Dr. Philippe Chahine, DMD, FAGD, owner of Just Smiles – General, Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, has been selected by his peers for inclusion in the topDentists™ database for 2026, marking his fourteenth consecutive year receiving this distinction. The recognition is based on a peer-review survey where dentists nominate colleagues they would trust to treat their own families, with inclusion in the list reflecting clinical skill, ethics, and commitment to excellence.
Dr. Chahine was also featured in the June edition of Columbus Monthly, which publishes the annual list of topDentists throughout Central Ohio. Unlike many professional rankings, inclusion in topDentists cannot be purchased, relying solely on peer nominations.
“I am grateful and humbled once again to be recognized by my peers, especially because this recognition reflects the hard work and dedication of the entire Just Smiles team,” said Dr. Chahine. “For more than two decades, our team has had the privilege of caring for families throughout Central Ohio. This recognition reflects our commitment to clinical excellence, continuing education, and delivering the kind of personalized care that has always been at the heart of Just Smiles.”
Just Smiles is one of Central Ohio's most established privately owned dental practices, serving generations of families for more than two decades. The practice has served the Hilliard community for 23 years and the Westerville community for 20 years. Supported by a team of six dentists and more than 35 dental professionals, Just Smiles invests in advanced technology, expanded services, and innovative treatment options designed to improve patient comfort and outcomes.
Dr. Chahine earned Fellowship status in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD) in 2007, a distinction achieved by fewer than seven percent of dentists in North America. He is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, trained in DOCS protocols, and has achieved Invisalign® Pearl Provider status. He regularly lectures and provides continuing education programs for fellow dental professionals, sharing his experience in advancing patient care.
This recognition underscores the importance of peer-reviewed excellence in dentistry and the value of long-standing community trust. For patients, it signals a consistent standard of care in a field where reputation and clinical outcomes matter deeply.
