Peace of mind with precision Dentistry

At Alto Dental, advanced technology meets the kind of care that actually makes sense for your day. Led by Dr. Hisham Gharib, our Wheeling dental office brings together precise digital diagnostics, same-day treatment options, convenient scheduling, and a calm “tell, show, do” approach that keeps you informed from the first scan to the final result.

Meet Your Dentist

Dr. Hisham Gharib, DDS

Dr. Hisham Gharib brings 19 years of clinical experience and a deeply detail-oriented approach to every visit. A graduate of Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine, he completed advanced clinical training in operative, esthetic, and digital dentistry.

Today, he also serves as a clinical assistant professor in restorative dentistry at the University of Illinois Chicago, where he teaches the next generation of dentists. That academic mindset shapes the way he cares for patients at Alto Dental: with precision, patience, and clear explanations that help you feel confident about your options.

His philosophy is simple: tell, show, do. He explains what he sees, shows you the details through scans, X-rays, and visuals, then walks you through treatment step by step.

Smarter, Streamlined Care

For the smiles we see every day

From routine cleanings to same-day crowns and urgent dental visits, our services are designed to meet the needs of busy families, working professionals, and patients who want thorough answers before moving forward.

Cleanings & Preventive Care

Stay ahead of dental issues with thorough cleanings, exams, digital X-rays, and oral cancer screenings. We focus on early detection, clear education, and a strong hygiene foundation for long-term oral health.

Same-Day Dental Crowns

With digital scanning and Sprintray technology, we can design and deliver natural-looking crowns, inlays, and onlays in a single visit. No messy impressions. No temporary crown. No weeks of waiting.

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal treatment should be precise, comfortable, and affordable. Using a dental microscope for enhanced visibility, Dr. Gharib provides thorough care designed to relieve pain and help save your natural tooth.

Invisalign

Straighten your smile with clear, removable aligners planned through digital iTero scanning. Invisalign is a discreet option for teens and adults who want confident results without traditional brackets and wires.

Emergency Dentistry

Tooth pain can’t always wait. If you’re dealing with a dental emergency, call our office and we’ll work to see you as soon as possible, often the same day.

Why Alto Dental

The details matter here

At Alto Dental, we believe patients make better decisions when they can actually see and understand what’s happening. That’s why we’ve built our practice around advanced diagnostics, thoughtful education, and treatment plans that are clearly explained before anything begins.

Dr. Hisham Gharib is such a great doctor. Very thoughtful, pain free experience. I have dental anxiety, but I honestly can see myself coming back for all my regular cleanings. No more cavities, and a new crown. Thanks Alto Dental, glad I found you.

Had a great experience at Alto Dental. The doctor was extremely professional, patient, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire visit. The front desk staff and assistants were all very welcoming, helpful, and respectful from the moment I walked in. Everything was explained clearly, the office was clean and organized, and the whole team genuinely cared about making the experience smooth and stress-free. Definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a dental office with amazing staff and quality care.
