The Process Behind the List
To create our Top Dentists directory, we utilized the experts at topDentists™, which has more than seventy years in combined experience compiling peer-review referral guides in the legal, dental and medical fields. The research company, which started topDentists in 2007, uses a thorough selection process to recognize dentists who are chosen by other dental professionals.
INTRODUCTION
This list is excerpted from the 2026 topDentists™ list, a database that includes listings of more than 210 dentists and specialists in the Fairfield County area. The list is based on thousands of detailed evaluations of dental professionals by their peers. The complete database is available at usatopdentists.com. For more information, call 706-364-0853; write P.O. Box 970, Augusta, GA 30903 or visit usatopdentists.com.
SELECTION PROCESS
“If you had a patient in need of a dentist, which dentist would you refer them to?”
This is the question we’ve asked thousands of dentists to help us determine who the topDentists should be. Dentists and specialists are asked to take into consideration years of experience, continuing education, manner with patients, use of new techniques and technologies and of course physical results.
The nomination pool of dentists consists of all dentists listed online with the American Dental Association as well as dentists listed online with their local dental societies, thus allowing virtually every dentist the opportunity to participate. Dentists are also given the opportunity to nominate other dentists that they feel should be included in our list. Respondents are asked to put aside any personal bias or political motivations and to use only their knowledge of their peer’s work when evaluating the other nominees.
Voters are asked to individually evaluate the practitioners on their ballot whose work they are familiar with. Once the balloting is completed, the scores are compiled and then averaged. The numerical average required for inclusion varies depending on the average for all the nominees within the specialty and the geographic area. Borderline cases are given a careful consideration by the editors. Voting characteristics and comments are taken into consideration while making decisions. Past awards a dentist has received and status in various dental academies can play a factor in our decision.
Once the decisions have been finalized, the included dentists are checked against state dental boards for disciplinary actions to make sure they have an active license and are in good standing with the board. Then letters of congratulations are sent to all the listed dentists.
Of course, there are many fine dentists who are not included in this representative list. It is intended as a sampling of the great body of talent in the field of dentistry in the United States. A dentist’s inclusion on our list is based on the subjective judgments of his or her fellow dentists. While it is true that the lists may at times disproportionately reward visibility or popularity, we remain confident that our polling methodology largely corrects for any biases and that these lists continue to represent the most reliable, accurate, and useful list of dentists available anywhere

Linhart Dentistry, with over 45 years of expertise in Midtown Manhattan, expanded into Greenwich in 2021 and has now added a new location in Fairfield!
“We are old-world service and charm in a modern, state-of-the-art environment”, says Dr. Jan Linhart and Dr. Zachary Linhart, “our history is deeply rooted in New York City, but our story began in Europe, and our patients are from all over the world. We always knew Greenwich would be the next point of expansion, and we are excited to have established our new office in Cos Cob, right in the middle of town.”
In 1979, Dr. Jan Linhart opened the doors to Linhart Dentistry in NYC’s iconic Helmsley Building, steps from Grand Central Terminal. There, Dr. Linhart built a most impressive, full-service dental practice, from full-mouth cosmetic cases to comprehensive general care. NY Magazine referred to the practice as “One-Stop Dental Perfection!”
In 2010, Dr. Zachary Linhart joined the practice after following in his father’s footsteps of attending Bowdoin College and NYU College of Dentistry. He added his expertise in implantology, and echoing his father, an eye for cosmetic dentistry. Their NYC staff of over 25 consists of top in- house specialists including a Periodontist (gum and implant specialist), Endodontist (Root Canal Specialist), Orthodontist (braces and Invisalign
specialist) as well as hygienists, assistants and administrative staff - many of whom have been there for more than twenty years!
It’s clear both doctors have the skill

motion. It wasn’t until the Covid pandemic that Dr. Zachary Linhart fully realized the positive impact a Greenwich practice would have for current Linhart Dentistry patients, as well as other local residents.
When Dr. Zachary Linhart moved to Greenwich in 2016 with his young family, he was returning to the area, having grown up in nearby Purchase, NY and graduating from RCDS. At this point, the plan to extend their NYC practice was set in

“Our added location in this beautiful, suburban environment has provided more, and easier opportunities to keep up with regular dental care. We are so pleased to be offering our services in Greenwich and now Fairfield, and look forward to welcoming the community to our new offices!”
We are proud to offer our NYC style of dentistry in three beautiful locations, all working together as a single team to provide the highest level of dentistry anywhere.
For over 40 years, Greenwich Dental Studio’s office has been a trusted part of the Greenwich community, built on a philosophy that great dentistry starts with relationships. What began as a practice rooted in personal care and long-term trust has evolved into a modern dental studio focused on combining advanced clinical excellence with a highly personalized patient experience. Today, under the leadership of Dr. Angela Marwaha and Dr. Masis Yeterian Jr., who are both local Greenwich residents, the practice continues to honor the culture and legacy that generations of families have come to know while bringing a refreshed vision and elevated standard of care into a new era of dentistry.
Located in the heart of Cos Cob, the practice has remained committed to the same core principles that built its reputation decades ago: honesty, attention to detail,
and putting patients first. Patients are never rushed or treated like numbers. Instead, Greenwich Dental Studio focuses on creating an experience that feels approachable, comfortable, and deeply relationshipdriven. That philosophy continues to attract generations of families who value consistency, familiarity, and a team that genuinely cares.
While the culture of the practice remains timeless, the dentistry itself continues to evolve. Dr. Marwaha and Dr. Yeterian bring a thoughtful, modern approach to patient care, blending advanced technology with a strong belief that dentistry is both clinical and artistic. From digital scanners to cosmetic smile design, implant crowns, TMJ treatment, and full restorative care, the practice emphasizes precision, efficiency, and longterm outcomes without losing the warmth and personal connection patients expect.
Dr. Yeterian, a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI), is known for his calm, patient-first approach and commitment to minimally invasive, modern dentistry, while Dr. Marwaha, a Fellow of both the International College of Dentists (ICD) and Pierre Fauchard Academy (PFA), brings an artistic eye and extensive advanced training that helps patients feel both comfortable and confident in their care. Together, they have helped transition Greenwich Dental Studio into a practice that reflects the future of dentistry while preserving the integrity and trust that built its foundation.
Today, Greenwich Dental Studio stands as a reflection of both legacy and progress — a practice where longstanding relationships meet modern innovation, and where patients of all ages can experience dentistry designed around trust, comfort, and lasting results.

Some of our patients have even commuted from as far as London, Qatar, Atlanta, Chicago, New York, and New Jersey to be treated in our office.
Greenwich Braces is also equipped with top-notch in-office technology for patients including: lower radiation digital x-rays, digital photographic images, and the latest iTero™ intraoral scanner- which enables us to take 3D digital scans of the patient’s bite and teeth, eliminating the need for messy impressions. These tools not only help to provide precision and accuracy, but they also enhance our patients’ satisfaction in the orthodontic experience.
Additionally, keeping compassion in mind with everything we do, we are also committed to giving back to our community, both
locally and beyond. Each month, Greenwich Braces donates a portion of our profits to local charities. In addition, we always take on several pro-bono orthodontic cases. At Greenwich Braces, we feel it is important to recognize a need for compassion beyond braces for our patients and our community.

TRAYNOR PERIODONTICS & IMPLANTS 15 Valley Drive, Suite 302 | Greenwich, CT | 203.661.5885 | tpigreenwich.com
For 27 years, I have had the privilege of caring for patients in Greenwich and building a practice centered on excellence, precision, and trust. As a periodontist and implant specialist, my philosophy extends beyond treating disease or replacing missing teeth—I believe exceptional care begins with thoughtful planning, personalized treatment, and long-term relationships with both patients and referring doctors.
At Traynor Periodontics & Implants, we provide highly individualized periodontal and implant care in a welcoming, boutique environment designed to make patients feel comfortable and cared for from the moment they walk through our doors. Our approach combines advanced technology with a
level of personal attention that allows every treatment plan to be tailored to the unique needs and goals of each patient.
My practice focuses on precision-driven implant placement and regenerative procedures that help preserve natural teeth and restore the health and beauty of the smile. Through advanced surgical techniques and digital treatment planning, we are able to provide predictable outcomes while prioritizing comfort, function, and aesthetics.
I also have a particular interest in minimally invasive approaches, including palate-free gingival grafting for the treatment of gum recession, and laser therapy, allowing many patients to experience a more comfortable
recovery while achieving beautiful, natural results.
What has always mattered most to me, however, is the experience we create for our patients. I believe people deserve care that feels personal, thoughtful, and unhurried. Whether placing a single tooth implant, treating periodontal disease, or rebuilding a smile, my goal is to provide the highest level of care while helping patients feel informed, confident, and truly cared for throughout the process.
After nearly three decades in practice, I remain as passionate as ever about combining innovation, artistry, and individualized care to help patients achieve healthy smiles that last a lifetime.

If you add up all the years Dr. Goodwin has been in the Dental Field as a Hygienist and a Dentist, you will see she has been taking care of teeth for over 20 years. “Time has flown by. I’ve had the opportunity to see so many changes in Dentistry.” Technological advances really help her days go by with less stress. At her family practice in Cos Cob she uses the safest equipment and the most up-todate technology available. While there are many things I love about being a Dentist, treatment planning with the local specialists in town is very exciting for me. Being a solo Dentist at my office can get lonely sometimes, so it is great to work and collaborate with a group of talented dentists I also call my friends. I love watching kids I see at 3 or 4 years old grow up. Being a general dentist I can appreciate different stages of growth and even watch them have their own children. But the best
part about my job is the worklife balance it provides me of a mother of 2 active boys. I can get into work early, treat patients all day, and make it to their events after school. It is most important to me not to miss my children growing up, and Dentistry allows me to do just that.
Our practice has continues to serve our community for over 20 years. We provide state-ofthe-art treatment in all phases of dentistry, including after hour emergency care. We engage in continuing education to stay up to date with the latest technologies to best serve our patients and families. We get to know our patients very, very well. Our staff have been with our practice a LONG time. We love seeing our patients all over town. I love when kids run up to me to show me their wiggly teeth or when patients introduce me to their families. It’s a great feeling and the reason I love being a Local Dentist.

NEW CANAAN DENTISTRY
Biomimetic and Cosmetic Dentistry
162 East Ave, New Canaan, CT 06840 (203) 972-0588
newcanaandentistry.com
An artist long before he was a dentist, Dr. Graham M. Caulkins sees every healthy tooth as nature’s own artwork — and uses the latest, science-backed biomimetic techniques and highest-quality biomaterials to save it, not replace it. His conservative, toothpreserving practice rebuilds teeth to mimic their natural strength, function, and beauty.
A merit-scholar graduate of the New York University College of Dentistry, Dr. Caulkins completed his clinical residency at Montefiore Hospital. Over five-plus years, a growing passion for biomimetic dentistry has taken him to its source — studying under two of its founding masters: Dr. Simone Deliperi at the Sardinia Dental Teaching Center in Italy, and in person with Dr. David Alleman in Provo, Utah. That training culminated in a mastership program, making him one of the few dentists in the United States to reach this level of biomimetic certification. His work has been recognized with the USA Top Dentists 2026 award for Cosmetic Dentistry.
For patients, this means less drilling, fewer root canals over a lifetime, and high-precision restorations designed to last longer and look and feel as natural as possible.
The artistry is literal. Dr. Caulkins grew up in Chappaqua, New York, and attended Brunswick School in Greenwich — an award-winning artist and landscape oil painter, who spent his summers restoring antique colonial furniture. He brings the same patience and respect for original material to every restoration: the goal is never simply to repair a tooth, but to return it to something whole, natural, and lasting.
Currently welcoming new patients by appointment.
Q/A: Biomimetic Dentistry
What is biomimetic dentistry?
Biomimetic dentistry uses advanced adhesive bonding instead of traditional crowns and fillings—conserving far more of your natural tooth, reducing the need for root canals, and creating stronger, longer-lasting repairs that flex and function like real teeth.
Is it anything like holistic dentistry?
Despite the similar-sounding name, biomimetic dentistry is something different entirely—a science-driven approach using advanced biomaterials and adhesive technology to restore teeth to their natural strength and function.
What got you interested in it?
I came for the science and stayed for the art. Preserving more of the natural tooth opens up exciting ways to rebuild and restore a smile—and I love getting to do that work.
How do you recommend fi nding a biomimetic dentist? Great question—anyone can call themselves biomimetic, so look for formal certification and accreditation, ideally at the fellowship or mastership level. The good news: you can check for yourself on sites like aobmd.org and allemancenter.com

Anthony T. Festa, D.D.S.
Dr. Anthony T. Festa has been practicing dentistry in New Canaan for over three decades. After graduating from Fordham University, Magna Cum Laude, he went on to study at the prestigious S.U.N.Y. at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine from which he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. He then completed his general practice residency at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. Shortly thereafter, he started his NEW CANAAN DENTAL CARE practice.
Within the last year, Dr. Festa opened a new, state-of-the-art facility located at 43 Pine Street in New Canaan. The move marks an exciting new chapter for New Canaan Dental Care and its patients. “After 32 years on South Avenue, my landlord informed me that he was selling the property,” says Dr. Festa. “After an exhausting search for a
new space, I was most fortunate to find and purchase the beautiful Pine Street location, given its proximity to my old office and its well-known address in town.”
This premiere New Canaan location provides a new, cutting-edge dental practice for all your family’s needs. Conveniently located on the first floor of this recognizable and renowned stately brick building, New Canaan Dental Care has an abundance of patient parking and walkability to the train station and the center of town.
Consistently voted as one of the Top Dentists in Connecticut, Dr. Festa has developed a spacious, fully equipped practice with the latest technologies and treatment options. New Canaan Dental Care offers a broad range of services in all phases of dentistry including cosmetic, family, periodontics, implants, Invisalign, whitening,
and sleep apnea treatment.
Dr. Festa has combined his passion for both dentistry and photography in his new, contemporary space by showcasing some of his award-winning photographs throughout the office. “It was my intention to create a truly relaxing and artistic dental space. I’ve always felt that stock photos of beautiful people with perfect teeth is quite intimidating. I’d much rather provide my patients with that perfect smile, but in a soothing, gallery-like atmosphere filled with captivating images.”
He concludes, “We are incredibly excited about this new chapter and continue to welcome existing and new patients to our new home. Our highly talented, dedicated, and warm staff remains intact, as does the superior level of personalized and caring attention given to each and every patient.”

If you add up all the years Dr. Goodwin has been in the Dental Field as a Hygienist and a Dentist, you will see she has been taking care of teeth for over 20 years. “Time has flown by. I’ve had the opportunity to see so many changes in Dentistry.” Technological advances really help her days go by with less stress. At her family practice in Cos Cob she uses the safest equipment and the most up-todate technology available. While there are many things I love about being a Dentist, treatment planning with the local specialists in town is very exciting for me. Being a solo Dentist at my office can get lonely sometimes, so it is great to work and collaborate with a group of talented dentists I also call my friends. I love watching kids I see at 3 or 4 years old grow up. Being a general dentist I can appreciate different stages of growth and even watch them have their own children. But the best
