Today's Dental Care

General dentistry keeps smiles functional and pain-free. Today's Dental Care covers the usual ground—cleanings, exams, fillings, crowns, extractions—and adds a few extras. Bring along kids for pediatric checkups, then pop back for teeth-whitening sessions when the time is right.

Its storefront sits at 2006 Mall St, Collinsville, IL 62234, inside a strip-mall row that backs up to Highway 159 retail traffic. On-street meters fill up fast, but the back lot usually has room on weekday mornings before the lunch rush.

Pause at the traffic signal on Veterans Memorial Parkway, then swing east through the light at Mulberry Lane—(618) 345-8333 rings once and the voicemail picks up, so leave a quick note for a callback. You get the usual follow-up within a business day unless you’re scheduling X-rays on the same day.

Blur your sky-high Collinsville Mall billboard in the rearview and look for the blue awning over stall 7; that’s your cue to open the maps listing for hands-free parking. Two left turns after the liquor mart drop you right into the dead-center dental lane of the plaza. The storefronts feel lived-in, sandwich shops and salons giving way to evening glow on the sign fronts.
