Dr. Carl E. Jurgens

Oral surgery often gets relegated to the back of people’s minds—until a wisdom tooth acts up or a dental implant becomes necessary. Dr. Carl E. Jurgens covers the spectrum of procedures that fall outside general dentistry, from extractions and bone grafting to corrective jaw surgery. The practice operates at 334 W Main St in Decatur, a stretch of downtown where professional offices share sidewalks with longstanding local businesses. Most referrals come through dentists, but self-referred patients aren’t uncommon when dealing with urgent issues like impacted teeth or facial trauma reconstruction.

Logistics here are straightforward: consultations typically follow a referral, and the office handles the coordination with your dentist if needed. For direct contact, the number is (217) 428-4683. Parking in the area follows standard downtown rules, so allow a few extra minutes if arriving by car. The map pin drops you at the entrance, which sits between a tax advisor’s office and a storefront that’s changed hands three times in the last decade.
