About This Provider

Dr. Nicholas Zawada, DDS, MPH, practices oral and maxillofacial surgery at Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Chicago, serving patients at offices in Orland Park, Oak Lawn, the South Loop, Midway, and Burr Ridge. His dual credentials, a dental surgery degree paired with a Master of Public Health, reflect a surgeon trained not just in operative technique but in how surgical decisions affect long-term patient health. As part of a multidisciplinary team of eight oral surgeons, Dr. Zawada handles the full scope of oral and maxillofacial procedures: robotic-guided implant placement using the YOMI system, wisdom tooth extraction, complex bone grafting, corrective jaw surgery, and TMJ disorder care. Patients consistently highlight his calm communication style, noting that he explains each step of a procedure before it begins and manages anxiety with skill. His implant cases have drawn specific praise for minimal discomfort and strong healing outcomes. He also offers non-opioid post-surgical pain management using Exparel, providing patients who want to avoid narcotic medications a meaningful alternative during recovery.
