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. 

Dr. Tristan Lunsford

Hello, my name is Dr. Tristan Lunsford, and I am thrilled to be joining the team at Acierno Family Dentistry. I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan before attending Michigan State University. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology, then went on to earn my DDS from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry. I have always loved visiting the Chicagoland area growing up and bring with me a passion for providing high-quality, individualized dental care to the diverse patients here.

I enjoy the opportunity to talk to patients from all walks of life and provide them with an important service and confidence in their smiles. I appreciate the attention to detail and rewarding results that can be seen immediately from providing dental care. I am proficient in restorative dentistry, fixed and removable prosthodontics, pediatric dentistry, emergency dental care, and am a certified Invisalign provider. I am also a member of the American Dental Association and love the lifelong learning opportunity that the dental field provides. Many patients see their dentist more than their doctor, and I am grateful not only for the relationships dentistry allows me to build with patients but also the opportunity to monitor patients’ overall health. I am excited to bring his relaxed, trust-centered approach to the practice.
