Dr. Louis Pahopos and our team have cared for Elmhurst families for over 25 years — combining a calm, unhurried approach with modern dental technology, for patients age 3 through grandparents.
Kids age 3 and up who keep a cavity-free exam earn free instruction in good habits — and a t-shirt to show for it. A small program built around a big idea: dental visits should feel good, not scary.

Dr. Pahopos is an Elmhurst native and York High School graduate who opened Elmhurst Family Dental in 1996. Nearly three decades later, he's still leading the practice — now alongside a team of dentists and a periodontist he's personally built around him, so patients get comprehensive care without being sent elsewhere.
