About This Provider
Dr. Michael Weinberg, DMD is the founder and owner of Prairie Orthodontics, with more than 21 years of experience treating patients across Gurnee, IL and Kenosha, WI. Growing up alongside his father's orthodontic practice on Long Island, Dr. Weinberg developed a firsthand understanding of the specialty long before completing his clinical training. He is an extensively trained and certified provider of Prairie Clear Aligners powered by uLab technology, individually calibrating each aligner set to a patient's specific dental anatomy. Dr. Weinberg's clinical scope extends beyond alignment to include TMJ treatment with custom appliances, dentofacial orthopedics for growing children starting at age 5, and a full teeth whitening program. Prairie Orthodontics operates an on-site laboratory, allowing retainers, trays, and appliances to be fabricated without outside delays. Dr. Weinberg is known for explaining complex treatment plans in plain English, involving every patient in their treatment decisions, and structuring care to complete treatment in fewer appointments than conventional orthodontic timelines typically require.
