About Allan L. Link, DMD
Dr. Allan Link is happy to be a family dentist serving patients throughout the St. Louis area. In his more than 35 years of service, he is proud of the work he has done to help thousands of patients. He has done so by providing comprehensive care including general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, dentures, laser procedures, teeth whitening, and more. Whenever possible, Dr. Link uses non-invasive procedures, and he understands the links between oral and overall health. Dr. Link was born in Normandy, MO and grew up in St. Louis, where he graduated from St. Louis Priory High School in 1973. After earning his undergraduate degree from Duke University (Go Blue Devils!), he graduated from the Washington University School of Dental Medicine in 1981. Dr. Link started the practice in 1981 in South City St. Louis. He then opened the Ballwin office in 1985 and moved the city office to its current South County location the same year. Throughout his career, he has made it a priority to stay on top of the changes in dentistry. As part of his continuing education, he has completed a program in esthetics dentistry at the University of Missouri, Kansas City. He also is an active member of the Academy of General Dentistry and the International Congress of Oral Implantology. Dr. Link is a Fellow of the International Academy of Dental Facial Esthetics and an Invisalign Certified Provider. As a sign of the respect he has among his peers, he also has been a speaker at the national meeting of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Outside the office, Dr. Link likes to cheer on the Duke basketball team, fish, golf, and participate in scouting activities with his children. He gets sentimental about a trip he took with the scouts and his sons to Philmont, NM. He and his wife, Mary, have four children — James, Matthew, Dr. Andrew Link, and Courtney.
