BOARD-CERTIFIED ORAL & MAXILLOFACIAL SURGEON
Dr. Sonia Bennett DDS
For Michigan City patients, the trip west to Chesterton is a familiar one, and the surgeon waiting at the end of it is Dr. Sonia Bennett, a board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon who takes time to explain the plan before anyone picks up an instrument.
Dr. Bennett received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the Indiana University School of Dentistry and went on to a hospital-based residency in oral and maxillofacial surgery at Highland Hospital and the University of the Pacific in the San Francisco Bay Area. That training spans the whole specialty, including anesthesia and the management of medically complex patients.
She is the expert in face, mouth and jaw surgery for a growing list of lakeshore families, with 12,000+ implants placed and over 2,000 full arch cases completed. Michigan City patients can expect 3D imaging before decisions are made, sedation options explained without pressure, and a personal check-in call once they are home.
SPECIALIZED ORAL CARE
Oral Surgery Procedures
Glacial Sands OMS provides the surgical side of dentistry for Michigan City from our Chesterton office: dental implants and All-on-4® full arch replacement, wisdom teeth removal under IV sedation, bone grafting, extractions, corrective jaw surgery, and oral pathology. General dentists along Franklin Street and the US 20 corridor refer their surgical cases here because surgery is all we do.
Patients have rated the practice 4.9 stars on Google, and the themes repeat: gentle handling, honest pricing, and calls returned. Whether the case is a single implant or a full reconstruction, the planning starts with a 3D scan and a conversation, not a sales pitch.

Dr. Sonia Bennett takes pride in providing her patients with confidence, care, and comfort.
Getting to Chesterton from Michigan City
Our office at 1008 Broadway, STE 100, Chesterton is about 14 miles and roughly 25 minutes from Michigan City. The straightforward route is US 20 west, through the Dunes country you already know, then south on State Road 49 into Chesterton. Plenty of patients take I-94 west instead and exit at State Road 49. On a summer weekend, US 12 along the lake is prettier and slower, and it lands you in the same place.
Twenty-five minutes is close enough that a morning surgery still leaves your driver time to get back to Trail Creek, Long Beach, or the Washington Park end of town before lunch. Follow-up visits are equally manageable while you heal. In-person consultations are $150, including all X-rays, and that $150 is credited toward your surgery when you move forward.

OUR SERVICES
ALL-on-4 Dental Implants
All-on-4® treatment rebuilds a full arch of teeth on four implants and has changed what is possible for patients who thought dentures were their only option.

Michigan City patients can start from home with a complimentary virtual consultation with implant coordinator Cilestia Jurek, who will talk through candidacy and costs before you commit to anything.
