Meet Dr. John Zanoni
Dr John S. Zanoni
The ability to put a beautiful smile on someone’s face is very rewarding. As an orthodontist, I get to do that every day! Each patient I see is a wonderful and unique individual, and I cherish the relationships I am able to build while they’re with us. Everyone has a story to tell, and I learn something new and exciting from them every day.
Education and Experience
My journey toward being an orthodontist began by receiving a high quality education where I gained the knowledge and hands-on training needed to build a successful practice.
- Fenwick High School, 1975
- Undergraduate degree – Loyola University of Chicago, 1979
- Doctorate of Dental Surgery – Loyola University School of Dentistry, 1983
- Orthodontic Certification – Loyola University of Dentistry/Orthodontics, 1985
Continuing education is vital to staying up-to-date with all the newest and best orthodontic technology and treatment options. I welcome the opportunity to learn as much as I can and go beyond the minimum requirements to make certain that I am current with all new findings in the study of orthodontics, whether on the science side of treatment or improved materials. I want each patient to know that they are getting the best, most efficient, safe mode of treatment at my office.

In the Office
My staff members and I have been a team for so long that we consider one another to be more like family. They all have years of experience and some of them have been working in orthodontics longer than I have! My staff makes our office an enthusiastic and positive experience for everyone. They are here to welcome patients into our orthodontic family and to make them feel at home.
Family Life
I have lived in Illinois my entire life and currently reside in LaGrange Park with my wife, Maureen, and our children, Valerie, Hilary, Emily, and Eddie. My favorite leisure activity is spending time with my family but I also love being outdoors, whether I am boating, fishing, or hunting. I also enjoy traveling to new and exciting places.
Being an active member of my community has always been one of my priorities. I am a member of numerous organizations, including the Kiwanis and the Des Plaines Chamber of Commerce, and participate in many local sporting clubs, fine art, and theater groups.
