Oral Surgeon in Oakbrook Terrace, IL
Horizon OMS of Chicago is a full-scope oral and maxillofacial surgery practice in nearby Lombard — a short drive north of Oakbrook Terrace — providing surgical care for wisdom teeth, dental implants, urgent extractions, bone grafting, IV sedation, TMJ conditions, corrective jaw surgery, oral pathology, and advanced implant reconstruction.
Oral surgery care for Oakbrook Terrace patients
Our office at 6 E Saint Charles Rd in Lombard is about 3 miles north of Oakbrook Terrace — typically an 8 to 12 minute drive via Butterfield Road (IL-56) or York Road. The office is convenient for patients living near Drury Lane, the Oakbrook Terrace Tower, or the 22nd Street commercial corridor.
Many Oakbrook Terrace patients reach us through referrals from their general dentist or orthodontist; others contact us directly for an urgent problem, a second opinion, or a more complex surgical plan. As a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Ali Al-Qudsi provides full-scope surgical care with careful diagnosis, modern imaging, and a clear explanation of options.
Our role is not to replace your routine dental care. We work as a surgical extension of your dentist's office, communicate findings clearly, and return you to your referring dentist for ongoing restorative and preventive care when appropriate.

Getting to our Lombard office from Oakbrook Terrace
From most of Oakbrook Terrace, the most direct route to our Lombard office is north on Butterfield Road (IL-56), then a short distance to St. Charles Road. The drive is typically 8–12 minutes.
For patients near the I-88 corridor or 22nd Street, taking York Road north to Roosevelt Road or St. Charles Road is a useful alternate, especially during midday traffic.
Oakbrook Terrace is not directly on the Metra Union Pacific West line, but the nearby Villa Park and Elmhurst stations are a short drive away if rail access is preferred. Our office is a short walk from the Lombard Metra station.
Why local access matters
Oral surgery is often time-sensitive. A painful tooth, facial swelling, or a wisdom tooth flare-up can change quickly. For Oakbrook Terrace patients, being only a few minutes away makes it easier to schedule an evaluation, review imaging, and coordinate treatment with your dentist.
Local access also matters after surgery. Follow-up visits, questions about healing, and coordination with your dentist are easier when the surgical office is nearby and communicates clearly.
