About This Provider

Dr. Amer Shammaa, DDS, MS, is the founder of Algonquin Orthodontics in Lake in the Hills, Illinois. He earned his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the University of Minnesota and his Master of Science in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics from West Virginia University, where he trained under some of the best orthodontists in the country. That advanced specialty preparation gives him the ability to treat a full spectrum of cases, from standard braces and Invisalign to complex work involving TADs (temporary anchorage devices), lingual braces, Wilcodontics, and coordination of orthognathic surgical cases. Algonquin Orthodontics holds Gold Invisalign Provider status, reflecting the clinical volume and advanced certification Dr. Shammaa brings to clear aligner treatment. His philosophy is straightforward: help every patient develop a lifelong smile that builds confidence and makes daily life more comfortable. He combines the latest orthodontic technology with a personal, relationship-focused care model, using 3D digital imaging and digital treatment planning so patients know exactly what to expect before treatment begins. Dr. Shammaa is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists and the American Dental Association.
