Our Doctor

Dr. David Bennett has been an innovator in aesthetic dentistry for over twenty years. A Colorado resident since 1976, he attended Regis Jesuit High School where he learned the Jesuit value of being a ‘Man For Others”, attended Colorado State University, eventually graduating from Marquette University School of Dentistry in 1997. Even before graduating dental school, his father Dr. Stuart Bennett sent David to train with some of the finest aesthetic and reconstructive dentists in the world, and it was at this time that Dr. Bennett rejected the popular trend in cosmetic dentistry of making smiles that look artificial, and embraced a style of creating smiles are natural, radiant, and unique to each client. He felt this approach was more fitting to his vision of recreating nature’s perfection, and to the natural, health driven lifestyle of Colorado. Since then, he has taught dentists internationally his approach to biomimetic aesthetic and reconstructive techniques, and performed over a thousand smile transformations, each smile as unique as the person it is created for. When asked why he is so passionate about aesthetic dentistry he says:

“Aesthetic dentistry is really about self-transformation… becoming your very best self. The magic of transforming someone’s smile is not only the change that you see in their appearance; it is the change that occurs on the inside. It is the change in their love for themselves, in their self-confidence, and in their belief in what they can achieve. I have had clients in a career transition change their smile and proceed to get the job of their dreams. I have had single and divorced clients change their smile specifically to attract someone special and they end up meeting the love of their life. While I can’t promise these intangible benefits to every client when we perform a smile transformation, this kind of personal growth happens more often than not. So while it is wonderful to see a smile transformed, it is even more impactful to see a client’s life elevated.”

David believes in living life in balance. While he is passionate about dentistry, he puts equal importance on spending time with family and friends, recreation and self-discovery, and cultivating his creativity. His wife Tricia, daughter Ayla, son Layten, and golden retriever Yeti all feel blessed to call the Washington Park neighborhood home, and enjoy the vibrant lifestyle the park and local restaurants offer. David’s favorite quote is “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams… live the life you have imagined” by Henry David Thoreau, and he does his best to live his life that way. A creator at heart, David will always have at least one passion project he is involved with, whether that be writing and recording music, designing and developing interesting architectural projects, writing fiction, or exploring his limits on skis. Giving back to the community is important to the Bennett family, who are active supporters of Tennyson Center for Children and the Denver Rescue Mission.
