Oral Surgery Associates

Just off Western Avenue, Oral Surgery Associates handles the kind of procedures that most dentists refer out—wisdom teeth extractions, dental implants, corrective jaw surgery. The practice sits at 2440 W Peterson Ave in Chicago’s Lincolnwood neighborhood, where the sidewalks are wide and the street parking is, well, Chicago-standard. This isn’t the place for routine cleanings; it’s where you end up when the X-rays reveal something more involved than a filling.

Oral surgeons occupy a specific niche—somewhere between dentist and medical specialist—and this office covers the expected ground: bone grafting, impacted canines, facial trauma reconstruction. There’s no fluff in the description; the work here is precise, clinical, and often the last step before moving on to orthodontics or prosthetics. Need to confirm an appointment or ask about pre-op instructions? The number to call is (773) 761-7171.

The building itself is unassuming, typical of the area’s mid-century commercial stretch. For anyone mapping out the route, the directions place it just north of the Peterson/Pulaski intersection—easy to spot if you’re coming from the Edens. And honestly, if you’re searching for an oral surgeon, you’re probably not doing it for fun; here’s hoping the visit is quicker than expected.
