Ive been going to Dr. Tower for several years, and Im so happy I found such a great dentist. Ive had several dental emergencies, and each time Dr. Tower provided excellent care.
****UPDATE****Ive been seeing him since I wrote my first review and its only gotten better! I have had no better dentist office than this one. I strongly recommend coming here! The best part is their ability to be flexible with my schedule. I travel a lot for work which makes it hard to get in but they always do their best to accommodate me.I had my normal dentist but had an emergency and couldnt get me in. I was in so much pain that I almost went the the ER, unfortunately dentists are the only ones who can fix teeth pain. My first call to Dr Towers office I was greeted by a very polite lady who was able to get me in as an emergency that day! Once I was in, it was nothing short of an amazing experience,, as much as a dental procedure can be anyway. Ive been to a lot of dentist throughout the years and I have to say he is the BEST dentist Ive ever seen. Mind you my last dentist was awesome to but Dr Towers goes well above and beyond for his patients! The entire process he explained in detail whatz he was doing to make me feel comfortable and understand what hes doing. He used really cool new utensils that Ive never seen before that every dentist should use! I can say anything negative about this dental office. Even the following day Dr Towers called me on his day off to make sure I was doing okay! It was such an great experience that Ive decided to switch and make Dr Towers my main dentist. His website stated they even do pediatrics so we will be bringing the entire family over to his practice. I strongly recommend this dentist!!!!!
Dr. Forrest Tower is very thorough. He offered different alternatives , but never pressured. I felt as ease in his hands.
Highly recommended! The nurses are great the dentist is awesome! I had an emergency and I am so grateful I called because they went out of their way to help me in the time of need. Their office was closed but was still able to speak with the nurse about my situation. I then get a call offering if I can make it in within 30 minutes they can help me sooner! For me that was a blessing and I felt like they cared for me. It is very hard to find a dentist that actually listens and makes you feel cared for. With such a great experience this will be my forever dentist! I am the type that has a fear of dentists and doctors but after finding this dentist and the way he made me feel I dont mind going to the dentist. I now have an appointment for next week for an exam and cleaning thats how great this dentist and his nurses are! I also felt very safe with their procedures due to covid. So from their services and safeness I will recommend to anyone who asks! If i could give them a 10 star rating they would have got that!!!
Dr. Tower has been my dentist since I was a child. He has been gentle and professional every time i visit.He explains each part of the procedure, and why its being done and is always careful to make sure its as painless as possible.I could not recommend him enough.
Dr. Tower is incredible . And his staff is the best. I had used the same dentist for 30 years, and he retired. I went through multiple dentist till I found Dr. Tucker. I feel just as comfortable with him as my original dentist. Thank you.
The best and most honest dentist I have been to in a long time and doesnt push patients to have unnecessary treatments as most places seem to do now a days. Definitely 5 stars and would recommend to everyone.
Dr. Tower has been the family dentist for years. He strives for excellence in his work. The results are of the highest standard. Dentists are not cheap but with Dr. Tower, the patient always gets value for money spent. He comes highly recommended.
Ive been seeing Dr Tower for 20 years. I moved to Indiana 6 years ago and still travel back to Oak Lawn for dental care. Hes a great dentist!
Dr. Tower knows his stuff I have never had a bad experience with him or his pleasant staff.He is a credit to his profession and i highly recommend him.I even spent a new years eve day getting some work done one with him.
I visited Dr. Towers Dental Office many times during the month of April 2019, as I needed a lot of dental work done in the shortest time possible.All personnel in the office were very nice, caring and helpful, and they kindly responded to all my requests. They even made a few very short notice appointments for me due to my availability and proximity, which worked out great.Dr. Tower was always very professional, gentle and considerate. He carefully evaluated my dental needs, gave me treatment options, and informed me regarding the procedures I needed done.Dr. Tower worked a lot on my teeth, as I needed two crowns, many fillings, the upper front teeth repaired and reshaped, and deep cleaning for all my teeth.Everything was done beautifully: the crowns were perfectly set in, all the fillings fit nicely having the proper height, my front teeth look healthy and strong, and all my teeth have a lighter color and a nicer appearance.Great professional dental care, all my needs competently and appropriately addressed, so Im very happy with the outcome and a positive experience at Dr. Forrest Towers Dental Office.
I have been going to Dr Tower for over 15 yrs. He is great! Extremely thorough, which is what you want in a dentist.
Dr. Tower is a great dentist with a great personality. His whole staff are a phenomenal group.
Outstanding service! I have been a patient of Dr Tower for close to 40 years. I highly recommend him!
Dr. Tower was wonderful! I had 5 very neglected molars, which needed removal. First, Dr. Tower never passed judgement for my neglect. Second, he wanted to make me feel relaxed. Dr. Tower excels at making sure you understand all the parts of the procedure. And his procedure is painless and in a clean and calm atmosphere. I have had many dentists in my lifetime-but none as kind and professional as Dr. Tower. His assistant Kelly is very helpful and considerate as well. I dont recommend neglecting your dental health. I DO recommend Dr. Tower, very highly, for your dental health care. Thank You Dr. Tower, and Kelly.Jody Faulkner
Hands down the most caring Doctor -in any field- Ive seen. My husbands family has been seeing him for decades, so happy I made the switch. He was more than happy to give me a second opinion before I was even his patient and has been willing to see me last minute, after hours when Im in pain to make sure everything looks ok. His receptionist, Kelly, is an absolute gem and is happy to answer any of my silly questions or ask Dr. Tower if she doesnt know the answer.
Dr. Tower provides exceptional trustworthy service to his patients. He is always prompt, informational and friendly. Its like having a dentist as a friend. I trust his opinions in my oral health and respect his work ethic and dedication to quality. The office staff is always helpful and friendly as well. Its always a pleasure to visit the office, even when some unpleasant work is needed. Thanks Dr. Tower :)
I cannot say enough wonderful things! The last six months I had a two emergencies - a broken crown with my implant on one side and a cavity (discovered after only chewing on one side with the broken implant) on the other. When I first called and left a message, I was really impressed to get prompt a call back from the dentist and an appointment! Both he and his staff are kind and friendly.Despite a stubborn and uncooperative part from the implant (and a whimpy patient), with a lotnof effort and determination from the dentist I am well on my way to finally getting my little problem fixed. I never thought I would use the word happy to describe a dental appointment!
I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Dr. Tower has been taking good care of my family for a long time!
Dr. Tower and his clan always make you feel welcome. They are a true dental family. I have been going there for 20+ years and have entrusted him with my children that are now grown and continue to go to him as well. Dr. Tower listens and determines the best course of action that works best for you and with you. His friendly demeanor puts you at ease even for a scaredy cat like me! He understands my sensitive teeth and makes sure I am not pain. If you have to go to the dentist...hes your guy!
Dr Tower has been my dentist for over 12 years. Over that time, I have had need of a fair amount of dental work, and Dr. Tower has performed it all flawlessly. Where other dentists are apt to send one off to a specialist for even a routine root canal, Dr. Tower can take care of the job expertly in-house. I have been impressed with his quality of work and his care and concern for pain management in the midst of what otherwise might be uncomfortable procedures. After longer procedures, it is not unusual to get a personal phone call from him later in the evening, checking on your status. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a good quality dentist.
I am a long time patient of Dr. Tower. I know I have a dentist that truly cares about my well being. He is very thorough and competent. His manner is very gentle and his fees are very reasonable. I usually am very anxious in a medical office but I am very relaxed with Dr. Tower. So, I couldnt be happier with my choice of dentist, and I recommend him to everyone.
Dr. Tower and the staff are AMAZING professionals! I have been going to Dr. Tower for at least 5 years now and each time I feel welcome and i know that i am getting the best care possible. Cheryl and the rest of the staff truly care about each patient and it shows. Dr. Tower and his staff make a great team. Each time i travel back to Oak Lawn i make sure to call ahead and schedule a visit with Dr. Tower. The visit is quick and PAINLESS. I ENJOY going to the dentist, as long as it is Dr. Tower. Let that last sentence sink in. (:
This was my first visit to this practice. I was impressed with the staff upon my arrival. They made me feel as though I was a long time patient and that they were glad to see me. After waiting only a few minutes, Dr. Tower greeted me in the waiting room and explained the necessary procedure and the approximate cost. His estimate was right on, something that does not always happen. I know I will be recommending this practice to others as Im sure the treatment I received by the Dr. and his staff are the norm.
Dr. Tower is one of the best dentists Ive been to. He listens to his patients (for example, I told him that anesthetics tend to wear off quickly on me, and he made sure that I made it through a lengthy procedure without feeling starting to return before it was finished). He and his staff are extremely professional, efficient, and friendly.Im actually starting to overcome my lifelong dread of dental appointments.
Dr. Tower is both professionally, and personally the best Dentist you could ask for. His staff is also amazing. I come home from my Florida home, just for Dr Tower. We absolutely love him and his staff.
I have been coming to Dr. Tower for 20+ years and he is easily the best dentist I have ever dealt with. My wife and I briefly tried a couple of other options that were closer to our home and wound up with unnecessary procedures and costly, subpar work. Dr. Tower, in contrast, is always forthright, has tremendous knowledge, and provides an array of treatment options. Could not recommend him more highly!
Who isnt nervous about going to the dentist? I always am, but Dr Forrest Tower and ALL of his staff are so delightful. They are gentle and compassionate. I have never waited in the waiting room in the 5+ years of coming here. I highly recommend them.
Dr. Tower has been my dentist since I was a kid. Extremely professional and does great work. Ive had teeth pulled, fillings put in, and cavaties drilled and filled. Been going to him for 20 years and have never had a bad experience. Highly recommend
My family and I have been going to Dr Tower for years. He and his staff are very knowledgeable and always accommodating. If you need any cosmetic work, fillings, crowns, he is the dentist to go to. Cant ask for a better experience in all the years weve seen him.
Dr Tower and staff are all super nice, friendly and has convenient hours for appts. Dr Tower always explains the procedure and the office is super clean and covid protocol is followed.
I have been under the dental care of Dr. Tower for over twenty years. Initially I needed rather extensive work from years of going from dentist to dentist getting cleanings and fillings here and there. Dr Tower was able to set a course of treatment over time that included much-needed crown, root canal, and filling work.My, now adult, children also happily receive care at Tower Dental.When you find a great dentist, you have found a good thing.
Dr. Forrest Tower took care of my multiple dental issues and completely improved how I feel about going to the dentist. His staff is also great and all of them worked with me and my schedule so I can get my many dental problems solved in a very short time.His office is located right across the street from Walgreens on Cicero Ave & 107th St. which is great if you also need to get something from the pharmacy.Thank you Dr. Tower and staff!Mark
I had an emergency on a Saturday and could not get into any dentists office and I came across Dr. Tower’s name on google. The moment I called, the receptionist was soo kind and got me in right away. I had an abscess and Dr. Tower was very kind and thoroughly explained everything that he would be doing. I was in excruciating pain for 2 days but that evening my pain was a ZERO. If I could give them 10 stars I would!
I drive almost 45 minutes to keep seeing Dr. Tower. Im not comfortable with having any dental work done, so I am very particular about my dentist. I know that Dr. Tower takes excellent care of me and my teeth. Hes always patient and gentle. As apprehensive as I might feel leading up to an appointment, I always leave saying This man is not allowed to retire. I dont want any other dentist. His staff is also kind and capable...what more can you ask for?
Excellent dentist with very friendly and caring staff. Would highly recommend their services.
I have been going to Dr. Tower my whole life and couldnt ask for a better dentist. My appointments are always quick, on time, and he is always informative. I would recommend him to anyone for all of your dental needs.
This was my initial visit to Dr. Forest Towers Dental office. I must say I was a little apprehensive since I was going to the Dentist! However, I was immediately assured by the staff that everything possible would be made to make my experience a most Pleasant one. I was not disappointed. Doctor Towers presented himself professionally and yet in a very friendly manner. He thoroughly explained exactly what procedure I would be having, time of completion and approximate cost. Overall I would definetely recommend my friends and family to see Doctor Towers.
Very professional and very good at making you feel welcomed and comfortable. If your afraid of shots and are afraid of doctors, I strongly recommend this doctor. Hes great and the work he does is amazing, Id bring the kids here. I will definetly be going back to this location from now on. Thank you so much!!!
I would like to thank Dr. Forrest Tower for his quick response to my dilemma. Two teeth from my partial broke while eating and it was late in the evening(I panicked). I emailed his office with a request to come in the following morning. To my surprise, he responded to my email at 6:45 a.m. the following morning, and told me come in 15 minutes before they were scheduled to open.When I arrived he immediately knew who I was and went right to work accessing my situation. To my surprise, within a matter of 30 minutes the situation was resolved.His staff was very friendly and cordial. I highly recommend this office for all of your dental and partial needs.And as a result of his courteous, prompt and professional service he gain me as a new patient.
Dr. Tower is the best. This dentist office is not just for patients who have been visiting them for years, but is great for new patients. The office is clean and easy to get to. Parking is free and ample. If you have been visiting the doc for years or are new to the office you will find no better dentist.
Forest is a friendly, knowledgeable Dentist that I have been coming to for more than 20 years. I would highly recommend to anyone to use his service.
Dr. Tower is awesome. He made my teeth beautiful. They are movie star white and I get compliments all the time on my teeth. He made it easy to pay and with his flexible schedule I was able to have the teeth of my dreams. Thank you so much!
Ive been going to Dr. Tower my whole life - that includes making the drive up from Champaign-Urbana twice yearly for 4 years, and the drive down from Lakeview for 5 years. Hes exactly what a dentist should be - very professional and extremely good at what he does. Everyone on his staff is fantastic as well!
One of my front teeth broke off. Dr. Forrest Tower made an appointment for me the same day I called him. Within an hour, he worked on the tooth and repaired it to match my other teeth perfectly. It was painless and affordable. I told Dr. Forrest that he was a genius. I would recommend him to anyone who needs dental work.
Been with Dr. Tower for 30 years and never had a bad experience. Professional, friendly and honest. HIGHLY Recommend.
I have been going here several years now and have had nothing but awesome experiences! Dr. Tower and staff are all super friendly and great people, and my visits are always quick, thorough, and at a great price. Place is super clean too!
Excellent dentist. Experience is always pleasant and professional.
Dr. Forrest will be my dentist for as long as he is practicing. I cannot put into words how amazing he is. His gentle nature and hands made my root canal rather painless. I would highly recommend him to anyone
This place has very professional and honest staff. The procedure was very swift and with ease, free of any pain and I was kept me updated of every step. The reminders for my appointments was very encouraging. I will be coming here again and again, and I highly recommended this place to anyone looking out for dental services.
Dr. Tower and his staff are wonderful. I have been a patient for about 14 years. I have had cleanings, filing and crowns - couldnt be happier with the services provided.
Dr. Tower is life! He is experienced, understanding, and thorough. I like that he lets me know what he is doing and why, while also making sure I was comfortable. I highly recommend him!

2022-06-10Highly recommend. I’ve been looking for a good dentist for going on 5 years and finally found one. Dr. Tower is very knowledgeable and really cares about your teeth. He took his time cleaning my teeth and was very professional. If your in need of a dentist just for check ups or if you have major dental issues he’s your guy!

Dr. Tower is always super nice and is very professional. I have been going here for years...I left another dentist for Dr. Tower and it was the best decision for me!

2021-12-15Highly recommend. Dr Tower is out of my insurances network and Id rather pay out of pocket to see him then to trust any other dentist. His work is far superior. Unlike so many other dentists he is always available I have any urgent matter. His staff also makes it a pleasurable experience.

2022-06-15I found Dr Forrest Tower when searching for a repair of my denture a few years ago. Dr Tower cared for my repair in a timely manner.When it was time for new dentures , I remembered Dr. Tower .I’m so happy and extremely satisfied with all the work and procedures performed. Also Dr Tower and Kelli the office manager are professional, friendly and the patient customer care is outstanding. I tell everyone who says they’re looking for a dentist to use Dr. Tower and they’ll never regret it.

2022-02-13Dr. Tower is a great guy. He spends as much time as needed prior to work, during, and post care. He has a hands on approach that you dont often find today, especially when visiting the corporate dental practices that have popped up everywhere. No up selling cosmetic products and recommending questionable procedures. If he tells you that you need something, you can feel confident that, for your health, it is needed. I drive over an hour each way because I have confidence in his care.

2022-02-24I actually enjoy going to the dentist now! Felicia makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Cleanings are so quick and efficient! Dr Tower is knowledgeable and the best… I felt virtually no pain when I had many novacaine shots due to his technique and care. Kelly is so warm and welcoming. Love their reminder texts for upcoming appts too. 10/10 love coming here!!

2022-07-19I would give 10 stars if I could. Im a over the road truck driver so Ive been to a lot of different dentists since I only get home about once every two months and none have come close to the quality, professionalism and the caring that Dr.Tower and his staff have for their patients. I would highly recommend!! They are the best❤️
