About Payam Zarei, DDS

Dr. Zarei has been in the practice of dentistry for 25 years. A native of Iowa he was one of the youngest graduates from the University of Iowa School of Dentistry. Dr. Zarei graduated in the top 5% of his class and furthered his education with a general practice hospital residency in New York City. He is a graduate of the United States Dental Institute for Orthodontics, and a Fellow of the International College of Implantologists. Dr. Zarei attends a prodigious amount of continuing education to better serve his patients. He is section chief of department of surgery at St. May and Elizabeth Medical Center in the Wicker Park area. He provides excellent service, but what is most evident is his caring attitude towards his patients and his emphasis on prevention. Being located at St. Mary's hospital complex, our main focus is prevention of dental problems and improving the general health of our patients. We provide a high standard of care and have a long term approach with our patients. We care for them as family and want the best for them. That is why our focus starts with informing our patients of their oral conditions and treatment needs. Next we provide affordable options that allow them to achieve their goals, and follow through with providing the best treatment possible. We provide excellent care from all disciplines of dentistry including restoration of teeth, maintaining excellent gum health, orthodontics to straighten teeth, and ways to brighten and improve patients smiles. However, none of this happens before we get to know our patients and learn how we can help them live happier, healthier lives.
