About This Provider

Dr. Omar Souman, DMD, MS, is a board-certified orthodontist serving patients at DiFranco Orthodontics in Park Ridge, Illinois. He brings more than 12 years of dental experience to his specialty practice, having first trained as a general dentist before completing his MS in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics at Loma Linda University. His dental degree comes from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, one of the most rigorous dental programs in the country, grounding his clinical work in evidence-based training at the highest level. Board certification by the American Board of Orthodontists places Dr. Souman among a select group of practitioners who have voluntarily passed written and clinical examinations beyond standard licensure requirements. Patients consistently describe him as clear in his explanations, easy to talk to, and genuinely compassionate toward every age group he treats. He works with children as young as 6 through adults at any stage of life, building personalized treatment plans using digital scanners and 3D imaging to guide precision care. His treatment options span metal braces, clear ceramic alternatives, Invisalign and its age-specific variants, accelerated orthodontics, and surgical orthodontics for complex jaw alignment cases.
