Your smile is one of the first things people notice, and it says a lot about your overall health and confidence. Finding a dental practice where you feel genuinely cared for can transform how you feel about going to the dentist.
At Floss & Co., our team takes a different approach to dentistry. We believe getting to know you as a person is just as important as getting to know your teeth. When you walk through our doors in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood of Chicago, you become part of our community.
Your Health and Well-Being Come First
At Floss & Co., your health and well-being are our top priority. For us, this means building a team of highly qualified dentists, orthodontics professionals, hygienists, technicians, and administrative staff dedicated to serving you. We work with you to find the best treatment option to fit your needs and achieve an optimal outcome.
Our practice invests in advanced cleaning technology to give you the safest, most hygienic experience possible. From digital scans that eliminate uncomfortable impressions to same-day crowns that save you time, we use modern techniques to make your visits more comfortable. We also prioritize a painless approach to dentistry, using technology and techniques designed to minimize discomfort during every procedure.
What Makes Our Team Different
We take time to know you as a person, not just a patient. Building genuine relationships allows us to understand your concerns, preferences, and goals for your smile. This approach shapes every aspect of your care, from your first consultation to your follow-up appointments.
Dr. Silva trained under some of the world’s most renowned practitioners in airway expansion, a treatment approach that can improve breathing and overall health for both children and adults. Dr. Murphy brings a holistic approach to orthodontics, focusing on expansion methods that avoid pulling teeth or shaving them down. Together, our team combines this advanced training with a tech-centric philosophy that prioritizes your comfort.
We use advanced tools and techniques to minimize discomfort during procedures, making dental visits more pleasant for patients of all ages. Digital scans eliminate the need for goopy impressions, and our closed-mouth whitening system reduces post-treatment sensitivity.
