Reception
I have been employed in the dental field for six years, the last three years in the office of Dr. Blass. Dr. Blass is a very caring and competent practitioner. He tailors his treatment to each patient's needs and strives to accomplish the treatment as painlessly and efficiently as possible.
I enjoy interacting with the patients and I do my best to make the administrative side of the office run smoothly so that the financial and dental insurance needs of each patient are handled competently.
In my time outside of the office, I enjoy skiing, bowling and camping with my husband, my daughters and our dog, Ella.
Julia
Dental Hygienist
I'm one of the dental hygienists in the office. I've been working at Dr. Blass' practice for over six years. With a friendly and professional atmosphere, every day at this practice is a pleasant experience, and it's always a pleasure to come to work. I share and respect Dr. Blass' conservative philosophy and personal approach to every patient. I love my job, and I love working at this practice!
I have two children; I love being a mother, and I enjoy spending time with my kids. I also enjoy cooking, and I try to cook as often as possible. I look forward to meeting you and making your smile shine!
Vickie
Dental Hygienist
I have been a proud member of Dr. Blass' wonderful team since 2012! Dr. Blass and I share much of the same professional ideologies. Like Dr. Blass, I am dedicated to our patients and giving them the care that they deserve. My ultimate goal is to help each patient maintain a healthy and beautiful smile while providing a comfortable atmosphere during every appointment.
I began my career in 2008 when I graduated, with honors, from William Rainey Harper's Dental Hygiene program, where I also became certified in local anesthetic. In order to better serve my patients, I participate in yearly continuing education courses. This helps me stay current with all new products, research, and theories. I am also a member of the American Dental Hygienist Association and the Illinois State Dental Society.
Volunteering and helping those in need is a passion of mine and is extremely rewarding. I've had the opportunity to volunteer at Head Start, Give Kids a Smile, Little City, the Mobile Dental Clinic, and at various health fairs and elementary schools throughout the area.
When I'm not working, I enjoy Jazzercise and yoga classes, going to the movies, and spending time with my husband, family, and friends.

Certified Dental Assistant
I've been working at this practice as a certified dental assistant since 1981, a great testament to my commitment to dentistry and to my patients. I have enjoyed the many years of working with our patients, and I am grateful that I've been able to work with such a wonderful staff. Dr. Blass is caring and dedicated to his patients; he treats each patient as an individual as he addresses their needs.
In my spare time, my husband and I enjoy traveling to Florida, and golfing together.

I have worked for nearly a decade as a dental assistant for Dr. Blass. Dr. Blass is a wonderful dentist; he focuses on our patients as individuals and offers a complete range of solutions to their specific dental needs. We appreciate the trust our patients place in us and make every effort to honor that trust by providing the highest level of dental care possible. Our practice seeks to maintain a friendly yet professional relationship with each patient. We always look forward to caring for our patients, and making each person who comes to our practice smile!
In my free time, I enjoy cooking, baking, sewing, reading, and most of all, spending time with my family.
