Personalized Family Care from Lake Forest Smiles
Our family-oriented approach includes oral hygiene education for children, making each visit a positive experience. Follow the American Dental Association’s recommendation and schedule checkups and dental cleanings every six months for optimal oral health.

With flexible payment options and a commitment to creating confident, pain-free, and happy smiles, Lake Forest Smiles stands as the premier choice for family dentistry in the North Shore area.
Dental Cleanings
The best defense is a good offense, which is why regular checkups and cleanings are vital to your family’s oral health and hygiene. Our dental cleanings, performed by experienced and courteous dental hygienists, are preventive measures that remove tartar, plaque, and surface stains. This not only freshens breath, it also reduces the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
Digital Oral Wellness Scan
Using state-of-the-art technology like our iTero Digital Scanner, we offer proactive care for your oral health and overall well-being. This device helps us personalize your family’s dental care by creating 3D models, which are compared over time to track any changes in oral health like shifting teeth or other less obvious dental issues.
Oral Cancer
Lake Forest Smiles provide dental regular checkups that go beyond just preventing cavities and ensuring fresh breath. Our six-month checkups include oral cancer screening, providing early detection using advanced technology like VELscope. Our dentists are dedicated to comprehensive oral care for every member of your family.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride, a natural mineral, offers an additional layer of defense against decay, strengthens enamel, and is particularly beneficial for those at higher risk. Preventing tooth decay is important, especially for children. According to the CDC, 4 out of 5 children experience tooth decay by age 17. Our family dentists provide gentle and effective fluoride treatments during checkups every six months.
MI Paste
Safe for all ages, including pregnant or nursing mothers, MI Paste serves as an additional defense against tooth decay, relieving sensitivity, and supporting overall oral health during crucial developmental stages. This topical cream is non-toxic and sugar free. Apply at home after brushing for a little extra protection for your family’s smiles.
Sealants
When it is too late to prevent tooth decay, sealants are a valuable defense. Our non-toxic plastic sealants, applied in minutes after a thorough cleaning, act as a protective barrier against cavity-causing bacteria. While sealants last 3–5 years, promoting good oral hygiene habits ensures prolonged effectiveness. Trust us to safeguard your child’s smile with routine checkups at our Lake Forest family dental office.
Sports Guards
Athletes of all ages need to protect their teeth—whether your child is actively involved in after-school sports or you’re an adult enjoying recreational competition, our personalized sports guards provide superior protection against dental injuries. With a tailored fit for comfort and effectiveness, our guards shield teeth from chipping, breaking, or being knocked out.
