At Song Dental, Dr. Brian Song brings an extraordinary blend of clinical excellence, creativity, and heartfelt care to every patient he serves.   “I know my greater purpose as a dentist is to be an integral part of the restorative and healing process for my patients so that their health, quality of life, and confidence are the best they can be,” he reflects—a guiding philosophy that sets Dr. Song apart.

Dr. Song’s journey to his vocation began far from the dental chair. With dual degrees in Economics and Sociology from UCLA, followed by CPA certification and six years in corporate finance, he eventually felt a pull towards healthcare, specifically dentistry. Dentistry was and is a purpose-filled calling that utilized his calm/comforting temperament, meticulous attention to detail, and love for people.

He earned his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the University of Minnesota and further committed himself to lifelong, ongoing advanced clinical education and training.  He is proud to be a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD) – a designation only 6% of general dentists in North America have, highlighting his dedication and commitment to the latest techniques and best practices in dentistry.  He is also a Fellow of the International College of Oral Implantologists (FICOI), signifying his advanced  knowledge and experience in implant dentistry. Today, Dr. Song continues his next level graduate studies in comprehensive dentistry at the renowned Kois Center.

But clinical expertise is only one element of his mission. What truly sets Dr. Song apart is his dedication to compassionate, patient-centered care.  Patients consistently highlight his calm bedside manner and how he listens attentively, explains conditions thoroughly, and treats the whole person, never rushing the process. “Gentle,” “skilled,” and “passionate” are common qualities patients talk about when under the care of Dr. Song.

When you choose Dr. Brian Song, you’re choosing a dentist whose purpose carries through every personal interaction and thoughtful recommendation. His calling, integrity, and clinical excellence restore more than teeth—they restore wholeness and quality of life.

Kristina and Matthew Bailey began reading books to their son, Owen when he was six months old— they haven’t stopped.
Owen turned 4 in June and recently received an award from the Clarendon Hills Public Library for having had 1,000 books read to him before starting kindergarten.

The library’s 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge is one of a few reading challenge programs offered in Clarendon Hills, where the Bailey family has lived for the past 2 1/2 years.
Kristin Bailey said she saw an ad about the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge and decided it was a good fit for Owen.

“He’s always been really into books,” Bailey said. “He had a natural interest in books at nine months old. That’s when COVID started, and he didn’t get out much, so reading books to him worked out very well. He’s a naturally curious kid, and imagination-building is important. The reading allows him to learn and explore new things, and he really wants to learn to read now.”

Krista Devlin, the Clarendon Hills library’s youth services librarian, said there’s a specific reason The Friends of the Library-sponsored 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge was started in 2022.

“Reading aloud to a child is one of the best ways to help develop important early literacy skills, which will prepare them for kindergarten,” Devlin said. “It is also a great way to bond with your child and to encourage a love of reading.”

Devlin said Owen was the second child to reach the challenge of having 1,000 books read to him before starting kindergarten. He was awarded a certificate, a crown, and his picture was taken to recognize his accomplishment.

Bailey, who said she is “a big reader,” said her family usually goes to the library once a week. Reading three books each night to Owen, along with a book before nap time, is the household normal.

“Consistency in our routine has been good and is important,” she said, adding that Owen’s two sisters, ages 2 1/2 and 1
