unlikely given that Dmitri Sokol had an x-ray of the tooth before starting the procedure. A crack large enough to require changing the procedure from a simple filling replacement to a partial crown should have been detectable with proper diagnostic tools. The two crowns he recommended were also not needed. The images Dmitri Sokol showed me were not of my teeth. They were used to create fear and urgency to justify work that was not needed. I am sharing this to warn others: get a second opinion before agreeing to any procedure recommended by this office.

As an adult working with the public on a daily basis, I did not want to have a metal mouth. I did…read moresome online research , as I knew I needed braces, but wanted to see if there were other options out there and came across lingual braces ( behind your teeth - incognito). Dr. Neil was the only ortho in my local area that performs this treatment from what I could find online. I went in for a free consultation in January and was impressed on how the treatment was explained to me. I was getting married at the end of the year and wanted to correct my mouth ASAP! I had a severe cross bite and over jet alignment. My braces took about a month to come in ( custom made overseas) and my application process was as smooth as can be. Dr. Neil's support staff at the Lincolnshire location is superb. All are so helpful and the front desk support goes above and beyond and make you really feel comfortable . I still am going through treatment but had my wedding in September and my mouth has transformed tremendously. I get so many compliments and people usually don't even know I have braces on until I tell them and they are fascinated. Unlike other reviews, I have never had to wait long to be seen for my appointments and I go in every 3-4 weeks for almost a year now. My mouth should be fully corrected soon which is record time. I was told by another ortho a few years ago when I was weighing out my options , that I would have braces on for 3-4years! ( one of the reasons I did not pursue at the time). Dr. Neil tells you how it is and if you follow his instructions, you will get the results discussed from the beginning. I am very happy thus far and know it will continue to the end. It also turns out that several of my friends have gone to Dr. Neil at some point in their lives to have ortho work done and all are happy! Thank you for fixing an insecurity I have had for a long time. I will be forever grateful! I can't wait for the finished product!

I arrived promptly 5 minutes prior to my appointment. I was seated in the waiting room for the next 30 minutes watching new patients walk in, be seated, and helped prior still to myself. After that 30 minutes, I approach the counter to inquire the status to my appointment. They clerk looking flustered and shocked seemingly NOW remembers that I am there to been seen and have been for 30 minutes. They run to the back and take another 5 minutes. At this point I have decided to leave. Since I don't appear to be of any value or importance to their office. It is Very clear that a bias is held towards those with children, or a seemingly wealthy appearance and they will treat you differently based on this factor. Now after waiting 3 weeks for the appointment, and arriving on time on my day off bright and early. I am now back where I started and needing to find an orthodontist. If you take quality service seriously, I would consider spending your hard earned money elsewhere. Somewhere where your time is treated with respect. Extremely disappointed, and unfortunately this is the First ever experience with an orthodontist office. Off putting is an understatement. If they don't care about you during your First ever visit, rest assured, they DO not care about your business as a whole. They got comfortable, complacent and negligent knowing they are in a wealthy area. Surprise, the fundamentals of excellent service matter even more when there's hundreds of alternatives. Wake up. Working individuals, this is not the office for you. Go where they respect you.

Can I give ten stars???…read more Visited Dr. Scholtz to have my newborn's tongue tie lasered. I am an experienced medical professional. I am VERY impressed with this Doctor and this office. Dr. Scholtz's office manager squeezed us in quickly because my daughter needed to start gaining weight and start nursing more effectively. The office manager also worked with me and my husband to design a payment plan that worked for us. Dr. Scholtz spent a lot of time explaining the procedure to my husband and I, and she stayed very calm and moved swiftly through the procedure as my baby was crying hysterically. She let me hold my baby through the procedure, which I deeply appreciated. She comforted my baby, and it was obvious that she was compassionate and cared for our family. She spent a lot of time with us after the procedure making sure my daughter's latch was improved, explaining post-OP care, and I just felt like she was enjoying talking to us about our baby. She was not in a hurry, and she told me to stay in the exam room and nurse my daughter for as long as I wanted, even though I knew that I was the last patient of the day. None of the staff were rushing me out the door; they were relaxed and friendly. I will recommend this doctor and this office to everyone who needs a pediatric dentist or a tongue tie procedure. Can't stress enough how impressed I am.

I'm extremely disappointed in this practice. My daughter received her orthodontic work here, and…read morewhile the process was initially smooth, our recent experience has been nothing short of alarming and frustrating. In September 2023, my daughter had a permanent wire retainer placed on both her top and bottom teeth. However, last Wednesday, while eating lunch, the permanent retainer came off in one piece, and she accidentally swallowed the estimated 1.5-inch wire. Panicked, I immediately called the office to ask if they had ever encountered this situation before. The woman who answered the phone said no--which was not at all reassuring--and put me on hold to consult with the doctors. Their advice was to visit the emergency department for an X-ray. What followed was a stressful and exhausting ordeal: three long nights and four days at Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago as we monitored the wire's movement to ensure it passed safely. Thankfully, the wire eventually moved to a safe zone, and we were able to take her home. What's most shocking and disappointing is that throughout this entire ordeal, no one from Forest Ortho called to check on her or follow up in any way. To add insult to injury, my 16-year-old--still determined to maintain straight teeth--went back this Wednesday to replace the retainer. However, they wanted to charge us $350 for the replacement wire! For something that was supposed to last years, having it come out in less than three is unacceptable and suggests poor placement. I've spoken with multiple people who agree that this situation was handled poorly and could have been avoided. I expected far more from Forest Ortho, both in terms of the quality of care and their responsiveness to a serious issue like this.
