Chicago MeFites: please tell me of your glorious dentists! Or warn me off of the terrible ones. I need a dentist for cleaning, probably at least one filling, and no doubt a referral to an oral surgeon (impacted wisdom teeth.) North side or Loop vastly preferred, as I have no car. [more inside]

Does anyone know of any Chicago dentists that are part of the Delta Dental network and accept Care Credit? I have not been to the dentist in a long time. My teeth have been hurting for a week and I know I need to see a dentist (probably have an abcessed tooth). I have medical insurance but no dental. My fiancee an I are in the process of buying a condo; this couldn't have come at a worse time (still, my fault, i know). [more inside]

I need a root canal in Chicago; I've already burned through our dental insurance for the year, and our dentist wants $1200 to perform one. Is there a better option? I don't know if I can hold out until our insurance resets in January. [more inside]

Please recommend a dentist in Chicago for a standard annual cleaning and general dental check-up. Prefer office location in Loop, Gold Coast, or River North. Thank you!
