David J. Rubis, D.D.S., graduated high school from the small Midwest Illinois town of Mt. Olive. His childhood dream was to one day become a dentist. With that dream in mind, he then graduated from Eastern Illinois University, located in Charleston, with a Bachelor of Science. In 1978, he graduated from Northwestern University Dental School fulfilling his childhood dream.
In conjunction with his dental schooling, Dr. Rubis served in the Illinois Air National Guard …for six years. While serving as a consultant on the MetLife Dental Insurance Advisory Board for four continuous years, he helped form dental office operating guidelines along with many other duties for their network of 36,000+ dentists. He has also received awards for volunteering for the Donated Dental Services (DDS) Program, a humanitarian service to disabled, elderly, and medically compromised people. He still remains currently active in numerous organizations helping out the community. Dr. Rubis was honored for his ability to deliver dental treatment as a featured dentist for a wedding makeover on the television show Extreme Makeover.
Dr. Rubis and his son currently have eight multidisciplinary practices consisting of a team of general dentists, specialists, and hygienists to provide advanced dental care for the entire family. His special interest is in orthodontics, TMJD, and sleep appliances for snoring and sleep apnea. In an effort to provide his patients with the latest technology in the dental field and the best possible service, Dr. Rubis attends numerous continuing education classes and seminars. Most recently, he is enrolled in the 2010 International Orthodontics Association Instructors Institute.
Dr. Rubis is the proud father of a daughter, Dr. Lisa Rubis, who is a chiropractor at her own practice, ANEW Chiropractic and Physical Therapy. She works in conjunction with the dental office patients' who have temporomandibular disorders. His son, Joseph Rubis, D.D.S., joins his father at many of their different locations. Dr. Joe has an interest in continuing his education in implants, veneers and cosmetic dentistry.
His hobbies include running, traveling, fishing, and taking his Mustang convertible for a spin in the summer. He has also been practicing Bikram Yoga for many years, and looks forward to the Shamrock Shuffle, as that signals the beginning of the spring season.
