She moved to Chicago, IL and has been practicing family dentistry for the last 11 years in Illinois.

After Dr. Ned, her brother, decided to move to Chicago as well, the brother/sister duo knew that they would want to open up a dental office together. They were both happy to join forces and open up Skyline Smiles of Roscoe Village in August 2016. What rings true for both Dr. Ned and Dr Rosh, is that they and their team LOVE what they do. You feel it the first time you visit either one of their practices.

Dr. Rosh is passionate about dentistry and taking care of her patients. She values each patient as an individual with unique needs and goals. Her goal is to create healthy, beautiful smiles while keeping her patients comfortable, relaxed and pain free. She is known by her patients for her friendliness, compassionate care, and her willingness to listen and explain everything in clear detail.

Dr. Ned was born and raised in a suburb of Milwaukee, WI. Following his undergraduate studies he decided to follow in his elder sister’s footsteps and to pursue a career in dentistry.

After building a successful dental practice in West Loop, Dr. Ned and his sister Dr. Rosh decided to open a family practice together in Roscoe Village.

Dr. Ned strongly believes that he treats people, not just teeth. He offers a practice devoted to comprehensive dentistry and puts an emphasis on sound preventative dentistry.

Born and raised in Oak Brook, IL, Dr. Tania Bajaj was exposed to patient care as a child while assisting her father in his internal medicine practice. Engrained in her from a young age were the principles of quality over quantity care, service with a smile, treating every patient as family, and providing an environment that upheld open communication, patient comfort, and respect. After spending years getting her own teeth straightened, her passion for dentistry was ignited and nurtured by the gentle hand of her orthodontist. She went on to earn both her undergraduate and Doctor of Dental Medicine degrees at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Dr. Bajaj strives to provide a comfortable, gentle, and painless experience while aiming to build trust and rapport through effective communication. She values patient education and preventative dentistry in order to help avoid future dental pain and optimize oral health and, in turn, systemic health. She hopes to help restore the confidence needed for her patients to smile BIG!

In her free-time, Dr. Bajaj enjoys nature hikes, losing her voice cheering for the Cubs and Bulls, attending concerts, and discovering new restaurants in Chicago. She loves playing with her Golden Retriever, traveling across the world, and spending quality time with her family and friends!

Sofia is one of our Insurance Verification Specialists. She is the one who calls your insurance and gets a breakdown of benefits before you come in for your first appointment.
