Wheaton Prairie Dental

Experiencia fantástica: Five stars says it all! Everything was exceptional

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Balaney is an excellent dentist. He and his very capable assistant did a root canal and then installed a temporary crown and three weeks later a permanent crown on my tooth. Their work was meticulous, flawless and completely pain free. I highly recommend Wheaton Prairie Dental and their excellent staff and services.

Experiencia fantástica: When moving to a new state, it’s important to find a great network of doctors, this includes finding an awesome dentist! I google searched dentists near me with high ratings that is also within network of my insurance. Wheaton Prairie Dental meets all my needs and then some. Experienced, kind, knowledgeable staff have taken care of me through every step of the process. Reception is always amazing, Tracy is so warm when greeting, creating appointments, and being upfront with pricing as far as what insurance may not cover. I love the transparency because I have been to so many other offices that do not do this. Wheaton Prairie Dental also takes most major insurances; my husband is on a different plan and they take both of ours! Like most anywhere I’ve gone, it important to book out far in advance and keep the appointment. Today was my second cleaning with Alexis and third visit overall. She is excellent, thorough, and again, a world of knowledge when it comes to oral hygiene, preventative care, and honest feedback on future procedures. I came to them as a new patient stating a previous out of state dentist plus the periodontist specialist in my previous state of residency scheduled me to get a gum graft pretty urgently. Well, when I moved here to Illinois and asked them how to move forward with this, they both thought it would be entirely unnecessary. If I didn’t move to Illinois and switch dentists, I probably would have already paid almost $2,000 for a gum graft that they deemed pretty dramatic for my low level of gum recession and sensitivity levels. I am so thankful to them for their expert opinion and now I can avoid the uncomfortable procedure that could potentially not even make that large of a difference in my personal case. I had to also get my first ever filling done a few months back with Dr. Balaney and it was so fast and painless. He walked me through every step of the process to set me at ease. Everyone here in office takes exceptional care. I never feel rushed, experience discomfort, or get stuck with a surprise massive bill. Not to mention, the location is so convenient with a massive parking lot. I am very grateful to call Wheaton Prairie Dental my new home dentist! I very highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful and thoughtful as well as professionally first-rate.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly staff, great Dentist and hygienist. Never had her before, so wasn't sure what to expect.She did an excellent job!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and caring

Experiencia negativa: Had been going here for ~5 years. All had been fine - but most recent appointment they called to inform they needed to reschedule due to both the doctor and hygienist being out for the day. Odd they scheduled it in the first place, but understand issues happen. The more frustrating part was how they handled their scheduling issue - I could either come in two separate times over the next few weeks (cleaning and exam separate), or come in 3 months from now. They didn't care in the least about finding a better option. Disappointing, but I found a new dentist with more updated facilities closer by and better flexibility for scheduling.

Experiencia fantástica: The hygienist was very good and did an excellent job. She was also very nice

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Balaney and his staff are amazing! They are so smart, skilled, kind and collaborative. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Balaney is absolutely the best!! I needed a crown replacement and rather than settle for the first crown, which was not fitting to Dr Balaney’s high quality standards, I had to wait for the second crown. I’m so very happy with the results and was well worth the wait!! I kid Dr Balaney, him having a perfectionist personality is what you definitely want in a dentist. :-) And the entire team at Wheaton Prairie Dental are exemplary as well!!

Experiencia fantástica: I recently had a great experience at Wheaton Prairie Dental. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful from start to finish. My hygienist, Alexis, was extremely thorough with my cleaning and took the time to make sure everything was done carefully and comfortably. The level of professionalism and attention to detail really stood out. I felt well cared for throughout my visit and appreciated how personable everyone was. I would highly recommend Wheaton Prairie Dental to anyone looking to establish a long-term relationship with a dental practice they can trust.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a crown replacement and I am very pleased with the results.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a perfect cleaning appointment today. Kayleigh, the ladies at the desk and doctor are always great to work with. They run on time and are always care about us!

Experiencia fantástica: Kind staff, thorough cleaning, and great personal care tips!

Experiencia fantástica: I loved the whole experience... my cleaning and x-rays were gentail, quick and painless. Everyone was polite, happy and efficient. Above all, it was economically fair. I am reconendending them to many!

Experiencia fantástica: I love this office! The staff and doctor are the best! They are friendly and treat you like family. I am a wimp when it comes to dental work of any kind, but they understand and make you completely comfortable! If I could, I would give them 100 stars!

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff and an excellent facility. I am confident that I will receive great care every time that I go there! They caught my oral cancer at an early stage and I was able to receive treatment before it spread.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a good experience. I went in for a cleaning and a consult on some cosmetic work. They cleaned my teeth fast, answered all questions I had, and were very thorough on explaining the work they did and the plan they set up for me. I am returning in June. I am satisfied with the results

Experiencia fantástica: Positive experience each time I have been here. No waiting for scheduled appointment time. Friendly people who communicate well with the patient and the rest of the staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff! Alexis was pleasant while doing my cleaning. Had to come back for a filling and Adam was polite and professional. Dr.Balaney explained the process from start to finish for a smooth experience.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is great. I can’t recommend Wheaton Prairie Dental enough! Great Doctor, great staff, great experience. Doc was able to explain everything and was patient and kind. 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: I went here with the previous owner, and only had good experiences. Since Dr. Balaney has taken over it has maintained all the good things I appreciated before and more. I appreciate that they don't try to push extra products/procedures. The front office staff is efficient, responsive, and friendly. Parking is super easy. I had a crown replaced the other day and I'm very happy with how it went. I would recommend this office to anyone.

Experiencia negativa: Went halfway through a crown replacement with stabbing pains before I was offered Novocain. Crown wasn't fitting properly so the tech needed to take multiple xrays to find some leftover cement but did not offer any PPE like the lead smock. He then took the crown out to remove the old cement but dropped the crown on the floor and left it for a few minutes while he went about doing other things. Once I was finally doped up they took more xrays but did offer the proper PPE the second time around and things finally got back on track but the experience was less than pleasing and took about twice as long as it should have for the work.

Experiencia fantástica: very attentive, quick work - very satisfied!

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for taking care of my teeth — the team is very professional and I appreciate the hygienist for doing good job cleaning my teeth.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and friendly!

Experiencia fantástica: Started on time and the hygienist was thorough and careful. Their previous work has actually started to reverse some bigger problems that were on the horizon.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome. Clean. Comfortable. Staff is so nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Always excellent care and thorough dental treatment. Alexis took extra time today on my X-rays and mouth cancer screening. I highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff were friendly and professional and my treatment was performed with precision and skill. I can’t believe that I actually enjoyed my visit to the dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Great office! Very friendly staff and very knowledgeable Dr.!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a cleaning with Kaylee and she was great. She was efficient, kind, and gentle.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently moved further away but I still come here because of the consistent quality care I receive. Wait times are minimal, the staff is friendly, and the work is exceptional. Could not recommend Wheaton Prairie Dental enough.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Wheaton Prairie Dental for about 3 years now. The office staff are all great, and I particularly like the hygienist, Caylee. She seems knowledgeable and does a great job. She is also fun to talk to. She’s a big part of why I keep going back.

Experiencia fantástica: Extremely competent dentist with a perfect bedside manner and a wonderful staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Started the process of having a crown placed With a return visit within two weeks. The office is very professional, explains the procedure, and what to expect after the procedure. I feel very comfortable with their recommendations and they’ve always done a good job.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been looking for a new dentist since mine retired. I am so blessed to have.Dr Balaney and his amazing team! I would highly recommend them. They are professional, affordable, and approachable.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently had a crown replacement done, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment I walked in, the entire team made me feel comfortable and cared for. The front desk staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly organized — everything from scheduling to check-in was seamless. Dr. Balaney and his hygienists took the time to explain each step of the process and made sure I was completely at ease. His attention to detail and precision were exceptional — the new crown looks and feels perfect, better than I ever expected.

Experiencia fantástica: I had Alexis clean my teeth and I felt that she did a very thorough job. She was very friendly also!

Experiencia fantástica: Very sweet and kind staff. Supper helpful and detailed with their work! Very clean!

Experiencia negativa: My wife had a dental exam and cleaning And they advised deep cleaning of the teeth. After the deep cleaning was completed over 3 visits, suddenly gaps in some of the front teeth appeared. And the gaps caused the teeth to look ugly. Not only gap, but teeth show some deformities. When we went back to show the dentist, and during discussion, the dentist started to justify such gaps can show up after the procedure. My response was that why was the patient not informed about such risks before the procedure? Critical information that we needed to know before the procedure was not given to us. And now the teeth look ugly. Instead of taking responsibility, the dental office is trying to skirt the matter. I had payed close to $1000 from my pocket and now the dental office has not yet resolved the issue. Id urge the office to take responsibility and take appropriate corrective action to resolve this issue.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Balaney is THE BEST dentist I have come across; he is so kind and gentle, and made me feel so comfortable during my visit. He goes the extra mile to make his patients feel seen and heard! Thank you, Dr. Balaney! When I have kids, I already know who their dentist is going to be :)

Experiencia fantástica: I have now been here several times. The staff is exceptional. Everyone is so nice and they go the extra mile. I needed to be seen before a long trip and they got me in the same day. Dr. Balaney is excellent. I would highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Very pleasant doctor and staff, they are always right on time. Nice environment. Definitely recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Balaney is one of the best Dentists I have experienced over all my years. Very gentle and goes the extra mile to ensure the best outcome. He was my dentist at his last practice and I followed him to Wheaton when I needed to get more work done. I highly recommend!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The best service from the receptionists to the Hygienists and Assistants and Dr. Samir was efficient and thorough with all my procedures! 5 stars

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first visit at Wheaton Prairie Dental. My hygienist was so nice, really friendly and made me feel very comfortable. I really like Dr Balaney. He was really easy to talk to and took time to explain all my questions. I would highly recommend. I went back for my 2nd visit today and had two fillings repaired due to some additional decay. I continue to be impressed Dr Belaney is so nice and is a great communicator and kept me updated on what was going on.

Experiencia fantástica: Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. They got me in quickly for a problem I was having. I feel quite confident with their dental work and would recommend to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: Best dental appointment in years.

Thanks so much! The front desk staff was very kind as well. The whole practice is very very well run. Would recommend to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: The new dentist here, Dr. Balaney, is just as good as the previous dentist, Dr. Cololla. He has good bedside manner--friendly and calm. I'm not a dentist, but as far as I can tell the quality of the work seems good.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone is very friendly. The care is excellent.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and proficient professionals here. Excellent services! Second treatment verifies this review! Super good service here!

Experiencia fantástica: We moved to Wheaton last year and started going to Wheaton Prairie Dental and we are very happy with them. It has since transitioned from Dr Colella to Dr Balaney. Always nervous when a practice changes dentist but Dr Balaney quickly put me at ease. He is gentle and has a warm personality. I’ve had work done already by Dr Balaney and it was smooth sailing. I’m impressed with him and the whole team. Great, friendly front staff! Shout out to Hygienist Angie! So personable and comforting. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and friendly, dentist is excellent

Experiencia fantástica: I chipped my front tooth. The doctor saw me right away. It looks really good -can’t even tell. No pain either and it was covered by my insurance.

Experiencia fantástica: My visit with Wheaton prairie dental office in Wheaton was very satisfying, I was very happy with the doctor and their staff, very professional and I would highly recommend them.thank you so much

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a patient at Wheaton Prairie Dental for many years, and the staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable. If there ever is an issue that needs further treatment, they always discuss their findings with detailed imaging and photographs so I truly understand what’s going on in my mouth and can make the best, most-informed decision. They present my options thoroughly and without pressure. I truly feel like they are a thoughtful and caring partner in my overall dental healthcare, and I genuinely love visiting my hygienist for cleanings!!

Experiencia fantástica: They always provide a very comfortable experience. Glad I found this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Norine did a fantastic job cleaning my teeth. Dr Balaney did my exam and was very nice! Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing experience every time I go into the office. Every staff member is welcoming, they take time to explain every aspect of the procedure and take as much time needed to come up with a treatment plan that is best for you. During the procedure they make sure you are comfortable the entire time…very happy I found this place!

Experiencia fantástica: One word! Amazing ! All the staff are so friendly and caring! They will deserve more than 5 Stars!

Experiencia fantástica: Warm, friendly, professional staff always in tune with your comfort in mind. Dr. Colella is terrific - he listens, discusses options, provides support - great dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Very good experience! Who looks forward to dental work right? But, Dr Colella and His staff are awesome. Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Another awesome experience with Dr. Marco Colella and his staff. Top shelf all the way.

Experiencia fantástica: There is a very positive vibe in the office. The Dr. does great work and Megan is a pleasure to deal with.

Experiencia fantástica: Best cleaning I’ve ever had! Kaylee was thorough, friendly, and professional. Megan at the main desk helped me to get a last-minute appointment and the dentist was professional and thorough as well. I will keep going to Wheaton Prairie Dental.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had great experiences at this office. They are very family friendly. My 2 year old has gone here and they made him feel comfortable. I was able to get my teeth cleaned with my infant. Everyone is professional and kind! Loved the service.

Experiencia fantástica: Had my first appointment with Wheaton Prairie Dental. The experience was unlike any other dentist office visit I've ever had. Their staff and Dr. Colella went out of their way to explain every aspect and before and after each step asked if I had any questions. Their compassion and professionalize merged delivering a calming and healing environment. When checking out at reception, I was given a complete explanation of how my insurance paid for the visit. I was then given a printout showing exactly how my insurance worked and what benefits were still available for the year. Heard good things about their practice and am glad to report they are better than the best reviews.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to get filling done for 5 teeth. The doctor did a good job. The staff is awesome and are very polite. I would definitely recommend this place!

Experiencia fantástica: Have had 3 visits at Wheaton Prairie Dental now. Both dentists are excellent! Have received great care and excellent intervention for my moving teeth and grinding. No longer have pain. Reasonable prices… They even have a savings plan to join for those without dental insurance. Friendly and helpful staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and welcoming dentist and staff. We love that they treat adults and children, even young ones, and make it a positive experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Colella is a very skilled dentist. Precise, efficient and kind. A doctor’s doctor. Highly recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: My mother was pregnant with me when our family started seeing our dentist so when he retired, it was like loosing family. I am very particular about dental care. My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Colella and his staff for about 1.5 years (after COVID restraints lifted) and could not be happier!! The dental hygienist are gentle, but thorough and Dr. Colella is professional, but personable and takes his time with his exams. The office staff is friendly and professional. I am glad that we were able to find this team!

Experiencia fantástica: I was extremely impressed with how thorough they were from beginning to end. I was informed of what they were doing at every step of my visit. The entire experience was smooth, pleasant, and efficient.

Experiencia positiva: Having three, adjacent upper front teeth worked on simultaneously is not pleasant. Crowns placed previously and a couple replaced over the last year was the cause. One falling off in late 2021 added the third and one had a temporary placed because the original did not survive being bitten down on after coming loose. Barely completed checking in before called into room. Began with multiple x-rays then work began. Temp removed before shaping of all. One required extra work because it was too short. Packing of gums for impression most trying part. Impressions of teeth and bite followed before another, one piece, temporary placed. Used entire allotted 2 hours. Was discouraged when appt for crowns placement had to be rescheduled. Original date had taken Jul 4 holiday into consideration but more time in lab was necessary. New appt is now almost 1 month from first appt.

Experiencia fantástica: It’s probably unusual to say that you had a great visit to your dentist, but Dr. Collella and his staff are always professional, personal, and provide great service. I went to a couple other dentists in the area before finding this practice, and I would not go to anyone else!

Experiencia fantástica: They are very professional and friendly and do a great job caring for your teeth here! I should know because my father was a dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: We were referred by a friend and have had a wonderful experience with Wheaton Prairie Dental. Dr Collella is very knowledgeable as are his staff members. I recommend them to anyone who asks who our family dentist is.
