Edmund Padleckas, DDS

I’ve been going there for over twenty years after a recommendation from a co-​worker. Over the years I’ve tried a lot of dentists and he’s the best, IMO. Glad I’ve found him and so are my teeth. :-)

Dr. Padleckas is a dentist you can completely trust. I’ve been going to him on and off («off» only because of a move) for 15 years and he is truly the best. I feel that I am in excellent care with him!

Best dentist I’ve ever seen!

Dr Padleckas deserves 6 stars! He is that great! I have been a patient for about 5 years and feel like I will be a patient for life.
A few bullet points I thought would be important to point out.
1. He is one of the most kind, gentle, compassionate thorough professionals you will ever meet. He is really good at his job and makes the dental experience painless and informative.
2. Consider him to be sort of a «holistic» dentist. He is going to consult with you about doing the bare minimum and least invasive options. He is not going to do anything you don’t absolutely need He is not looking to make a quick dollar.
3. He is will work with most insurances and work with what is covered by your insurance.
4. Office is located in Lincoln Park in a nice Depaul affiliated building which is clean and quite.
5. One time the dentist personally returned my phone call on a Saturday afternoon and phoned in a prescription to my local pharmacy.

I was referred by a co-​worker to see Dr. Padleckas. I have had a fear of the dentist for years. After dealing with some bad dental experiences, I was hesitant to take her word. However, seeing her sincere and obvious rah rah for him, I figured… what do I have to lose.
All I can say is… what a joy it is going to see him. Yes, I am talking about a dentist here.
He is super gentle, honest about any treatment and kind. He is concerned about your comfort and what steps to take to make any work, as easy, stress free and painless as possible. He also goes out of his way to make appointments that suit your time frame.
I am now bringing my kids to see him. I cannot recommend anyone better

Dr P is the absolute best dentist… and I know my dentists! I’ve had two root canals, a dental implant disaster, and orthodontics twice! Dr P picked me up as a patient after I had a disaster with my dental implant, and he took the time to make sure I understood everything that was going on. He always welcomes questions and he always takes his time. He is so thorough for teeth cleaning, and always makes sure you feel comfortable. I truly would not go to ANYONE else. If you are looking for a great dentist, look no further.

Excellent dentist — so kind and considerate and always accommodating to see his patients. I don’t have any apprehensions going to the dentist, but if I did, I would highly highly recommend Dr. Padleckas. He walks you through all the procedures, tells you exactly what he’s doing and why and gives you options. I’ve had everything from a root canal to veneer procedures with Dr. Padleckas and could not be more pleased. Excellent work, I can’t give any higher of a recommendation. Although I’ve recently moved out of state, I still return home to see him.

I have been seeing Dr. Padleckas since I moved to Chicago in 1995 and think he is the most thorough clinician and fairly priced dentist around. We decided to switch our kids to see him as well and they love going to see him. His location is convenient and while he is not there every day, the early and weekend hours are great.

Dr. Padleckas is just an all around great dentist. I have been his patient for four years, during which time I no longer fear going to the dentist. He is very good about explaining the examination process and prioritizing my dental care (READ: He does not try to up sell elective procedures, i.e. replacing old fillings, like some dentists tend to).

I have been going to Dr. Padleckas for 10 yrs. He is gentle with his procedures and very thorough in both his exams and explanations. I have also referred at least 2 people to him who have also loved him. I highly recommend him.

Great Dentist. He does an excellent job of both telling and showing you what’s going on with your teeth. Very nice manner of dealing with patients. I would highly recommend Dr. Pakleckas.

Dr. Padleckas is excellent — I have gone to him for years. He is patient, gentle and polite. His schedule isn’t overbooked, so he always has time to chat with you about your teeth. And he has made some excellent recommendations for things beyond his scope, ie. Periodontist.

Y’know, I went to Dr. Padleckas years ago & really liked his friendly, conversational manner. So much, in fact, that now that my insurance accepts him, I’m going back!

Dr. Padleckas is the only dentist I’ve ever had who wasn’t a complete jerk. One of his specialties is treating «afraid» patients, which means that he’s polite. I still don’t like going to the dentist, but I like him! I just don’t like drills.
