Dr. Michael E. Jones, DDS

Oral surgery isn’t the kind of thing you plan for, but when the need arises, having a specialist nearby simplifies the process. Dr. Michael E. Jones, DDS handles procedures that general dentists typically don’t—wisdom teeth extractions, dental implants, and corrective jaw surgeries among them. The practice operates out of a quiet corner of Crystal Lake, where the streets feel more residential than commercial.

Finding the office takes a quick turn off Route 14; it’s tucked into the Carlemont Plaza at 1500 Carlemont Dr # F. The area blends small medical suites with everyday conveniences, so parking doesn’t compete with retail crowds. Most patients come in for single-visit procedures, though follow-ups for implants or bone grafts are common.

Specialized care like this often requires a referral, but some patients book directly after a consultation. They handle everything from impacted canines to emergency extractions, and the team coordinates with local dentists for pre- and post-op care. If you’re scheduling or confirming an appointment, the number to call is (815) 356-3977.
