Healthy Smiles, Inc., a family and cosmetic dental practice in Chicago's Roscoe Village and Lakeview neighborhoods, has been recognized for its 25 years of service and commitment to patient care. The practice, led by Dr. Rita E. Salvi-Platt, has earned a 2016 Chicago Magazine Top Doctor honor and maintains a 4.9-star average across 108 patient reviews, reflecting its dedication to high-quality dental care.
Dr. Salvi-Platt's approach to dentistry is centered on listening to each patient's needs rather than pushing sales. This commitment is reflected in the use of the highest-quality, most durable materials available, ensuring that each patient receives the best possible treatment.
Healthy Smiles, Inc. offers a full spectrum of sedation options to accommodate patients with dental anxiety. Nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation are available, allowing the practice to tailor the level of sedation to each patient's comfort and the complexity of the procedure. This approach ensures that patients can receive the care they need without the fear or discomfort that often accompanies dental visits.
The practice is equipped with cutting-edge technology, including in-house 3D scanning, which enables the delivery of finished crowns in as little as three days. This technology is used in conjunction with a wide range of cosmetic and restorative services, including teeth whitening with both Zoom and Opalescence systems, porcelain veneers, bonding, Invisalign, and crowns and bridges. For those requiring more extensive treatment, the practice offers dental implant restoration, root canals, dentures, wisdom teeth removal, and treatment for TMJ and sleep apnea.
Healthy Smiles, Inc. is committed to preventive care, providing routine cleanings, sealants, natural-looking composite fillings, and X-rays to track the development of permanent and wisdom teeth. The practice serves patients from age 2 through the senior years, with a diverse patient base that includes English, Spanish, and Italian speakers. The office is wheelchair accessible and offers convenient hours, including Monday through Saturday appointments, with walk-ins welcome and same-day and emergency visits available.
Dr. Salvi-Platt's commitment to the community extends beyond the treatment chair. For over 25 years, the practice has supported local schools, food pantries, and churches, and Dr. Salvi-Platt has personally backed organizations such as the Neighborhood Boys and Girls Club, St. Andrews and St. Benedicts Parishes, and Sacred Heart and Blaine Schools. This community involvement mirrors the practice's clinical philosophy of care that looks after the whole community, not just the patients already in its chairs.
Healthy Smiles, Inc. is open on Monday from 9 AM to 7 PM, Tuesday from 9 AM to 6 PM, Wednesday from 9 AM to 5 PM, Thursday from 9 AM to 3 PM, and Friday from 8 AM to 1 PM. The office is closed on Saturdays and Sundays, but same-day and emergency visits are available. The office welcomes patients from Roscoe Village, Lakeview, Lincolnwood, and Evanston, and accepts most major PPO plans, including Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Guardian, Humana, BlueCross BlueShield, and Medicare Advantage.
