OUR DENTISTS
DR. ELENA KALMANTIS, D.D.S, HBSc.
Dr. Kalmantis, owner and founder of Loft 32 Dentistry, graduated from the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry (London, ON, Western University) with distinction in 2012, and has been practicing in Windsor & Essex County for the past 12 years - most of this time practicing in LaSalle. In 2021, she opened Loft 32 Dentistry, and is beyond thrilled and grateful to serve the beautiful community she calls home.
Dr. Kalmantis is passionate about oral health, and loves to help her patients achieve a beautiful and healthy smile. She also loves educating patients – she has even been able to educate through another platform: her dental blog/Instagram page @drkalmantis, which she started in 2019. Her patients have always known her to be gentle and caring, with a close eye for detail and perfectionist tendencies. But she has also proven to be a helpful resource and a strong advocate for patients. She prides herself on being approachable and easily accessible for questions.
Going back to earlier years, Dr. Kalmantis is originally from Toronto. Her family moved to Windsor in 1998. She graduated from Bellewood Public School, Vincent Massey Secondary School, and from the University of Windsor (HBSc., major: Biology, minor: Chemistry). She began her dental journey in 2008 when she moved to London, Ontario for dental school, following in the footsteps of her grandfather, 55+ years later.
Dr. Kalmantis lives here in LaSalle, Ontario with her husband and two young children. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, traveling, reformer pilates, spinning, yoga, interior design/decorating and event planning. She also loves taking continuing education courses and is completely dedicated to life-long learning in this ever-evolving field of dentistry.
She enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, but has particular interest in cosmetic procedures and smile makeovers, clear aligners, and pediatric dentistry.
She is a member in good standing with the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario, the Ontario Dental Association, and the Essex County Dental Society.

Prior to dental school, Dr. Chauvin attended the University of Windsor where she obtained an Honours Bachelor of Science Degree with majors in both Biology and Psychology. Her love of both the arts and sciences led her down the path to dentistry.
Dr. Chauvin prides herself on providing the best possible care for her patients and she is committed to changing the way patients view dentistry. She is passionate about educating patients and involving them in their own oral care and strives to create a comforting environment for all.
Dr. Chauvin attends multiple continuing education courses and conventions every year to keep up to date with the newest techniques and innovations in dentistry. Although she enjoys all aspects of dentistry, she has a particular interest in cosmetic and restorative dentistry, orthodontics, and oral surgery.
Dr. Chauvin currently resides in Amherstburg, Ontario with her husband and young daughter. Outside of the dental office she enjoys travelling, quality time with family and friends, Pilates, spending time outdoors and listening to a good playlist or podcast.
