About This Provider

Dr. Kelley Gyllenhaal holds a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) and a Master of Science (MS), the credential combination that defines a formally trained orthodontic specialist. After completing dental school to earn the DDS, she pursued a structured, university-based orthodontic residency to earn the MS degree. That residency is where orthodontists develop expertise in the biology of tooth movement, the mechanics of bite correction, and the management of facial growth patterns across all age groups. The MS also signals training in diagnosing problems that extend beyond crooked teeth — issues involving jaw alignment, skeletal development, and the relationship between teeth and surrounding bone structure. Dr. Gyllenhaal practices in Glenview, Illinois, where patients across the North Shore area can access specialty-level orthodontic care. The combination of a DDS and an MS places her in a distinct category from general dentists who offer orthodontic services as a secondary part of a broader scope of practice.
