Prof. Tolga Tozum

Periodontists specializing in implants have a way of turning a clinical visit into something closer to precision engineering. Prof. Tolga Tozum operates from DENTISTRY ROOM 469G at 801 S Paulina St, a stretch of the Near West Side where the hum of the medical district feels like the neighborhood’s default background track. Bone grafting, sinus lifts, and full-arch restorations are the kind of procedures that sound intimidating until you realize they’re just the local language for rebuilding what time or trauma has worn down. The building itself is a familiar landmark for anyone who’s ever circled the UIC campus, its address a quiet marker between the university’s research towers and the older walk-up apartments that line the side streets. If the thought of titanium posts and osseointegration has you reaching for a second opinion, the office can be found on the fourth floor—no need to guess which door. A map is here: directions, though the route is straightforward once you’re on Paulina. For appointments or questions, call (312) 996-1264—the same number that’s been routing patients through the system for years, no frills, just the basics.
