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.

Outside of dentistry, I enjoy staying active both indoors and out with activities such as skiing, sports, and going to the gym. I also enjoy traveling, trying new restaurants and playing the piano and guitar. I am very excited to be a part of the practice and begin building lasting relationships with every patient I see.

I look forward to meeting you all and serving the Edison Park community!

Dr. Brandon Rentmeester

I was born and raised in Green Bay so I am a Packer fan, but don’t hold that against me. I completed my undergraduate education at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse in 2015, and worked at a Milwaukee area dental lab for two years prior to dental school.

My Doctor of Dental Surgery degree was earned at Creighton University School of Dentistry, where I received an incredible education in clinical dentistry. The diverse patient population at Creighton allowed me to become proficient in clinical dentistry, including fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, extractions, dentures, and more.

My favorite part about being a dentist is serving and educating my patients. Ask me anything, and I will be glad to help you understand. Visits to the dentist can be stressful and sometimes overwhelming. I find the best way to help patients feel comfortable is to keep open lines of communication. If you are wondering why I am doing things a certain way, ask! I love answering questions, and providing treatment options that work for a patient’s unique needs. My job is to keep my patients smiling, and that is why I absolutely love what I do.

After four years of living in Omaha I am overjoyed to have the opportunity to live in Chicago, and to be that much closer to home. When I am not in the office, I enjoy watching baseball, playing golf, cooking, and exploring Chicago. When I get the chance to travel, my favorite destination is my family’s lake cottage in northern Wisconsin.

I look forward to serving my community, and I cannot wait to meet you!
