Nevin Mathai

Dentistry doesn’t have to be complicated. Nevin Mathai keeps it simple with general and family care in Fairview Heights, covering everything from routine cleanings to fillings. The practice handles the basics—exams, X-rays, extractions—without the frills. No specialty gimmicks, just the core work of keeping teeth in decent shape.

Finding the office is easy enough. It sits at 6407 N Illinois St, a stretch of road that’s more functional than flashy, flanked by the kind of strip-mall pragmatism you’d expect in a suburb like this. The area doesn’t pretend to be charming; it’s a place where people run errands, grab a quick bite, and—when necessary—get a cavity filled. Parking is what it is.

Dental visits aren’t anyone’s idea of a good time, but they’re a fact of life. This isn’t the spot for cosmetic overhauls or Invisalign consultations. It’s for the unglamorous stuff: root canals, crowns, the occasional wisdom tooth removal. If you’ve got a toothache or an overdue cleaning, the solution is likely here. Questions about coverage or procedures? The phone’s the quickest way to sort it out: (618) 310-0263.

The map places it just north of the highway, where Fairview Heights blurs into the kind of commercial sprawl that defines so much of the Metro East. No scenic views, no historic landmarks—just a dentist’s office in a neighborhood that’s all about utility. For directions (or to double-check you’re heading to the right Illinois St), the map listing cuts through the guesswork. The building’s beige. You’ll recognize it.
