OUR CERTIFIED DOCTOR

Dr. Mark Kuchta

Dr. Mark Kuchta, D.D.S. understands that dentistry extends far beyond teeth—it is integral to whole-body health. With a deep commitment to improving patients' well-being, he has dedicated hundreds of continuing education hours to the study of sleep-disordered breathing, temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD), and their systemic effects. His expertise in neuromuscular dentistry allows him to diagnose and treat complex cases, providing life-changing solutions for patients suffering from chronic pain, airway issues, and sleep disturbances.

Dr. Kuchta is an active member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, the International College of Craniomandibular Orthopedics, and the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health, further solidifying his role as a leader in airway-focused and neuromuscular dentistry. His interdisciplinary approach ensures that patients receive comprehensive, cutting-edge care that not only enhances their smiles but also improves their sleep, function, and overall health.

Dr. Kuchta is one of the few dentists in the region who utilizes the advanced K7 Evaluation System, a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool that measures jaw tracking, muscle activity, and bite force to determine the most accurate and effective treatment path for TMD and sleep apnea.

Whether crafting a beautiful smile or helping a patient regain comfort and restful sleep, Dr. Kuchta provides care with compassion in a welcoming environment that fosters trust and alleviates apprehension.

Outside the office, Dr. Kuchta enjoys spending time in the great outdoors with his wife, two daughters, and son, whether fishing, camping, or boating. A passionate sports fan, he closely follows Chicago’s professional teams.

“At the heart of our mission is a commitment to being a trusted partner in our patients’ health care journey, striving to enrich lives. Our purpose is to deliver services and education that enhance the understanding of complete health dentistry and its vital connection to overall health and wellness.”
