Savin Dental Associates

Very nice doctors. Friendly staff. I have been under their care for years and have been very satisfied with their services. They are easy to make an appointment with. The doctors are skilled and comprehensive. They spend a lot of time with you. They do not rush you. Great place.

Since moving to the burbs I’ve found my kids some great docs, but have been making the trek to the city for my own Dr appointments. Making the trip every 6 months for a cleaning isn’t a big deal, although I learned last week when you have a toothache you want your dentist to be just a few minutes away.
My tooth had been killing me for days. I’m a nighttime teeth grinder so figured that was the issue, but when advil didn’t solve the problem I got a bit nervous… especially since I was scheduled to leave on a work trip the next day and the pain was unbearable.
I did a Unilocal search for the closest dentist and discovered Savin Dental Associates. I started walking to the office and figured i“d just pop in just like any old manicure. I called on the way and explained I wasn’t a patient (yet), but would appreciate if a dentist could take a few minutes to see me. The woman who answered was a total sweetheart and asked if I could be there in a few minutes. Of course I could– i was right outside their door (literally).
Minutes later I was sitting in Dr Savin’s chair and he informed me I had cracked my molar. Ouch! And a few minutes after that he had temporarily fixed my problem and I was pain free! I booked another appointment to go back for a permanent crown in a few weeks.
Everyone including Dr Savin was so warm and helpful! I noticed that most of the staff had been there 10+ years, which is always a good sign.
I’ve had a good 11 years w/​my dentist in the city, Lincoln Park Dental Associates*, but out of convenience think it’s time to move on. Hopefully I won’t have anymore cracked teeth, but good to know there’s someone nearby you can help in case of dental emergencies.
