About This Provider
Dr. Mark Baker, DDS is an endodontist and clinical associate professor in the Department of Endodontics at the University of Illinois-Chicago (UIC) College of Dentistry. His academic role places him at the front line of endodontic research and emerging techniques, including regenerative endodontics, vital pulp cryotherapy, and minimally invasive approaches to saving natural teeth. Dr. Baker has published on advanced endodontic topics, giving his patients access to evidence-based protocols that many private practices have not yet adopted. His focus on contemporary pain management means patients undergoing root canal therapy experience less discomfort before, during, and after treatment. By combining active clinical teaching with direct patient care, Dr. Baker brings the rigors of university-level endodontics to every procedure he performs. His work on vital pulp therapy, pulpotomies, and regenerative techniques reflects a philosophy of preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible. Patients who choose Dr. Baker gain a clinician whose methods are tested in the classroom, validated in peer-reviewed literature, and applied chair-side with precision.
