Your Orthodontist Near North Side Chicago
Just north of the city, worth the trip
Smile Suite Orthodontics sits just north of Chicago city limits in Evanston — an easy trip for families from Rogers Park, Edgewater, West Ridge, Lincoln Square, and the rest of the North Side. Dr. Kimberly Mays Smith built the practice around a simple idea: orthodontic care should feel like it was designed around you, not around a schedule built to move as many patients through the door as possible.
That means a real consultation, not a sales pitch. It means appointments that start when they are supposed to. And it means treatment plans that consider your bite, your face, and your airway — not just whether your teeth are straight.
