About This Provider

Dr. David Hanson holds dual degrees in medicine and dentistry from Creighton University and earned Diplomate status from the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the specialty's highest credential. He founded and directs his Chicago Lincoln Park practice while also serving as Director of Oral Surgery in the Division of Dentistry at Advocate Illinois Masonic Hospital, where he instructs and supervises post-graduate dental residents. This blend of private practice, hospital-based surgery, and academic teaching keeps Dr. Hanson at the forefront of the full surgical spectrum: routine wisdom tooth removals, complex dental implant procedures, bone regeneration, and demanding facial trauma cases including complete orbital fracture reconstruction. Patients consistently describe his approach as confident yet easy-going, which helps even highly anxious patients feel calm before and during surgery. He provides a detailed recovery plan after every procedure, reducing uncertainty during the healing process. Dr. Hanson is a member of the American Medical Association, the Illinois State Dental Association, and the Chicago Dental Association.
