A Place Bourbonnais Families Have Trusted for Generations
Some of our favorite moments happen right in the waiting room: a grandparent checking in for a cleaning, a parent bringing in a toddler for a first visit, a teenager who has been coming here since they were small. Many of our patients have been with us for years, and some families are now on their second and third generations with our practice.
That kind of trust is something we never take for granted. As a women-owned, owner-led practice, Bourbonnais Family Dental is guided every day by Dr. Brittany Rashid, who leads patient care herself and stays involved from one visit to the next. We’re a local practice through and through, and we’re here to care for this community for many years to come.

Meet Dr. Brittany Rashid
Dr. Brittany Rashid is the owner of Bourbonnais Family Dental and the dentist you’ll see when you visit. She trained at the University of Michigan and is an Invisalign Gold Provider, bringing strong clinical skills and a genuine interest in helping every patient reach their goals.
What patients mention most, though, is how she makes them feel. Dr. Rashid has a gift for putting nervous patients at ease. She takes time to listen, explains what she sees in plain terms, and never rushes or judges. It’s a big reason our practice has earned more than 600 five-star reviews, and why so many anxious patients find us through the words of others who once felt the same way.

Care That Meets You Where You Are
Judgment-Free Care
It doesn’t matter how long it’s been or what you’re worried we might find. We focus on where you are today and what we can do together from here. No lectures, ever.
Care for the Whole Family
From cleanings and checkups to restorative and cosmetic care, we treat patients of all ages in one familiar, comfortable office.
Personal, Owner-Led Care
As the practice owner, Dr. Rashid is personally invested in every patient who walks through our doors. You’ll find a team that takes the time to get to know you and your family, visit after visit.
Comfort for Anxious Patients
Dental anxiety is more common than you might think, and you’re not alone. We move at your pace, explain each step before it happens, and check in with you along the way.
Dental Care for Kids, From the First Tooth
Many parents are surprised to learn that a child’s first dental visit should happen by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. Starting early helps kids get comfortable with the dentist long before they ever need treatment.
Our team includes assistants who previously worked at a pediatric dental office, so they know just how to help little ones feel relaxed, and even a little excited, about their visits.
Your child’s first visit is all about comfort and education:
- A quick, gentle look at your child's teeth and mouth
- Hands-on tips for brushing and flossing at home
- Guidance on toothpaste and healthy habits
- Time to explore the office and meet our team
- A certificate to celebrate their very first visit
We call it a happy visit, and it’s the first step toward a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Easy to Find, Easy to Visit
We want every patient to be able to get in the door and settled comfortably.
- On-site parking, including an accessible parking space
- Ramp access to the building
- ADA-accessible treatment rooms
We’ve had the privilege of caring for patients who are blind and patients who use wheelchairs. If there’s anything that would make your visit easier, just let us know when you call, and we’ll be ready for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you treat anxious patients?
Yes, and it’s one of the things we’re known for. Many of our patients choose us after reading reviews from others who were nervous too. Dr. Rashid and our team go at your pace, explain what’s happening, and make sure you feel comfortable before moving forward.
I haven't been to the dentist in years. Is that okay?
Absolutely. We regularly welcome patients who haven’t seen a dentist in 10 years or more, and there’s no judgment here. Here’s what to expect at your first visit:
- Meet Dr. Rashid, who will talk with you about your concerns and goals.
- Take X-rays so we can get a clear picture of your oral health.
- See our hygiene team for a cleaning.
If your gums need extra attention, we’ll explain what we see, walk you through your options, and answer your questions so you can make decisions with confidence.
Do you see kids? When should my child's first visit be?
Yes, we love seeing kids! Their first visit should happen by their first birthday or when their first tooth comes in. That visit focuses on getting comfortable in the office, learning healthy habits at home, and a gentle check of their teeth.
Do you offer emergency appointments?
Yes. If you have a dental emergency, call us at 815-939-2520. We’ll do our best to see you as soon as our schedule allows.
Is your office accessible?
Yes. We have on-site parking with an accessible space, ramp access, and ADA-accessible treatment rooms. Let us know about any needs when you call, and we’ll make sure you’re comfortable.
