AIRE Dental Group: Our Purpose. Our Promise. Our Story

AIRE Dental Group carries a strong legacy in treating TMJ disorders. Before assuming a leadership role, Dr. Amiran spent several years practicing as an associate dentist, gaining valuable experience and refining his skills. In November 2023, he proudly joined AIRE Dental Group, continuing its commitment to excellence while expanding the practice’s focus on functional, TMJ, and airway-centered dentistry, as well as patient-centered care. Dr. Amiran’s vision has been to grow AIRE Dental Group into a specialty dental group where advanced technology is seamlessly combined with a personalized, compassionate approach, a place where precision dentistry meets genuine connection, and patients feel heard, understood, and truly cared for.

At AIRE Dental Group, our ultimate mission is to restore health, balance, and confidence by addressing not just the teeth, but the complex relationship between the mouth, jaw, airway, and body. We strive to elevate dental care into a comprehensive wellness experience that enhances both function and quality of life.

Our philosophy centers around integrative and functional dentistry, treating the root cause, not just the symptoms. We believe that optimal oral health is deeply connected to posture, breathing, and systemic health. Every treatment plan is guided by thorough diagnostics, patient education, and collaboration with other healthcare providers.

At AIRE Dental GRoup, we focus on TMJ therapy, functional and airway-focused dentistry, combining advanced imaging (CBCT, MRI) with precision-guided occlusal therapy, Botox application, and customized appliance therapy. This comprehensive approach allows us to treat chronic jaw pain, headaches, and sleep-disordered breathing with remarkable outcomes.

We take a whole-patient approach at AIRE Dental Group, listening deeply, explaining every step, and empowering our patients with knowledge. We prioritize comfort, communication, and individualized care over quick fixes or volume-driven dentistry.

Every day brings a new opportunity to make a difference. Our mornings begin with team huddles to align on patient goals, followed by a variety of cases, from complex TMJ rehabilitation to family care visits. While we follow structured systems, no two days are alike, and that’s what keeps our work meaningful and dynamic.

We want every patient to know that at AIRE Dental Group, your comfort, confidence, and long-term health come first. We see every smile as part of a bigger story, your story, and we’re honored to be part of it.

Our proudest moments come from witnessing transformations, patients who once lived with chronic pain or self-consciousness regaining comfort, confidence, and joy. Seeing those results and knowing we helped change someone’s quality of life is our greatest reward.

Three Words to Describe AIRE Dental Group:
Compassionate. Innovative. Collaborative.

Trust begins with listening. We take the time to understand each patient’s story, explain diagnoses clearly, and never rush care. From our welcoming environment to our transparent communication, we aim to make every patient feel valued and respected.

Dr. Amiran often tells his patients that he’s not sure whether to call it a curse or a blessing, but he’s personally experienced TMJ pain and has been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Because of that, he deeply understands what his patients are going through, the discomfort, the frustration, and the impact it has on daily life. These personal experiences have shaped the way he approaches care. They’ve strengthened his empathy, heightened his attention to detail, and fueled his passion for helping others find lasting relief. Dr. Amiran has learned that healing is both clinical and emotional, patients need not only treatment, but understanding, compassion, and guidance throughout their journey.

Throughout Dr. Amiran’s dental journey leading up to AIRE Dental Group, he’s been fortunate to be involved in many community and volunteer initiatives. From delivering meals to patients with special needs to serving as a volunteer concierge at Northwestern Hospital, each experience deepened his understanding of compassion in care.

During his time as a research assistant in the Department of Periodontics at the University of Illinois at Chicago, he contributed to studies in tissue regeneration; an experience that strengthened his appreciation for the science behind healing.

Today, our team at AIRE Dental Group continues that spirit of service through local wellness and education events, offering oral health screenings and raising awareness about the vital connection between airway health and overall well-being. These experiences continually remind us that dentistry extends far beyond the chair; it’s a way to make a lasting difference in people’s lives and in our community.

Dentistry combines art, science, and human connection, it’s the perfect balance of precision and purpose. What motivates us at AIRE Dental Group daily is seeing lives improve through thoughtful, comprehensive care and being part of each patient’s journey toward health and confidence. In addition, to Dr. Amiran, life is like an occlusion. It’s all about equilibrium, balance, and harmony. That’s what he finds most fulfilling about treating TMJ disorders. Every joint he evaluates and treats feels like restoring harmony to the entire system. Helping patients find balance, both functionally and in how they feel, is what truly inspires him to work every day.
