Elmhurst Family Dental opened its doors in 1996, founded by Dr. Louis Pahopos — an Elmhurst native and graduate of York High School. What started as a young dentist returning to his hometown has become a practice generations of Elmhurst families now call their own, some of whom Dr. Pahopos has treated since they were three years old.
We've stayed local and personally led on purpose. Dr. Pahopos still oversees every patient's care himself, and has built a team of dentists and specialists — including a periodontist — around him, so families can get comprehensive care in one place instead of being referred out.
A calm, unhurried environment where questions are welcome and nothing is rushed — especially for nervous first-time patients, young and old.
Dr. Pahopos is a supporter of The Oral Cancer Foundation and an active member of the Elmhurst Chamber of Commerce. Closer to home, our "No Cavity Club" gives kids age 3 and up a fun, encouraging reason to look forward to the dentist — cavity-free exams earn a free t-shirt and a little recognition for good habits.
