Thornwood Family Dental is a locally owned practice built around honest, transparent care — with same-day emergency appointments, evening hours until 8 PM, and Saturday visits by appointment. Se habla español.
Your first visit includes a complete exam, digital X-rays, and one-on-one time with Dr. Zamir — so you leave with real answers, not a sales pitch.
South Elgin has plenty of dental chains. We're the other thing — a neighborhood practice where the doctor knows your name and your options are explained in plain language.
No corporate owners, no rotating providers. The same doctor cares for you at every visit.
Open five days with Tuesday evenings until 8 PM and Saturday appointments available.

Dr. Zamir grew up in Schaumburg, just a short drive from our office. Dental school and a hospital residency took her across the Midwest, and then she came home to care for the community she knows best.
Her care starts with listening. She wants to understand what is bothering you, what you are hoping for, and what makes sense for your life and your budget. Every option gets explained in plain language, and nothing moves forward until you feel good about the plan. Outside the office you will find her traveling, tending her garden, and practicing her Spanish. She speaks fluent English and Urdu.
We're in-network with most major PPO plans and we verify your benefits before treatment, so you get accurate numbers up front. No insurance? No problem — our costs are fair and flexible financing is available, including CareCredit®.
You'll find us on Silver Glen Road in South Elgin — with easy parking and a coffee bar waiting.
