Thane L Ostroth, DDS

I live in Chicago and I realize nothing compares to my hometown dentist. He’s truly the best dentist I’ve ever had. I have bonding on my eye teeth and other dentists compliment the work. I say «other dentists» because I’m constantly trying to find someone who compares to Dr. Ostroth. Also, he’s really funny! If there was a «tooth whisperer», it’d be this guy.

Great orthodontist. I’ve been going to Dr. Ostroth my entire life. Even when I moved to Virginia, I never changed dentists and would coordinate a bi-​annual cleaning and checkup with travel back to Michigan for work or to see my family.
I’ve had braces, a retainer, a night guard, an emergency visit after chipping a front tooth, and cavities filled here. Everything has been great — would highly recommend. I actually look forward to my trips here, their office is very clean and modern and they embrace technology (my last visit I found out that 1 – 2 days before your appointment they send you a text confirmation!).

Great dentist but pricey for cash patients… i love the hygenist there. I unfortunately went to Ostroth for braces for my daughter and myself… big mistake! I was not happy with the results and he would not address my complaints, telling me the teeth are perfect when in fact they are still misaligned. My daughters teeth were not spaced for her future adult teeth as he said they would be, I am now having to pay for her 2^nd round of braces as the adult teeth are crowded and over-​lapping.

Dr. Ostroth has been my dentist for years. I would not trust my dental health to anyone else but him and his wonderful hygenist — Deb. Dr. Ostroth is gentle, caring and honest. While another dentist pushed me to do a root canal and crown, Dr. Ostroth was honest and was able to replace my filling vs making me endure an expensive and unnecessary procedure. He is the best!

Most people don’t enjoy their trip to the dentist office. And you don’t want to end up being the poor sap who has the sociopathic Corbin Bernsen drilling away in your mouth.
Fortunately, I’ve discovered Dr. Thane Ostroth. He has a well established practice with hygienists and staff that have been with him for a long time. Cleanings are as pleasant of an experience as one could hope for thanks to their expertise.
But what seperates him from other dentists is the following:
The coolest thing happened when I had two cavities filled by Dr. Ostroth — I was given a Sony Walkmen to drown out the noise of the hellish drilling! Plus, he’s very accommodating when it comes to the anesthetic!
I’ve also had some pretty cool conversations with Dr. Ostroth about staying green when it comes to your teeth. He doesn’t use mercury in his fillings, he even wrote a letter to the American Dental Association protesting this years ago. We also both question the need for fluoride in our toothpaste and water supply!
Dr. Ostroth is a smart, passionate and stress-​free dentist! Highly recommended!
