Alla Aver DDS

Hands down the best experience I have ever had with a dentist. Dr. Aver and staff were patient and gentle with me. I have an extreme fear of dentist as many people do. A bad experience years ago with another dentist has led me to mistrust all dentist. But recent pain has caused me to search again for a confident & competent Dr. Luckily a coworker told me about Dr. Aver. I am so grateful. From the moment I walked into the clean and welcoming waiting room, to the friendly and kind staff at the front desk. My side chair experience was even better. She took her time answering questions and hearing my concerns. Her soft hands & calming demeanor helped ease my fears. Her natural holistic methods are top notch. I highly recommend Dr. Aver and staff without any hesitation, I will be telling all my family and friends :) Thank you!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Aver for years and have never had a better dentist than her (and I’ve seen a few). I’ve converted the rest of my family to see Dr. Aver as well. She’s very knowledgable, really invests in her own education (she is also a nutritional consultant and homeopath), very kind and warm. Her staff is incredible — front desk, hygienists (Aga and Aida), and assistants. I found her when I needed to have my amalgams removed, safely, and never wanted to go back to regular dentist again. When doing oral care Dr. Aver takes into account the whole body, not just what happens in the mouth. She uses safe, non-​toxic materials and considers how these materials are compatible with your body. The hygienists taught me so much about taking care about my teeth and gums — regular dentist office have never done anything close to that. I’m so grateful to Dr. Aver and her staff. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.

Dr. Avers and her staff are wonderfully supportive and knowledgeable. I feel I am getting the best care possible when I’m in the office. I used to think there was nothing worse than going to the dentist. That it was insane to pay someone to torture you, but not any more. Dr. Avers and her staff are super gentle, patient, and kind. It has been an almost stress-​free experience from the beginning (it is still the dentist after all.) And I’m looking forward to seeing the new office on my next visit.

Dr. Aver is great. It took me a long time to find someone in the Chicago area that I wanted to go to and love that she takes a holistic approach. I’ve had an increasing amount of problems with my teeth, and although I brush and floss, no one could give me any idea of what was actually going on until Dr. Aver.
She explains everything to the point where I don’t even have to ask questions (a first for me at the dentist) and never makes me feel stupid or bad about my teeth, and is gentle. Although going to the dentist may never be my favorite activity, she makes it as painless of an experience as possible. The front desk staff is AMAZING as well.

I was very excited to find an actual natural dentist on the North Shore
I scheduled an appointment for two weeks out to meet with the doctor and go over my x-​rays and fillings that I needed redone
I had seen Dr. Aver in natural awakenings magazine and a couple other places
After scheduling the appointment, the front desk staff had asked me for my dental insurance information. I had explained that I never received a dental insurance card and I was told tocontact my HR department. I explained that the dental insurance was purchased through the exchange since we are self-​employed. I gave them the details but they insisted on asking me for a group number and member IDwhich I did not have. After two or three conversations with the front desk staff about the same thing I decided to cancel my appointment. Of course then I was told that I have to pay a $ 50 fee to cancel my appointment
I asked to talk to the doctor about what my experience has been and why am canceling my appointment
I was told that the doctor doesn’t have a voicemail and then I said the doctor has to have a voicemail and they tried to explain to me how it’s not working because Comcast is down.
As a service provider I couldn’t understand how our front desk staff could be so rude and how they could make it so difficult to come in to see a dentist for work that you need done
I have dental insurance but I have also recently spent thousands on dental work so I’m quite aware of the costs
I feel like I was treated very poorly

Dr. Aver is a very gentle and comforting dentist. She works with you on payments and understands how expensive this stuff can get. She will not push you to do things you either don’t want to or can’t afford to do. She will also never make you feel bad for the condition of your teeth. Her approach to dentistry is exactly what I need and want and I couldn’t be happier. It’s too bad the negative reviewers didn’t take the time to explain why they rated this office one star. Too bad for them, more availability for me!

An excellent group of professionals. state of the are dentistry and Dr Alvers is the best.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Aver for a few years now and she always does a good job, always painless. Its always nice tobbe there even thought it’s a dentisnt office, and her prices are great as a bonus.

Dr. Avers is patient, kind and wonderful to visit! She has been so caring towards my son and I. Her rates are affordable, she practices natural dentistry and she is very gentle.

Hands down the best dentist I’ve ever been too. I no longer live in Illinois but continue to go to her whenever I’m in town. I found Dr. Aver in a listing for natural dentists and have come to love and appreciate her knowledge, philosophy and expertise. I learn so much every time I visit. Her office is inviting, has modern/​state of the art equipment, and her staff is wonderful. Dr. Aver herself has a great disposition and beside manner. Simply the best!
