Services Available
In addition to the standard general dental services, Dr. Rubino provides many specialty services to his patients. One visit root canals, non surgical gum therapy, implant restorations, and all forms of cosmetic dentistry. We also can provide dental sleep medicine options for sleep apnea and snoring, performance enhancing athletic mouth guards, and immediate implant restorations the day implants are placed!
Dental Sleep Medicine
We offer exciting options to patients who have significant snoring or mild to moderate sleep apnea. These dental appliances are FDA approved, highly effective, and covered by many medical insurance plans. The option for apnea patients to sleep without a CPAP machine is one of the most satisfying services we provide!
Athletic performance enhancing Mouthgaurds
We are authorized providers of the Underarmour line of performance enhancing mouth guards. In both custom and boil and bite versions, these mouthguards have been clinically proven to improve athletic performance, as tested in multiple university studies, by as much as 17%
Single visit implant restorations
Working closely with our oral surgeons, we can now offer patients the option of having teeth placed on their implants the day of surgery! This is revolutionizing the use of implants and patients love not having to wear temporary prosthetics during the implant integration period.
Community Involvement
Our team believes that it is our responsibility to contribute to the community. Dr. Rubino has participated in the Chamber of Commerce and we have sponsored youth sports programs for over 30 years. Every team member also spends time in the community. Dr. Rubino grew up in Park Ridge, raised his family here, and feels strongly that is important to support the many great volunteer organizations that make Park Ridge the special place it is.
