# Dentistry with a Smile: Joliet’s Hometown Dental Practice
## General Business Overview
Dentistry with a Smile began as a humble 450-square-foot office on Ruby Street in Joliet, where Dr. Thomas C. Zupancic started his career alongside an aging Depression-era dentist. From these modest beginnings, the practice has evolved into a comprehensive dental office committed to restoring and enhancing natural smiles using conservative, state-of-the-art procedures. Dr. Zupancic, a University of Illinois School of Dentistry graduate with certification in dental implants from Nobel Biocare, brings over four decades of experience to his patients. The practice offers everything from routine cleanings to advanced procedures like implant restoration, all aimed at creating beautiful, long-lasting smiles.
