CHICAGO, IL, January 20, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Irfan Atcha has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Dr. Atcha has established a distinguished career in dental medicine, marked by innovation and leadership in the field of dental implants. Since 2012, he has served as founder and chief executive officer of New Teeth Chicago Dental Implant Center, located in the Greater Chicago Area. Under his direction, the center has become a leading destination for advanced dental implant procedures, earning recognition for its comprehensive approach to patient care. Dr. Atcha is particularly noted for being among the first practitioners in the Chicago area to offer same-day dental implants, a pioneering service that allows patients to receive assessments, fabrication, surgery, anesthesia and all related procedures within a single office visit. This integrated model has set a new standard for patient convenience and clinical outcomes, distinguishing his practice at a regional and national level.

In addition to his primary role, Dr. Atcha has been the founder, chief executive officer, principal implantologist and dentist at New Teeth Dental since 1996. Early in his career, he purchased his first dental practice in 1999, successfully building its reputation before selling it at a strong valuation to a private buyer. He subsequently acquired a larger group practice from a retiring dentist, where he managed a team of 50 professionals and developed a thriving clinic. Between 2006 and 2007, Dr. Atcha began advanced training in dental implant surgeries, anesthesia and complex cases. As the owner of the building housing his clinic, designing one side for specialty services and the other for general dentistry.

In 2011, recognizing an opportunity to expand specialized services, Dr. Atcha sought out a location in downtown Chicago to establish a dedicated dental implant center. The launch of New Teeth Chicago was met with immediate success due to his established brand and reputation. As demand grew, he made the strategic decision to sell his general dental practice and its real estate holdings to focus exclusively on advancing New Teeth Chicago Dental Implant Center. In addition to managing his clinic, Dr. Atcha has lectured for several professional organizations and served as faculty within his affiliations.

Throughout his three-decade career, Dr. Atcha has been recognized as an expert in dental implants. His achievements include being featured in the Top 100 Innovators & Entrepreneurs Magazine in 2024. He is also an active member of several professional organizations, including the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, the American Dental Association, the Chicago Dental Society, the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology and the International Dental Implant Association.

Dr. Atcha's academic foundation includes earning a Doctor of Dental Surgery from the College of Dentistry at the University of Illinois in 1996 after completing a Bachelor of Science in biochemistry with a minor in psychology from the same school five years before. His commitment to continued education is reflected in his credentials as a diplomate of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists through the United Latino Students Association and a fellow of the same organization since 2009. He also holds diplomate and fellow status with the International Dental Implant Association and has completed advanced studies in anesthesia and sedation.

Reflecting on his career, Dr. Atcha attributes his professional success to resilience—a quality instilled by his father's example of perseverance, hard work and business acumen—as well as the steadfast support of his family and clinical team. His wife also plays an integral role in streamlining processes and providing critical feedback that enhances both personal growth and business operations.

Dr. Atcha's passion for science was influenced by his family's long lineage in medicine. Drawn to dentistry by its blend of scientific rigor and direct impact on patient well-being, he views his profession as both a means to solve problems for others and create lasting stability for his family.

Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Atcha is committed to civic engagement and philanthropy. He supports breast cancer awareness initiatives and frequently volunteers for emergency extractions, palliative care services and oral cancer screenings through organizations like Dentistry From The Heart. His professional excellence has been recognized with awards from America's Best Dentists and first place for Table Clinic Presentation on "Restoring Function for Patients with Atrophic Maxilla with Zygomatic Implants" from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists.

Dr. Atcha is also an accomplished author whose works include "Restorative Driven Implant Solutions," published in Inclusive Magazine, as well as various articles on implant cases featured in major dental publications. Furthermore, he contributed to biochemistry research during dental school. Outside of his professional commitments, he enjoys fitness activities, such as running 5k and 10k races, traveling and spending time with his family, including his one daughter.
