About This Provider

Dr. Andrew Ponichtera is a highly skilled prosthodontist with 19 years of experience serving families in the Weatogue area and surrounding Connecticut communities. Beyond routine dental care, Dr. Ponichtera specializes in advanced restorative and cosmetic dentistry, and he is one of the few specialists in the region trained to create artificial noses and ears for patients recovering from cancer or trauma. He teaches dental students at the University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine and brings that same teaching spirit to his patient care, taking extra time to explain procedures and ensure comfort. Dr. Ponichtera and his dedicated team—many of whom have worked together for over 25 years—create a low-stress, down-to-earth environment where patients feel genuinely cared for.
