About This Provider
Dr. Timothy Sanders is a D.D.S. and orthodontist at Lakemoor Dental and Orthodontics, serving patients across seven Illinois locations including Lakemoor, McHenry, Arlington Heights, and Elk Grove Village. A former Illinois State Scholar, Dr. Sanders graduated at the top of his class from Loyola University's dental school and was then selected for Loyola's competitive post-doctoral orthodontic residency, a distinction reserved for the program's strongest graduates. He grew up in Libertyville, Illinois, and has built his clinical focus around treating children, teens, and adults throughout the communities where he was raised. Dr. Sanders works from a light, constant force philosophy: orthodontic appliances that gradually guide teeth into proper position by gently reshaping the surrounding bone over time. Lakemoor Dental and Orthodontics supports this approach with AI-assisted charting, 3D cone beam CT imaging, and a Dandy intraoral scanner for precise digital impressions. Dr. Sanders holds that healthy teeth can be moved at any age, and no patient has ever missed the right time to start.
