About This Provider
Dr. Stephen M. Weeks is a board-eligible endodontist and Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry, where he treats patients, trains future dentists, and conducts active research in root canal therapy and dental pain management. His academic preparation includes a Bachelor of Science in Dentistry, a Doctor of Dental Surgery, and a specialty certificate in endodontics, all from UIC, complemented by a general practice residency at Northwestern University. Dr. Weeks pursues board eligibility with the American Board of Endodontics, a voluntary credential requiring rigorous case documentation and examination that reflects the highest commitment to specialty standards. His published research covers electronic canal length determination, canal preparation techniques, orofacial pain diagnosis, and pharmacology, giving him clinical reasoning that extends well beyond routine specialty practice. Patients credit Dr. Weeks with resolving tooth pain that went undiagnosed elsewhere, and they describe his explanations as clear and his approach as calming at every stage of care. He holds membership in the American Association of Endodontists, the Chicago Dental Society, and the Edgar D. Coolidge Endodontic Study Club.
