Crafting Healthy, Confident Smiles in Newtown

New York City, New York Jun 19, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - In an era when many dental offices prioritize volume over personalization, Pleasant Dental in Newtown, Connecticut, offers something refreshingly different: a high-quality, fee-for-service experience where patient care, comfort, and excellence are never compromised. At the heart of this practice is Dennis B. TeeKing, DMD, MAGD, a nationally recognized dentist whose focus on cosmetic and preventive care has made him a trusted provider in the community for nearly three decades.

Since founding Pleasant Dental in 1996, Dr. TeeKing has built a practice defined by clinical excellence, advanced technology, and a warm, patient-first approach. We believe in taking the time to truly understand our patients and provide care thats tailored, thoughtful, and never rushed, says Dr. TeeKing. His services span the full spectrum of general and cosmetic dentistryincluding teeth whitening, veneers, crowns, root canals, implants, and childrens dentistrywith a strong emphasis on prevention and long-term oral health.

Dr. TeeKings journey began at Boston College, where he earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology. He went on to graduate with honors in crown and bridge from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, then completed a demanding general practice residency at St. Marys Hospital in Waterbury, where he gained intensive hands-on experience in advanced restorative procedures.

In a profession where continuing education is optional, Dr. TeeKing has gone far beyond the minimum. He holds the title of Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD)an achievement attained by fewer than 1% of dentists nationwide. This designation requires more than 2,000 hours of accredited continuing education across 16 dental disciplines and passage of a rigorous examination.

My goal has always been to stay at the forefront of dentistry so that I can provide the very best to my patients, he explains. His areas of continued expertise include cosmetic and restorative dentistry, periodontics, sleep apnea treatment, orthodontics, and implants.

Despite his many accolades, Dr. TeeKing remains grounded in what matters most: building strong, trusting relationships with the families he serves. Pleasant Dental operates outside the insurance model, allowing Dr. TeeKing to offer the highest-quality, personalized care without interference from third-party limitations. Our fee-for-service model ensures that every treatment recommendation is based on whats best for the patient, not an insurance company, he says.

Dr. TeeKing is also passionate about giving back. He has volunteered with the Connecticut Mission of Mercy (CT MOM) for over ten years and donates his time and skills to Dental Lifeline Network, providing much-needed dental services to individuals unable to afford care.

Outside the office, he enjoys spending time with his family and friends and staying active. His devotion to both his patients and his community continues to inspire trustand smilesthroughout Newtown and beyond.
