About This Provider
Dr. Gary A. Hosters is a periodontal specialist and the founder of Norwood Park Periodontics & Implants in Chicago, Illinois. A lifelong Chicago resident, Dr. Hosters earned his dental degree in 1987 and an advanced surgical degree in 1989, both from Loyola University and Loyola Medical Dental Center. Over more than 30 years of specialized practice, he has successfully placed over 15,000 dental implants, a volume that reflects the depth of surgical experience he brings to complex cases. He holds Fellowship status with the International Team of Implantology and lectures to dental professionals nationally and internationally on periodontal therapy, regeneration, implantology, cosmetic surgical procedures, and nonsurgical therapy. Dr. Hosters approaches every case with a holistic, biological philosophy focused on restoring oral health as conservatively as anatomy allows. Patients consistently describe his explanations as thorough and his recommendations as honest, and report that complex periodontal procedures are far more comfortable than anticipated. Advanced diagnostics, including 3D CBCT imaging and Oral DNA Lab PCR testing, allow him to build treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique bacterial profile and individual risk factors.
