Sydney Charneski, DMD

Dr. Sydney Charneski grew up in Richfield, Minnesota with her parents and older sister. She attended Gustavus Adolphus College in southern Minnesota where she obtained her bachelor’s degree in Biology. While in college she was heavily involved in community service and organized several local events to help children stay active and practice healthy lifestyles. 

In 2013, she headed to Illinois where she graduated dental school at Midwestern University in Downers Grove.  Sydney continued her passion for helping others by participating in several community service events.  She also met her fiancé in dental school, and they recently moved to the West Loop area.  She loves exploring the city and experiencing everything it has to offer.

At a very young age, Dr. Sydney knew she wanted to pursue a career in dentistry. She says it’s the perfect combination of art and science. She loves helping people through dentistry and is so excited to be your dentist at Acierno Family Dentistry. She looks forward to providing outstanding care, listening to your needs, and is committed to the comfort and well being of her patients. She constantly strives to be better and cannot wait to meet you.

When Dr. Sydney is not doing dentistry or cheering on the Green Bay Packers (Sorry Bears fans!) she loves to do outdoor activities such as kayaking, cross country skiing, and golfing. She also loves to travel and relax by the lake during the summer months. 

Rebecca Wilson, DMD

I am a Chicago native and was raised in Edison Park, just blocks away from the Acierno Family Dental Office. I recently moved to Deerfield with my fiancé upon completion of my education, who I am marrying this August after 7 years together. When we are not wedding planning we enjoy the outdoors, cooking, and spending time with our families on mini get-away adventures across the Midwest.

My family has always been patient and service oriented which brought me into the field of dentistry. My mother practices as an Occupational Therapist in schools with a focus on children with disabilities and my father serves as Chief overseeing the Chicago Fire Department Air Rescue Helicopter Unit. I have two younger brothers as well – the older works as a paramedic on the Chicago Fire Department and the younger is a helicopter pilot and aviation maintenance technician. My family’s passion for their positions as first responders and within therapy inspired my interest in pursuing my Doctorate in Dental Medicine.

I began my professional education at the University of Chicago with a full-tuition scholarship and followed by attending the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry. I graduated with a Doctorate in Dental Medicine as a member of the American Dental Association, Illinois State Dental Society, and Chicago Dental Society. Upon graduation, I was awarded the Dr. Edgar Gifford Scholarship, the James R. Havera Scholarship, and the Quintessence Award for Academic Achievement for clinical and academic success. I was also selected for the Advanced Placement Implant Program within the Prosthodontics Graduate Department where I worked to further my skills with implant restorations. My particular passions in dentistry find home in dental esthetics, comfort, and everyday function for my patients.
