New Dental Patients Welcome in Tinley Park, IL

Starting with a new dentist shouldn't be stressful

At Downtown Tinley Dental, we make your first visit comfortable and straightforward – no pressure, no judgment, just quality dental care focused on your needs.

What to Expect During Your First Visit

Your First Appointment

Your first appointment is all about getting to know you and understanding your dental health needs. We take an individualized approach because we know not every patient fits into a regimented schedule.

If you have a specific issue, we’ll address that first. No rushing, no high-pressure tactics – just honest conversation about your oral health and what options make sense for you.

We’ll Review Your Health History

We’ll discuss any medications you’re taking, previous dental experiences, and current concerns. This enables us to provide the safest and most effective care tailored to your specific situation.

Comprehensive Examination

Using modern digital technology, Dr. Tyler Markus will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and oral health. We’ll explain what we see and answer any questions you have.

Discussion of Treatment Options

If treatment is needed, we’ll explain your options clearly and help you understand the benefits of each approach. You’re never pressured to decide immediately – sometimes we schedule a second appointment.

Insurance and Payment Made Simple

We handle the insurance paperwork so you don’t have to stress about coverage details. Our “Make It Happen” mentality means we’ll do whatever it takes to ensure you get the treatment you need.

Your treatment doesn’t have to be dictated by your budget. We’ll work with you to find payment options that suit your needs.

Insurance We Accept

We work with most major dental insurance plans and will file all necessary paperwork on your behalf. We’ll handle your claims so you don’t have to worry about it.

Don’t have traditional insurance? Ask us about our in-house dental savings plan—a great alternative that makes quality care affordable for your whole family.

Flexible Payment Options

We offer several ways to make dental care affordable:

  • CareCredit financing with promotional periods
  • Flexible payment plans tailored to your budget
  • All major credit cards accepted
  • We’ll help you find a solution that works for your situation
