Kristofer Popelas, D.M.D.
Kristofer Popelas, D.M.D. graduated with Honors in 2002 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the University of Pittsburgh. He then continued on to pursue his Doctorate degree, again becoming an Honors graduate of the University's School of Dental Medicine. Throughout his time there, he was often awarded for his outstanding clinical and academic achievements. He is a member in good standing with several organizations including (but not limited to) the American Dental Association, the Pennsylvania Dental Association, and the Dental Society of Western Pennsylvania. Locally, he is also involved with various civic and community events and organizations.
In 2006, Dr. Popelas opened Oak Hill Dental in the same Township where he grew up as a child. This comfortable and very friendly environment has made him the go-to “Neighborhood Dentist”. In order to keep their dental practice on the cutting edge though, a great deal of time is devoted to continuing education and research. This allows their practice to remain current with the latest dental technologies and advanced procedures, while still retaining that small-town feel.
While away from the office, Dr. Popelas enjoys spending time with his lovely wife, Mary, and their two sons Benjamin and Parker. He is an avid golfer and fisherman and has a passion for all Pittsburgh sports, especially the Steelers. Dr. Kris (as his patients routinely refer to him as) is very approachable and kind-hearted and always looks out for his patient's best interests.
