Hello world! My name is Dr. Anthony M. Hinton, born in Arcola, MS. I went to school in Hollandale, MS, where I graduated in 1978. Afterward, I volunteered to serve in the U.S. Army. After serving my country, I derived an inspiration for dentistry. So, upon leaving the service, I set out to begin my career in dentistry. I enrolled into Jackson State University in Jackson, MS, where I was a Biology, Pre-Dental major in 1980 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1985. Afterward, I enrolled into the Master's degree program in Biology. Having already applied for dental school, I was accepted into several dental schools before completing my Master's program. Since dentistry was my sole interest, I chose to attend the Dental School at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, TN Fall 1987. I competed the Doctorate of Dental Surgery degree program in 1991. After school, I moved to Chicago, IL to begin private practice in General Dentistry. After a few years of private practice, I discovered that I have a true passion for dentistry. I knew this was my calling and I was born to do dentistry. While practicing, I have taken, and still continue to take, numerous continuing education courses to further enhance my expertise in dentistry. Now as a knowledgeable, trained clinician I have incorporated a number of dental specialty services to my practice to include Orthodontics, Oral Surgery, Implant placement, Endodontics, Pediatric Dentistry, Cosmetic Dentistry, Restorative and Removable Prosthodontics for Geriatric patients. My practice is truly a family dentistry practice, making my office a one-stop shop for all your dental needs. Visit me and my office staff at our current location here in Oak Park. See you soon!
