Dr. Paige Elwood, DDS

Dentist

Dr. Paige Elwood is proud to serve the Yankton community as the owner and dentist at Elwood Family Dental Care. A native of Yankton, Dr. Elwood brings a personal touch to her practice, caring for generations of families she has known for years. She finds immense joy in working with patients of all ages and loves the variety that dentistry brings to her daily life.

Dr. Elwood earned her undergraduate degree from the University of South Dakota before completing her dental education at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry. She began her professional journey in 2009, practicing at Neighborhood Dental in Yankton for nine years. In 2017, she fulfilled a longtime dream by acquiring Dr. Grossenburg’s practice and rebranding it as Elwood Family Dental Care.

For Dr. Elwood, dentistry is more than just a profession; it’s a chance to give back to the community that shaped her. Inspired by a pivotal conversation with her orthodontist just before high school graduation, she found her calling in dental care and has never looked back.

At the heart of her practice is a dynamic and compassionate team. “We not only take care of our patients, but we take care of each other,” says Dr. Elwood. “While our main focus is patient care, we make sure to have fun and enjoy each other’s company while doing it.”

Outside the office, Dr. Elwood is an avid supporter of her children’s sports and a proud fan of the Yankton High School Bucks and Gazelles. She's passionate about her community and schools, and when she’s not cheering from the sidelines, you might find her at a country music concert; she’s been to at least 26! A lover of true crime documentaries, Dr. Elwood also enjoys binge-watching Netflix in her downtime.

With deep local roots and a genuine passion for patient care, Dr. Elwood is dedicated to helping her patients smile with confidence while ensuring that her team and practice are filled with positivity and laughter every step of the way.
