About Us | Smile More Today

From the moment you walk into Smile More Today, you'll know this isn't your typical dental office. Our state-of-the-art facility in Vernon Hills was custom designed by the nation's leading dental design firm to create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a premier health spa than a dental practice.

Since 2010, Dr. Amit Kumar and our highly trained team have been delivering "Five Star" customer service and exceptional dental care in a modern, tranquil environment. We combine cutting-edge technology, the highest quality materials, and advanced minimally invasive techniques to provide you with naturally beautiful, healthy smiles that last a lifetime.

OUR STORY

A Vision for Excellence in Dental Care

Smile More Today was founded by Dr. Amit Kumar with a clear vision: to create a dental experience that goes far beyond traditional dentistry. After graduating from the University of Illinois College of Dentistry in 1995, Dr. Kumar recognized that patients deserved more than just clinical excellence—they deserved an environment and experience that made them actually look forward to their dental visits.

In 2010, this vision became reality when Smile More Today opened its doors at 250 Center Drive in Vernon Hills. The practice was designed in collaboration with the top dental design firm in the country, ensuring that every aspect of the facility prioritized patient comfort and experience.

Where Dental Excellence Meets Spa-Like Comfort

Our philosophy is built on a simple but powerful principle: exceptional dental care should be delivered in an environment that promotes relaxation and well-being.

Patient-Centered Care

We understand dental anxiety because Dr. Kumar himself has experienced it as a patient. He's had fillings, teeth whitening, orthodontics (twice!), amalgam removal, and now wears a sleep appliance. This personal perspective shapes how we treat every patient—with empathy, patience, and understanding.

Education and Empowerment

We believe informed patients make better decisions. That's why we take time to educate you about your oral health, explain all treatment options, and ensure you feel confident in your choices.

Lifelong Relationships

We don't just fix teeth—we build lasting relationships with our patients. Many have been with us since 2010, and we're honored to be trusted with their care.

State-of-the-Art Technology in a Spa-Like Setting

Award-Winning Cosmetic Expertise

Dr. Kumar is an experienced, award-winning cosmetic dentist who has completed thousands of smile makeovers using veneers, implants, braces, aligners, and other cosmetic procedures.
