Dr. Christine Lam
Chicago-raised, Midwestern University-trained DMD with a deep focus on CAD/CAM restorations, molar endodontics, and the detail work restorative cases demand.
About Dr. Lam
Dr. Christine Lam was born and raised in the Chicagoland area. Her path to dentistry started in a high school materials art class — a combination of artistic expression and scientific curiosity that has shaped her clinical eye since.
She earned her bachelor's in biological sciences from the University of Illinois at Chicago before graduating from Midwestern University College of Dentistry as a Doctor of Dental Medicine in 2022. Her clinical focus includes CAD/CAM restorations, restorative procedures, molar endodontics, and surgical extractions — the cases where detail and patience separate outcomes.
Dr. Lam has volunteered at free dental clinics through Aspen and Heartland since 2013, served on Mission Lazarus in Honduras in 2023, and worked with Mission of Mercy in Southern Illinois. Outside practice she travels, plays pickleball, videographs, and has a well-documented affection for Disney. She lives with her husband Eddie and their dog, Tohru.
“Dentistry is art as much as it is medicine. Both deserve patience.”
