About This Provider

Dr. Sonia Belani is a board-certified periodontist serving patients across the western Chicago suburbs from multiple Elite Dental Specialists locations. She holds a Doctor of Dental Surgery and a Master of Oral Sciences, both earned at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where she also served as Chief Resident during her specialty training. Dr. Belani is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology, a credential requiring rigorous independent evaluation that fewer than half of practicing periodontists pursue. She spent six years as an assistant professor at UIC College of Dentistry and continues to lecture there when her schedule allows. A past president of the Illinois Society of Periodontists, she graduated cum laude with distinction from Boston University before returning to her hometown of Aurora, Illinois to build her clinical career. Patients describe her as gentle, personally accessible, and thorough when planning complex cases involving bone loss and implant coordination. Her ongoing academic involvement means her clinical decisions reflect the current state of periodontal science.
