In our patients’ words
Your most comfortable visit yet starts here.
Hamel Dental is a father-and-son family dental practice at 210 Burlington Avenue in downtown Clarendon Hills, Illinois — providing preventative, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry for children and adults since 1985. New patients are always welcome; most insurance is accepted and filed for you.
In pain right now? You can reach us.
Toothaches, broken teeth, and lost crowns rarely schedule themselves politely. We hold time for same-day dental emergencies, and after hours you are not routed to an answering service: call 630-323-0380 and press 2, and the call forwards directly to Dr. Hamel’s own phone. That is a promise very few dental offices anywhere can make, and it is one reason three generations of local families keep a smile worth smiling about.
Jaw pain, clicking, morning headaches, or teeth wearing down faster than they should? Those are usually bite problems, not tooth problems — and occlusion is a particular focus of ours. Start with our page on TMJ and bite therapy.
Honest answers about cost and insurance
We are an out-of-network practice — which simply means you can be treated here regardless of your plan. We accept and file most dental insurance, tell you what your plan is likely to cover before treatment begins, and put every recommendation in writing with its cost. No surprises is not a slogan here; it is the office policy. Details on insurance and financing, including our in-office discount plan and CareCredit.
Serving the western suburbs from downtown Clarendon Hills
Two blocks from the Clarendon Hills Metra station and minutes from Hinsdale, Westmont, Willowbrook, Oak Brook, and Downers Grove, our office has been part of this downtown for four decades. Early-morning and evening hours fit around commutes; family block scheduling fits around school runs.
We also welcome families from Burr Ridge, Darien, and Western Springs.
We schedule around real life: 7:00 AM openings for commuters two blocks from the Clarendon Hills Metra stop, evening appointments on Wednesdays and Thursdays, Friday morning hours when many nearby offices are closed, and family block scheduling so parents and kids — from children’s checkups to adult cosmetic care — are seen in a single trip.
