Dr. Tahir is a highly experienced orthodontist with over 30 years in the field, having graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry for his undergraduate, doctorate, and orthodontics degrees. He is an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists, American Board of Orthodontics, and American College of Dentists, continuously pursuing education to offer the latest advancements in orthodontic care. The clinic prides itself on providing a "unique, upbeat, and lively atmosphere" and a personalized approach to orthodontic treatment. Cool Braces offers a wide array of services catering to children, teens, and adults. Their treatment options include various types of braces such as traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces, SPEED braces, self-ligating Damon® braces, WildSmiles® designer brackets, and SmartClip™ self-ligating braces. They are also a certified Invisalign provider, offering clear aligners for both teens and adults, utilizing advanced technology like the iTero® Digital Impression System for accurate and comfortable scans. Beyond aesthetic enhancements, Cool Braces focuses on the functional aspects of orthodontics, addressing issues like bad bites (malocclusions), crowded or spaced teeth, jaw pain (TMJ), and improving overall oral health, chewing, and even sleep quality. They offer early orthodontic treatment for children to intercept potential problems, as well as surgical orthodontics for more severe jaw abnormalities. Cool Braces emphasizes patient convenience, offering "Same Day Orthodontist" services where patients can often get their braces on during their very first visit.

The clinic's philosophy centers on creating "life-enhancing" smiles that boost confidence and open up new opportunities for their patients.

I’m really impressed with how great my teeth turned out after my time at Cool Braces Dr. Tahir and Dr. Lia are beasts at what they do ! The results exceeded my expectations my smile is now perfectly aligned, and my bite feels natural and comfortable. The treatment was well worth it, and I can see the incredible difference in both the appearance and function of my teeth.

It’s amazing how much of a transformation a little patience and professional care can make! Amazing staff as well. They make you feel like family great service and all a huge thank you to the staff as well. The Best orthodontist in the whole Chicagoland area!!

I'm thrilled to share my amazing experience with this incredible place! The staff are exceptionally kind and welcoming, creating a judgment-free environment that puts everyone at ease. My son and I are embarking on our orthodontic journey together, and it's been a mere three weeks, yet the transformation in my teeth is already noticeable.

It's a powerful reminder that it's never too late to take control of your smile, and the team here is more than happy to address any concerns you may have, offering expert guidance every step of the way.

I have been to both Berwyn and Oaklawn locations and every time I have had the same awesome results and service my family loves everyone there and the staff is over the top awesome and pleasant each and every time. At least for me the staff goes out of there way to accommodate any changes or appointments I need to fit my kids schedule. Besides the doctors the staff are the absolute best I have ever seen always smiling and all of them are very sweet ladies.

Thank you for working with us. The Howard Family (Kayla,Alexis and Rich)
