Meet Our Ellington, CT Dentists Jonathan Zahner, DMD

Before Dr. Jonathan Zahner was working alongside his father and brother at Zahner Dental, he pursued another line of work: engineering. After graduating from the University of Connecticut with his Master's in Civil Engineering, he went on to work for a regional engineering firm. However, it soon became clear to him that he needed more hands-on fulfillment and felt a need to be in the service of others, so he returned to the University of Connecticut and earned his Doctorate of Dental Medicine. Now, he feels that the switch to dentistry was the best decision he ever made! He is also a member of the Tolland County Dental Society, the Connecticut State Dental Association, and the American Dental Association.

Dr. Jonathan provides general and surgical dental procedures for patients of all ages, as well as offering Invisalign treatment for crooked smiles. He loves that dentistry allows him to fulfill his passions of artistic form, mechanical engineering concepts, and building long-lasting relationships with people from all walks of life.  Whether the treatment plan is large or small, Dr. Jon works hard to provide exceptional dentistry with your comfort as a priority.

Dr. Jonathan loves spending time, especially outdoors, with his five young children.  His wife Amy is a busy mother and helps in the family business as Zahner Dental’s bookkeeper.  Dr. Jon also enjoys woodworking, home renovation, hiking, biking, and photographing New England's beauty.
