I had a wonderful experience at Affiliated Dental on Irving Park. Dr. Mary is excellent—she took the time to explain everything clearly, was very patient with me, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire visit. She is also very gentle, which makes a big difference when having dental work done. I received two crowns today, and they look and feel perfect. I’m extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend Dr. Mary to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and skilled dentist.

Raj, the new hygienist, did an excellent job cleaning my teeth. I drink a lot of coffee, and he was incredibly thorough in removing the staining while leaving my teeth looking and feeling fresh and clean. My exam with Dr. Bessy was as thorough as always, and the entire front desk team continues to be friendly, professional, and helpful. Affinity provides an outstanding dental experience from start to finish. I highly recommend them!
The staff here are always friendly and welcoming. I’ve been a patient for years because Dr. Besse does excellent work, and Tiffany is hands down the best dental hygienist I’ve ever had. I see her twice a year, and she’s always thorough, professional, and caring. Today my cleaning was done by someone else, Lily, and unfortunately it wasn’t the same experience. Based on my years of visits, I highly recommend Dr. Besse and Tiffany—they’re the reason I keep coming back.
I couldn’t be happier with this dental office! From the moment you walk in, the entire team is so welcoming and friendly — it truly makes going to the dentist a pleasant experience. One of the things I appreciate most is how accommodating they are with scheduling. They’ve made it so easy for my whole family to come in at the same time, which is a huge help for busy parents. The hygienists are incredibly thorough and always take their time explaining what they’re doing and why, which makes everyone feel comfortable and informed. Dr. K is extremely professional and detail-oriented. She takes the time to carefully explain everything about my dental health and any treatment recommendations, and I always feel like I’m in great hands. We are so grateful to have found such a caring, organized, and patient-focused dental team. Highly recommend!
I can’t say enough positive things about the Affinity Dental practice. Our whole family has been going here for several years. The Dentists and hygienists are highly professional and do excellent work. Their technology is the best available and they provide sound, trustworthy advice. Even the front desk staff is very professional.
