Dr. Yue has been practicing orthodontics in Chicago for the past ten years, creating happy, healthy smiles for every patient he treats at his practice Willowbrook Orthodontics.

Education & Background
Dr. Isaac Yue grew up in Midland, Michigan. He graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor’s of Science in Chemical Engineering. After his undergraduate studies, he attended the Harvard School of Dental Medicine where he began his orthodontic training at the Faculty Practice. He received his Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree in 2002. While at Harvard, Dr. Yue also conducted specialized research in biodegradable antibiotic systems to treat gum disease, which was subsequently patented. After leaving Harvard, Dr. Yue returned to the Midwest to attend the University of Illinois, where he completed his Master of Science in Oral Sciences and obtained his official certification in orthodontics. He became board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics in 2006. This certification is significant because it is only conferred to a small percentage of orthodontists practicing in America.

He also helps to lecture and tutor at multiple study clubs and professional events, sharing his expertise and experience in the new innovations in orthodontics with other specialists.
