Cleanings, exams, fillings, and everyday dental care that help you keep your natural teeth healthy for years to come.
A small cavity rarely hurts at first, which is exactly why so many people miss it until it needs bigger treatment. Routine checkups, cleanings, and timely repairs keep everyday problems small and your natural teeth strong. If it has been a while since your last visit, you are far from alone, and today is a good day to start again.
Dental Group of Evergreen Park provides the full range of general dental care on South Pulaski Road. As your dentist in Evergreen Park, our team handles everything from routine cleanings to root canals in one office, so your care stays in familiar hands. We focus on prevention, clear explanations, and appointments that start on time.
A general dentist is your main source of dental care. We check for decay, gum disease, and other changes in your mouth, clean away plaque and tartar, and repair teeth that are worn, cracked, or damaged. When something needs attention, we explain your options in plain language and help you choose a plan that fits your health and goals.
Keeping your own teeth is the goal. According to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, adults ages 20 to 64 keep an average of about 25.5 of their permanent teeth, out of a full set of 32. Regular checkups give us the chance to find problems early, when treatment is often simpler and more comfortable.
Dr. Klee earned his dental degree from the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine and completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at A.T. Still University. He focuses on prevention, patient education, and calm, unhurried visits.
Dr. Kanneganti earned her biology degree and her dental degree from the University of Detroit Mercy. She brings a compassionate, patient-first approach to every visit and enjoys building lasting relationships with Evergreen Park families.
Our general dentistry services cover the care most people need throughout their lives. Common treatments include the following.
If you lose several teeth, we can discuss replacement options such as dentures in Evergreen Park. Parents can also bring the whole household to one office through our family dentistry in Evergreen Park.
Here is what a typical checkup looks like, so you know what to expect before you arrive.
We take digital X-rays as needed, which involve lower radiation than older film X-rays. Then your dentist checks each tooth, your gums, and your bite, and screens for signs of oral cancer.
Our team removes plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline, then polishes your teeth. We also share brushing and flossing tips based on what we see in your mouth.
If we find anything that needs attention, we show you on screen with an intraoral camera and explain your options. In many cases, treatment can begin at a later visit that fits your schedule.
Good home care makes every checkup easier. Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth daily, and limit sugary snacks and drinks. If you grind your teeth at night, a custom nightguard may help protect your enamel from wear and small cracks.
Bleeding gums, sensitivity, or a tooth that aches when you bite are signs to call us sooner rather than later. Gum problems can progress quietly, and our periodontal care in Evergreen Park can help bring inflammation under control. Many patients come in every six months, and we may suggest a different schedule based on your needs.
Our team reviews your dental benefits with you before treatment and explains your costs up front, so there are no surprises at checkout. For larger treatment such as a root canal or an onlay, we offer payment plans and other dental financing options that can spread costs over time.
If you do not have insurance, our $99 new-patient visit includes an initial cleaning, a comprehensive exam, and a full set of digital X-rays. It gives you a clear picture of your oral health before any treatment decisions. You can review our new patient information ahead of time to see what to bring.
Dr. Christopher Klee and Dr. Manasa Kanneganti lead general care at our office. Dr. Klee emphasizes prevention and patient education, and he is empathetic toward people who feel anxious about dental work. Dr. Kanneganti takes a compassionate, patient-first approach and focuses on building lasting relationships with the patients she sees.
We perform most treatment in our own office, so you do not have to bounce between locations for routine repairs. Evening hours Monday through Thursday and second-Saturday appointments make it easier to fit care around work and school. Dental microscopes and electric handpieces help our doctors work precisely, and they are often quieter than the drills many people remember.
Many patients come in for a checkup and cleaning every six months. We may suggest a different schedule based on your gum health and history of cavities.
