About This Provider

Dr. Angela Wanying Lu is a board-certified orthodontist and American Board of Orthodontics diplomate at AllCare Orthodontic Center in Chicago's South Loop and Chinatown neighborhood. She earned her DMD from the University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine and completed a three-year orthodontic residency at the University of Illinois-Chicago College of Dentistry, where she also earned a Master's Degree in Oral Sciences. In 2018, the American Association of Orthodontists recognized her research on accelerated tooth movement with the Thomas Graber Research Award, one of the specialty's most competitive scientific honors. With more than 10 years of clinical experience, Dr. Lu treats the full range of orthodontic complexity, from early interceptive cases in children as young as seven to interdisciplinary surgical cases coordinated with oral surgeons and periodontists. She is fluent in Mandarin Chinese and regularly sees patients from Chicago's Mandarin-speaking community. Her diagnostic process uses digital 3D scanning, computerized treatment simulation, and cephalometric analysis to build a precise, individualized plan before a single bracket is placed.
