About This Provider
Dr. Maria Karras is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Advanced Center for Oral Surgery and Dental Implants in Morton Grove, Illinois. Surgery runs in her family: she was born eight weeks after her father, Dr. Spiro Karras, began his OMS residency in Boston, and she started working in his practice at age 18. That early exposure set her on the path to surgery. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago, her Doctor of Dental Medicine from UIC College of Dentistry, and completed her OMS residency at UIC. Dr. Karras performs the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery, including dental implants, wisdom tooth removal, bone grafting, All-on-4 restorations, zygomatic implants, and facial cosmetic procedures. Patients consistently describe her as calm, thorough, and skilled at reducing procedure pain. She explains each step before and during treatment, a quality that patients with dental anxiety especially value. Her lifelong connection to the specialty, combined with rigorous university training, makes her a trusted resource for complex surgical care in the Chicago north suburbs.
