Jeffrey Gaule DDS

Always the best time here at Dr. Guales.
They treat us like family here. I actually love coming here. It’s like visiting friends.

I have been going to Dr. Gaule for over three years now, originally I started going to him because of how close he is to my house, but I’ve stayed because the service is great. He’s the best dentist ever. He is so nice and helpful and makes sure that your visit is pleasant and painless. I have referred him to all of my friends and they are all still regular visitors. I would definitely recommend him for anyone in the market for a new dentist!

I have been following Dr. Gaule for many years! If you are looking for a beautiful, clean and welcoming dentist office, this is the place for you!
Dr. Gaule is a warm and gentle dentist, but very thorough and extremely professional. I am constantly sending my clients to him, and every single one of them has become a regular patient!

Great experience. Easy, pain-​free cleaning. Dr. Gaule took the time to answer my questions and was very nice. Liked that he just did what was necessary at my visit and wasn’t trying to ‘upsell.’ Does the cleanings himself and I liked that alot too. Sticks to what he knows best and isn’t pushing invisalign and botox like alot of other dentists out there. Very friendly, super clean, welcoming office. Would recommend highly to others.

Dr. Gaule is a great dentist (and I don’t like going to the dentist so it means a lot coming from me!). He’s friendly and very competent, and so are the dental hygienists. I have a very low pain tolerance and have never been uncomfortable during or after any procedure. And as a bonus, he office space is new, very clean and modern with top of the line equipment. They have a great waiting area (every magazine you can imagine) and Keurig machine, but unfortunately I’ve never been able to enjoy it because they always run on schedule, so I haven’t had to wait.

Where to start… Dr. Gaule is wonderful. I just started going to him after going to a dentist in my hometown my entire life. Dr. Gaule and staff helped me feel right at home (or as home as you can feel in a dentist office). He explained to me the procedures that he would be doing. His staff made sure my insurance covered what was being done. He did several fillings for me and my teeth look fantastic. It didn’t hurt at all! All of the equipment seems new and it might be a small office but they do not skimp on the furniture or equipment. I feel lucky to have him as my dentist!

If you want a great dentist, you’ll go to Dr. Gaule. He is truly the best! Friendly and makes you feel at ease always. Not to mention his office is very high tech even the chairs have a little massager while your teeth are being scraped: ouch!: worst! I currently do not have dental insurance and Dr. Gaule has the best deals for people who do not have dental insurance when it comes to cleanings, x rays, etc. It is truly helpful and I have had the hardest time finding another dentist who has such good deals as Dr. Gaule. He really is the friendlist and tries to accomodate you as best as he can. Love him!

My family and I have been going to Dr Gaule for years and have been incredibly happy with the level of service we have received. I feel very fortunate for his advice as i had been sufferng from neck pain for a long time and no one was able to help. Completely unrelated, Dr Gaule had identified I had been grinding my teeth and suggested a night guard. i was skeptical at first as i wasnt entitely certain i needed the mouth guard. But it was the best advice i ever received. the Night Guard immediately reduced my neck pain and my sleep has improved immensely. Dr Gaule is very knoweledgable and i recommend going to him and listening to his advice as it’s made my life much better and more pain free.

I went to Dr. Guale on an emergency basis the very first time. I called on a early Saturday morning with severe pain and Dr. Guale was able to fit me in. I was grateful that they could squeeze me in. when I first arrived the dental office, I was impressed on how nice, clean and polished the office looks as well as his equipment being up to date. I found not only Dr. Guale to be very professional, informative but also treated me with a personable approached that I have not seen in a dental office in a long time. I thought his front desk Office Manage Toni, to also be very personable, professional and informative. Dr. Guale, also explained things very well and felt he was being very genuine in stirring me away from my previous dentist that encouraged me to spend more money that was not necessary.

The staff and dr. Gall are amazing! The office is very high tech and I have always received triple A care!

I WAS a patient of Dr. Gaule ever since his first practice location on Lincoln Ave, in a professional building, that’s back in the early 1980s. (approx.28 years!)
My God given teeth, looked like mini vampire teeth, and Dr. Gaule performed cosmetic dentistry and gave me a beautiful smile.
I have four sons, and we were all patients of Dr. Gaule. I recommended him highly to relatives and friends.
His newest office on Belmont Ave. is gorgeous, from the choice of flooring, color combinations, cabinets, and message chair which is very comfortable.
I am currently a State of IL employee, as we know the state is behind on paying their bills. Even though I have dental insurance, Dr Gaule’s practice does not accept patients with State of IL insurance and although I had been a patient for near 28 years, to pay Dr. Gaule, I had to open a MedicCredit Card, so they could pay Dr. Gaule in Full, I pay monthly installments to the credit card and I had to wait to get reimbursed for ‘covered’ dental work from the State of IL, which was approximate six months.
In 2010, Dr. Gaule sold me an appliance for my teeth called «Snap-​It» — the latest technology for a bridge. Cost me out of pocket $ 1,600!!! WORST dental appliance ever. They are unnatural looking, will stain with certain foods like spaghetti or drinks — mango smoothie and give me dry mouth. I hate this appliance and I still have two more payments to make!
The last time I received a phone call from Dr. Gaule’s office was back in August 2011. The dental assistant Toni called to ask, Are you going to have your teeth cleaned or are you not going to have your teeth cleaned until Dr. Gaule calls you back regarding the Snap-​it? I replied the later «not». Dr. Gaule has NOT telephoned me to offer an alternative solution.
I hope this is helpful to you the reader. You decide.
Meanwhile, I was very lucky to find a new dentist who participates with my insurance. Everything in the office is State of the Art, the staff is very pleasant and one block away from Dr. Gaule’s office.

Want the best, go here, great care, special people, I have been going for years, and always come home with a toothbrush, floss and toothpaste,
and they have a great coffee machine, too
Great dental and a coffee machine, forget Starbucks,

Dr. Gaule and his staff are wonderful! I have struggled to find a dentist in Chicago who keeps up on new developments, is professional and has a wonderful staff to back him up. With Dr. Gaule, I found all of that and more. Based on glowing reviews, I went to Dr. Gaule last summer to have a routine cleaning/​checkup and to have some amalgam fillings replaced with composite fillings. Toni, the receptionist, was very friendly and warm. She also did a wonderful job in helping ensure that my out of pocket cost was kept to a minimum. The hygienist did a wonderful job cleaning my teeth, and the x-​rays, which can be very uncomfortable for me, were done with great ease. Dr. Gaule’s work in replacing my fillings is sheer artistry. My teeth look absolutely flawless. I cannot even imagine using another dentist. He and his staff are the best.

Most everyone has a little bit of Dental-​Phobia maybe because you are a sugar freak, bad past experience or just the pure sound of high speed drilling, however, after a million year absence from the dental office I found my jaw in pain (Suprise!) If you don’t see a dentist for a while your mind will run wild! Nevertheless, Dr. Gaule set time for my perceived emergency and was more than gracious to fit me into the day. I got a ton of personal attention from him and his staff. I found Dr. Gaule very informative, thoughtful and caring. Thanks! If you need a dentist in the area, HERE YA GO! and yes, the one cavity was painless. You will never get rid of the high speed whirl but, this place relaxes you.
BTW;The office was great, the dental chairs have a massage chair and this is a very clean, new and updated place.

I switched to Dr. Gaule ten years ago from another dentist in the area I won’t name. I felt like I did not receive any personal attention at all from this other dentist, that he was there only as a figurehead to sign off on the exam at the end. The hygenist did all the work and the fees were high.
In contrast, I receive lots of personal attenion from Dr. Gaule and his assistant Toni. My teeth are in great shape and I have never been in any kind of pain even when having fillings done. I enjoy my visits here and actually have my teeth cleaned four times a year.
He recently moved from Ashland and Belmont to his current location on Belmont near the el train stop. The office and equipment are brand new and state of the art.
In short, Dr. Gaule is the best in the biz, very caring and thoughtful and thorough.

I was just a walk-​in because I noticed this beautiful, modern dentist office from the street. I needed to find a better dentist and thought I would go in and try. I was extremely pleased with everything I saw and the treatment I got from everyone there. The massaging chairs are amazing — they take your mind off anything that’s about to happen to you! I got my teeth cleaned, I got x-​rays, I got a cavity filled with the recommendation of getting a crown on another tooth before anything went bad with it. I told the Dr. that I would have to wait until December before that happened because my car will be paid off in November. No problem. Well, another crown that I had done a long time ago had just come out in the meantime and I went to him to get it glued back in. Two days later it came off again. SO, this meant he had to rebuild the tooth a little and prep me for a brand new crown. It was inevitable. Money is tight for me because I got laid off in June 2010. I have a part-​time job but things are very different at the moment for me. I conveyed all of this from the very beginning to the doctor and the receptionist/​money natzi. She said «We will work with you». I offered a $ 100 dollar payment and was told that «$ 100 is nice, but…». My crown finally came in today and I was scheduled to get it put in today. I go to the office and the receptionist/​money natzi told me that «I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $ 400 TO GET MY CROWN TODAY». She said that «Mrs. Gaule said that I would pay $ 400 today and then $ 200 each month after». I was FURIOUS! She sprang that on me the day of! If I had known that in advance, I would have rescheduled my appointment for a later time, hoping my temporary holds. I NEVER PROMISED TO PAY THAT AND THEY SAID THAT SHE HEARD I DID. WHAT PART OF «WE’LL WORK WITH YOU» DOES THAT CONVEY? So, basically, I have a crown waiting for me as soon as I come up with $ 400. Even though they received the majority of the money from my insurance, they will not finish the work until I «WORK WITH THEIR» payment plan for me. At least it’s clear to me now. I got lured in by the really nice office and their willingness to get me in the chair, but now I feel nothing but trapped and blackmailed basically. So, at least I know that I can pay for my rent and insurance and food, hoping my temporary holds up. Maybe I’ll get my crown as a very late Christmas present to myself. Unless they decide to «WORK WITH ME» like they said before they blackmailed me.
I apologize for such a long review, but I needed to vent and tell the whole story. I feel totally blind-​sided by them and didn’t see this coming. If and when I get my crown, I will NOT be going back to them… I am someone who gives praise all the time to people and businesses when they do good. It’s what business is all about and it’s what keeps people coming back for more. I could not let this go unnoticed.

I have been going to Dr. Gaule for about 15 years and I will _​never_​switch. He is a total sweetie — kind, gentle, and totally professional. He cleans my whole family’s teeth (even my preschooler) himself. He also has one of those ‘rinse sinks’ which I really prefer to the ‘saliva sucker’ tool. His team of folks is super-​friendly, as well. I have never been ‘sold’ on anything there before (per the other review) and on the two cosmetic things I’ve had over the years he even offered me discount.

Dr. Gaule is a wonderful, caring dentist. Dental cleanings are comfortable, thorough, and affordable. 2 visits ago, was on a budget, and had to postpone X-​rays, and Dr. Gaule and his staff understood and didn’t make me feel guilty about it.
My teeth are in great shape thanks to Dr. Gaule! I’m a happy client!

I went to Dr. Gaule after my boss forced me by actually making the appointment for me. You see, I hadn’t been in a while and was too scared to go, so by not making the appointment, I remained in my comfort zone, until my boss kicked my ass out of it.
The dentist does the work himself, including the simple cleanings. Yep, you won’t get an appointment with only the dental hygienist here. Instead, your appointment with Dr. Gaule will be with Dr. Gaule. Both rooms have an Old Hollywood feel to them so you have something to stare at while getting your pearly whites spic and spanned.
UPDATE: After going to him a few times, I decided to drop my stars because I cannot help but feel he is trying to «sell» me on something every single time. My teeth have (thankfully) always been in perfect shape, no cavaties, no needed work, nothing of the sort. But each time, Dr. Gaule has tried to get me to get something unnecessary done. The first few times he kept pushing for a nightguard, which he now says I don’t need (thank god I didn’t give in!). I don’t grind my teeth, nor do I have any jaw or teeth problems so it didn’t seem valid or necessary — especially when it would cost upwards of $ 400! It seems since I am not providing him work in the cavity/​root canal sense, he is trying to obtain it in any other possible way to make a quick buck and that’s just not cool… especially when there’s no reasonable need for such.

Awwww the lovely Dr. Jeffrey Gaule. I have been going here for (gasp) over 10 years! Never have I felt so safe and comfortable in a dental chair in my life. Dr. Gaule does all the work– not an assistant. He is gentle, kind, smart and patient.
The office is right on Ashland and there is a free parking lot attached.
If you have been putting off going to the dentist for ages, go see Dr. Gaule. He won’t judge, and he won’t hurt you. He’ll just give your teeth the TLC they need.
