Dr. Elizabeth Asdell, DDS, MS
Pediatric Dentist
Dr. Elizabeth Asdell is a dedicated Pediatric Dentist at Palos Pediatric Dentistry, having recently joined the practice in December 2025.
Dr. Asdell's primary responsibilities include diagnosing and treating cavities, but most importantly, making the dental experience a positive one tailored to every individual patient. Her favorite thing about her job is interacting with the kids, having fun, joking around with them, and making their experience memorable—something they want to come back to. Following in the footsteps of her parents—her father is an oral surgeon and her mother is a hygienist—is what drew her to the dental field.
Dr. Asdell is extensively trained, having received her education from:
- Undergrad: Indiana University Bloomington
- Dental School: Indiana University School of Dentistry
- Residency: Riley Hospital For Children
When she isn't spending time with friends and family, Dr. Asdell enjoys going to concerts and other social events in the city, as well as hanging out with her dog, Mookie. She has a unique interest in music, particularly classic rock and many other genres, and enjoys listening to them on a record player. A fun fact people may not know about her is that she is a huge history buff and has visited a few historic sites around the U.S., with plans to visit more in the future.
We love Palos Pediatric Dentistry! From the arrival check in with the Insurance Coordinator, Tina, and on ward to the Dental Hygienists, Melissa and Fay, and final check up with Dr. Facko, the entire team are friendly and seem like family instead of the professionals they truly are. My daughters do not have a chance to become nervous and the appointments always run smooth. The dental hygienists and Dr. Facko always explain very clearly what they are about to do and educate the girls on proper dental care and oral hygiene. Thank you Dr. Facko, Tina, Melissa and Fay!
