Meet Dr. Louis Abukhalaf

Dr. Louis Abukhalaf leads care at SmileCentric East. He graduated summa cum laude from Loyola University Chicago with a degree in chemistry and biochemistry, then earned his dental degree magna cum laude from Marquette University School of Dentistry. He went on to train at the Misch Implant Institute and the Kois Center, postgraduate programs focused on advanced implant placement and restorative care. Cosmetic and implant dentistry are his primary specialties.

"I've lived in Lawrence my whole life and tried a few different dentists over the years. Nothing compares to the experience at SmileCentric East. Dr. Abukhalaf took his time explaining everything, and my implant procedure was so much smoother than I expected. I finally feel confident about my smile again." — Sarah M., Lawrence Township resident
