Meet Dr. Louis Abukhalaf

Dr. Louis Abukhalaf earned his undergraduate degree in chemistry and biochemistry, summa cum laude, from Loyola University Chicago, and his DDS, magna cum laude, from Marquette University School of Dentistry. He went on to complete advanced training at the Misch Implant Institute and the Kois Center, and became the first dentist in Indianapolis to introduce Yomi — the FDA-cleared robotic implant system that delivers surgical precision in implant placement, something previously impossible.

"The east side of Indianapolis has incredible families and a real sense of community. My goal is to make sure every patient who walks through our door leaves with a smile they're proud of — whether that's a cleaning, a crown, or a full implant restoration. You shouldn't have to travel across the city for exceptional dental care." — Dr. Louis Abukhalaf
