Dr. Nicholas Capezio, DMD

With both parents being physicians, Dr. Nick always knew that he wanted to pursue a career in the healthcare field. During his early years in college, he worked alongside an oral surgeon in Skokie, who helped build his interest in dentistry by showing how the work could blend art, science, and social skills. Today, he’s happy to say that he’s found his dream job and has never looked back! He loves being a pediatric dentist and being able to help children achieve their best oral health.

Dr. Nick graduated from Tulane University before moving on to study at Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine for his dental doctorate. During his education, he’s received various certifications and even won the International College of Dentist’s Humanitarian Award as well as the Quintessence Award for Outstanding Dental Achievement due to a project involving his help in developing a dental prevention program for children in Estelí, Nicaragua. He’s also a proud member of several professional organizations like the American Dental Association and the Illinois Society of Pediatric Dentists.

When he isn’t at the office, Dr. Nick tries to stay active in his spare time, enjoying things like bike riding, hiking, and water skiing. He also likes watching sports and follows his favorite teams, the Bulls, Bears, and Blackhawks. Due to living in Ecuador for 10 months prior to dental school, he knows how to speak Spanish!

Dr. Ted Loiben, DDS

Raised in Lincolnwood, Dr. Ted knew ever since he was a kid that he wanted to become a dentist just like his father. After graduating from Niles West High School, he went on to attend Tulane University in New Orleans for his undergraduate degree in Biology before going to Loyola University School of Dentistry in Chicago for his Doctor of Dental Surgery. Now, he gets to work alongside an incredible team while helping little ones maintain and improve their pearly whites.

Dr. Ted went to Mt. Sinai Hospital Medical Center in Chicago to complete a one-year general practice residency. There, he received extensive training in oral surgery and anesthesia. During his time as a general dentist, he grew a passion for working with younger patients and utilizing both his personality and his dental skills to help children feel more comfortable while undergoing dental treatment. For this reason, he went to study at the University of Nebraska’s two-year residency program for a certificate of specialty in pediatric dentistry. This curriculum involved all phases of a child’s psychological development as well as hands-on experience in caring for severely apprehensive patients who required checkups and/or other complex procedures. While challenging, Dr. Ted absolutely loves what he does.

Checkups & Cleanings

Brushing and flossing consistently are extremely important, but so is coming in for a checkup and cleaning every six months. These routine appointments allow our pediatric dentists near Arlington Heights to look for early warning signs of oral health problems, like tooth decay. We also use these appointments to share our recommendations on products your child should be using, give pointers on at-home oral hygiene, and answer any questions you have as the parent.

Emergency Kid’s Dentistry

If your child is struggling with a toothache, they knocked-out a tooth while playing a sport, their gums are bleeding when they floss, or they are experiencing any other abnormal dental symptoms, scheduling an appointment with our emergency dentist near Arlington Heights should be a top priority. After we alleviate your child’s pain and conduct a comprehensive exam, we can determine what restorative and/or cosmetic care is needed.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Today, it’s not just adults who are aware of their smile – teenagers notice imperfections as well! The good news is that you can bring them to the same team you know and trust to enhance the size, shape, and shade of their teeth too. With teeth bleaching, tooth-colored fillings, and dental bonding, we can fix everything from small cavities and minor chips to significant stains and noticeable gaps. The first step of the entire process is simple: schedule a time for you and your child to come in for a consultation.

Restorative Dentistry

If your child adopts healthy habits, like brushing consistently and coming in every six months for a checkup, then there’s a good chance that they won’t develop a cavity. With that said, a little over 90% of Americans have had a cavity by their 21st birthday, so it’s likely that some type of restorative dentistry will be needed over the years. Fortunately, we take a conservative approach and utilize materials that don’t compromise on appearance or function. In other words, we can restore the health of your child’s tooth without drawing any unwanted attention to their smile.

Special Needs Dentistry

If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist who has experience helping children with physical, developmental, behavioral, and cognitive disabilities, then look no further than our certified pediatric dentists: Dr. Nick and Dr. Ted. With a commitment to compassionate care and gentle dentistry, they can help your child have the positive experience they deserve from routine checkups to essential restorative care.

Adolescent Dentistry

In their teen years, your child might feel like they are “too old” to visit a pediatric dentist. In reality, it’s more important than ever that they visit one. After all, these specialists undergo advanced training on issues that adolescents face, like impacted wisdom teeth. Our dedicated dental team near Arlington Heights is also here to provide treatments that maintain and enhance their smiles too, including routine checkups and dental bonding. Simply put, we’re here to help with all of your teen’s dental needs and smile goals!
