Decades of Forever Smiles

Dr. Razdolsky and the Forever Smiles team are honored and proud to be celebrating their 30th anniversary at the Buffalo Grove location. That’s 360 months and more than ten thousand days creating beautiful Forever Smiles for patients both past and present.

“Working with patients of all ages over the past 30 years has been an amazing experience,” said Dr. Razdolsky. “Through the years, we have not only gotten to know our patients, they have become a part of our own family. We’ve been able to help hundreds of children achieve beautiful Forever smiles, and then subsequently their own children come to us as well,” he continued.

Plenty has changed at Forever Smiles over the past thirty years, including hairstyles, clothing fads, interior finishes, furnishings, and even the technology. But what the team at Forever Smiles is most proud of is their on-going commitment to stay up to date with the latest in Orthodontic advancements. Indeed, there have been big changes in technology which has vastly improved the field of orthodontics. Dr. Razdolsky regularly shares with us how orthodontics is continually evolving, and how he propels his practice to keep pace.

“We now use 3D digital x-rays and photography to reduce radiation, as well as digital impressions and virtual planning tools in developing treatment options for better patient care,” said Dr. Razdolsky. “Even more exciting is how orthodontics has increased use of peer-reviewed, evidence-based techniques to help improve planning decisions. Technology has really helped the professional orthodontic community to come together in making these ever-important connections.”

For instance, Forever Smiles recently joined the National Dental Practice-Based Research Network. This is a great organization which Dr. Razdolsky thinks will be pivotal to research and new opportunities for treatment in the field. It also provides Forever Smiles a tremendous platform to share ideas with other talented dental professionals which in-turn benefits patients with better diagnosis and treatment outcomes.

Yes, the office has experienced cosmetic and technological changes over the past 30 years, but what has not changed? The Forever Smiles commitment to providing patients the best level of care in a professional and inviting environment.

During their years at the Buffalo Grove location, Dr. and Anna Razdolsky have raised their four wonderful children and recently celebrated the birth of their second grandchild.

“While the Forever Smiles family has grown over that time, so has our own,” says Anna. “We are so lucky to have our Forever Smiles family and team to share our lives with. It makes the journey so much more fun and fulfilling.”

And while reminiscing about the past is great, what the future holds is very exciting. The Forever Smiles team looks forward to building strong relationships with our current and future patients while creating Forever Smiles that will last a lifetime!
