An incomplete smile doesn’t have to last forever. At Smile 312 Chicago's Premier Dentist, we promote greater overall health and wellness and part of this is making sure that your smile is complete. Dr. Mahler’s decades of experience make it possible for him to recommend dental bridges, dentures, or dental implants as effective solutions to tooth loss. We invite you to call and schedule a complimentary consultation so that we can begin the process of putting your smile back together by replacing missing teeth in Chicago.
Dental bridges rely on healthy abutment teeth to remain in place. Although we believe in taking a more conservative approach to dental care, these prosthetics require anchors to avoid shifting over time. Comprised of two dental crowns and free-standing replacement teeth, dental bridges can replace multiple consecutively missing teeth along an arch, delivering greater bite force and function for a healthier smile.
Serving as the predominant tooth replacement solution for decades and even centuries, full and partial dentures are a non-invasive form of treatment that can rebuild smiles, so they are visually appealing and functional. Crafted from acrylic and gum-colored materials, artificial teeth are positioned on top of the base before a metal framework attaches to natural teeth to hold partial dentures in place. Full dentures rely on natural suction with many patients opting for denture adhesives for added security.
Dr. Mahler works closely with local dental implant specialists who can place dental implants. As small biocompatible posts that fuse with bone tissues, they replace the complete root-to-crown structure so that teeth function like normal. Providing continuous stimulation to the bone, dental implants lower the risk of facial changes and bone loss over time, and they help to improve bite force and chewing power, so you can eat the foods you love without any worry.
Our patients’ satisfaction is our top priority. From routine checkups to advanced dental care, we make sure every smile leaves our office healthier and happier.
I went in for an appointment to start the process of getting Invisalign, ended up finding out about other more important issues going on in my mouth. Thanks Dr. M. for being honest and candid about the health of my teeth and gums. Health is more important than aesthetics!
Top notch, seasoned dentist who cares about his patients. Offers current methods/tech.
I walked in to see the dentist for a consultation. I thought I would be turned back due to not having an appointment. Amazingly, the doctor welcomed me, examined me in a professional and friendly way. Frankly, he took the time to check my teeth and explained in details his... read more
Dr Mahler is considerate to your concerns and will give you the best course of treatment. He does a great job with my cleaning. Great location for anyone in the Loop.
312 Smile is the best, they are definitely 5 star, they always take good care of their patients dental needs. 😊
Great expertise. A 1 in a million phenomenon. The destroyer of TMJ. Other dentists tremble at the sound of the name doctor Mahler (and I’m not talking about the weight loss doctor in Lockport) because they know they cannot compete no matter how hard they try.
Dr Mahler and his staff at Smile 312 are the best. They’re friendly, and they listen to all your concerns and they respect your time. I went to see Dr Mahler for TMJ treatment and from day one his recommendations have made a big difference on my discomfort level.... read more
Always superb.
I’ve been a happy patient of Smile 312 for 20 years. Seeing Dr. Mahler really changed the trajectory of my oral health. Charming office, personable staff, painless procedures, and efficiently ran - Very minimum wait time, if any! I’m spoiled for sure.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. The care I receive is exceptional and the interest regarding my overall health is comforting and reassuring that I am being listened to not just regarding my dental health.
