Dr. Anjum Z. Khan, DDS

Maywood’s Dr. Anjum Z. Khan, DDS sits a block south of Roosevelt Road, rooms tucked inside the brick medical plaza at 2160 S 1st Ave #1814. The storefront matches others on the strip, easy to overlook until the sign catches your eye. General dentistry anchors the practice, with cleanings, x-rays, and fillings handled in the back rooms on the upper floor. Oral hygiene coaching and pediatric exams are part of the weekly rhythm here, available without extra sales pitches.

Restorative work is scheduled in the same suite, which simplifies follow-ups after a crown prep or root canal. Bleaching trays and night guards share shelf space with fluoride gels and desensitizing agents tucked behind the front desk. Dentures and partials arrive in sturdy boxes, dropped off by lab couriers mid-morning most Wednesdays. If you miss an appointment reminder, call the practice to see if last-minute slots opened up.

A one-page medical history form waits under the clipboard at arrival, updated yearly or whenever medications change. Sealants and space maintainers occupy a separate drawer, aimed at younger patients whose molars have just settled in. Ask the front desk whether your insurance covers bonding for small chips, since benefits vary by carrier and plan year. Dentists here don’t push beyond what the policy lists.

The easiest route is to enter through the south parking lot and take the elevator labeled “1800’s.” If the doors feel heavy, press the call button twice. From the platform above, turn left and look for suite 1814. Directions to the exact bay are at the map. (708) 216-9000 connects to the front desk during business hours.
