Dr. Johdan did a deep dental clean before I had my braces installed, and she has done follow-​up work after I had them removed. As a result, my gums are in a lot better shape before, during and after braces.

I went to Dr, Jodhan today for the first time for a consultaion and she was very nice and explained everything. I go back fo see her in a couple weeks. I will recommend her. The receptionist is very nice. The office is clean. I am afraid of dentists and I have problems cause I am a gagger. I need teeth pulled and then i will need partial. And she will probably
do it.

I was searching for a periodontist to do gum grafting procedure for four of my teeth.
My regular dentist has recommended me to go to a periodontist in Evanston. He seems to be the doctor to go in Evaston. After consulting with him, I realized that not only he is out of my insurance network (which means I will most likely need to pay more), he also requires me to get a custom made guard for my gum grafting procedure. The guard will not be covered by insurance and has to be out of pocket.
I decided to seek a second opinion, so I came to Dr. Jodhan after finding her in my Metlife dental insurance provider list with exceptional Unilocal review. So I had my consultation with her at the beginning of January. Truthfully, I was really hesitant to move forward with the procedure since I heard several bad experience with gum grafting in general. Also I was told by the previous periodontist that the procedure will require me to avoid exercise for 2 weeks and be on limited diet for 2 weeks. It really put a negative feel in my heart to get this procedure done.
Thanks for my upcoming expiring medical spending account, I move fast to make appointment with the office in March and was able to schedule quickly within 10 days. I was nervous through the procedure (even though I grew up seeing dentist all my life with tons of procedure done in my life on my teeth). The procedure was about an hour and half (3 gum grafting) without any problems. To my amazement, the after surgery was much easier and not much pain. I was given three Motrin before the procedure but didn’t need any pain medication after at all through my recovery. I just went in for my suture removal yesterday. It looks like my gum is doing well. I will need to go back 2 weeks later for suture removal since one part of the gum is still «working» on itself.
A speical note, the instruction and care I was given was great. Dr. Jodhan was quick to reply for my question through text the night of my procedure when I wasn’t sure what to do with rinsing. I was able to exercise a few days after. I realized that my insurance only approved 2 of the three gums (since two were next to each other). Dr. Jodhan went ahead and did all three teeth even though she knows she is not paid for working on that extra part. I am so blown away with her service.
When I told my doctor friend why my procedure didn’t require any pain medication, she simply said that I must have a great surgeon. I totally agree!
I would totally recommend Dr. Jodhan for gum grafting procedure. The staffs were helpful for helping me with inisurance and understand my financial responsibility before the procedure. I have such an exceptional experience. Thank you, Unilocalers for sharing your experience so I can have a great experience for my first gum grafting!

Dr. Jodhan is as good as it gets. She performed three surgeries on me and each time was painless. She is gentle and always makes sure you are comfortable during the procedure. Each procedure explained in detail and she always made sure you understood what she was going to do. I always received a follow-​up phone call which is very comforting, quite reassuring that she really cares about you. I highly recommend her.

I went to Dr Jodhan for an oral implant. She made the entire process very easy for me. After each surgery, which there were three, she called me personally afterwards to check up. During the surgery she played music and I felt very relaxed. She is also located in the old orchard mall, so my wife was able to do some shopping while I was getting work done. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get a similar surgery done.

I had an old root canal that went bad. I needed a bone graft and an implant. I was referred to Dr Johdan by my dentist.
Dr Johdan took the time to explain the entire process (which would take place over a few months). She answered all of my questions. The office was extremely clean and state-​of-​the-​art. The whole process went smoothly. I highly recommend her.
Her office is actually within the Westfield (Old Orchard) Shopping Center! You can get your dental work done and get some shopping done right after!

I was told several years ago that my missing front tooth could not be replaced with an implant, too small, too risky. My dentist referred me to Dr. Johdan after explaining my past frustrations. She was extremely pleasant, skilled and straightforward about how she would resolve my specific issue. After a skilled bone graft, precise implant placement i now have a beautiful incisor. The entire procedure was virtually painless and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I have a very low threshold of pain. That’s one of the major reasons why I don’t like going to see the dentist. Finally, circumstances had forced me to finally go get my teeth checked out. I found Dr. Jodhan from all the health review websites, saying that she was the best periodonist in the Skokie area. I had such high expectations, but I was hesitant, since usually I always leave disappointed. I made an appointment with Ms. Marianna (sp?), the receptionist, and she is so incredibly sweet and nice. It was easy breezy. When I went in, Dr. Jodhan was warm and friendly, but she was also extremely knowledgeable, professional, as well as extremely thorough. I also like the fact that she is very sanitary-​conscious and organized, and you can tell by seeing that her treatment area is clean and sterile. She was the first periodontist who gave me a full and complete comprehensive exam that was more thorough than the other periodontists I’ve seen in the past. She is also pretty gentle and asked if I was doing alright throughout the whole procedure. She is informative, answers all your questions, and never shames you or anything — I am glad that I found Dr. Jodhan, and I really recommend anyone in the North Shore area to check her out. I look forward to being Dr. Jodhan’s patient for the long-​term, even if I have to take frequent trips from VA to see her!

Dr. Johdan was a caring provider. I visited her office several times for an implant. She did not just put in the implant, she had me do additional tests to insure that was the best solution. She took time to explain everything to me and image sure I understood, also giving me contact information in case I had any problems after I left the office. She made the implant process easy! If you want the best dental care I recommend Dr. Johdan without hesitation.

Dr. Johdan is an excellent implant dentist!!! She is thorough– provides a great explanation of each step that will be taken to complete the work. Dr. Johdan has wonderful patient contact.

I went to Dr. Jodhan for an extraction and bone graft. Her attentiveness was outstanding and she was concerned for my comfort throughout the procedure. I appreciated her ability to convey information regarding what to expect during the process and after completion. The results have been great so far, the area has healed nicely and I shall have follow-​up work done. I hope everyone who has a dental issue requiring expertise gets to work with a specialist as high caliber as she is.

We were patients of Dr. Nikisha Jodhan from 2005 to 2007 at the prestigious NYU College of Dentistry, Department of Periodontics, post graduate clinic.

With Dr. J, we experienced some of the best dental care we’ve ever received. She performed 9 implants, 3 extractions, sinus lift and bone grafts on Mel as well as prophylactic deep cleaning. I received bone graft, and an implant as well. As a result of her great work, we’ve been told we smile a lot more these days.
Dr J displayed a confidence and caring well beyond what one would expect of a graduate student in such a hectic environment.
While other doctors performed procedures adequately, Dr. Jodhan went one step beyond: She evaluated all the available options for treatment and worked with us to determine the best possible outcome both short term and long term.
As a doctor, she is not only professional and very skilled (with a very gentle touch), but always caring as well. She is mindful that periodontics can be painful and very time consuming so she planned her procedures to minimize both pain and time spent in the chair.
We have recommended her to family and friends in the Chicago area telling them she’s worth the trip from Forest Hills, NY to Skokie, IL
