Smile Specialist

As not only dentists, but also as artists, Dr. Hartlieb & Dr. Ching know that planning a smile design is a personalized, well-planned process specific to each patient – there is no “one-size-fits-all” option. They will listen and ask questions to gain a better understanding of your desired goals. They will be honest, insightful… and may even stretch your imagination when it comes to thinking about what your smile could be now and in the future.

At Chicago Beautiful Smiles, it’s our goal to systematically evaluate your oral health, diagnose any conditions and resolve your esthetic issues. The end result is the ideal combination of function and cosmetics.

When you go through an esthetic dental makeover, your dentist strives to create a more stable, peaceful system designed to generate harmony between the muscles, bones, joints, teeth and other tissues that make up your mouth.

Sharing a beautiful smile that you absolutely love will make you feel more confident and boost your self-esteem. If you find you aren’t proud of the smile you have, we can help you find one about which you are proud.

At Chicago Beautiful Smiles, we incorporate several factors that influence a natural smile, including:

Contouring, shaping and other characteristics of the face.
The shape, dimensions and size of the teeth
Your smile’s symmetric midpoint
The angle and location the teeth
The gum and lip line.
The coloring of the skin and eyes.

Smile Design Plans

Our philosophy on smile design is that with a well-designed plan, the dentist and the patient are collaborative in the decisions. We will offer treatment options to make the decision of what treatments will achieve stunning, natural results. Before you invest your time and money in cosmetic dentistry, be sure to answer the following questions:

Is your dentist artistically inclined, or does he or she view dentistry as most dentists do, focused on simply fixing things that are broken?
Has your dentist spent years taking advanced continuing education courses in the latest cosmetic dentistry techniques?
Can you see before and after pictures and testimonial from other patients?
Can your dentist show you how the procedure is done and what results might be expected (through imaging or other means)?

If you’d like a chance to meet Dr. Hartlieb, Dr. Ching and their staff and get a tour of the office, please call us (847)729-6080 or request an appointment.

Real Patient Reviews

I have been going to this practice for several years now. I seemingly never have to wait when I arrive at the office and they are all very professional. Dr. Hartlieb and Dr. Ching have been terrific. In addition to doing great dental work, each has a great rapport with their patients. All of their assistants have been top notch as well.

I recently met with Dr. Ching to have some dental work done, and had an exceptional experience at this office! I usually hate going to the dentist, but this experience was different–this office is hands-down, THE nicest dental facilitiy I have ever seen.

- Shaun F.

This dental office is something I haven’t seen before. I had many past dental experiences at other dental offices (unfortunately not good) and finally I found Chicago Beautiful Smiles. Dr. Hartlieb had helped me restore my teeth to a beautiful smile.

- Natasa R.

I am a loyal patient for over (yikes!) 20 years because I appreciate the time, skill and patience of the entire team. As proof of my gratitude, I live in the city and reverse commute every six months for my appointment.

- Dennis H.

Dr. Hartlieb is by far the best dentist I have ever been to. He has transformed my smile into something of beauty. In fact, many people comment on how beautiful my teeth are who do not even know that I have had major dental work performed. I used to never want to smile that large before, but now I smile as big as possible when photographed.

- Fran L.

I always have a great experience when I go to Chicago Beautiful Smiles. The staff is amazing and Dr. Hartlieb and Dr. Ching are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The facility is incredible and I feel like I’m being treated with the best technology in the dental industry. Go to Chicago Beautiful Smiles for a consultation and I guarantee you will go back time and time again. It does not get any better in the Chicago area.

- Antonio S.

I had a great experience with Dr. Ching – very professional and thorough in his craft. I had been seeing my previous dentist for the past 15 years; however, I am ready to make the permanent switch to Chicago Beautiful Smiles. Dr. Ching is great at explaining the procedures he was performing and made my visit comfortable.
