Keith Hollinger, DMD

Dr. Keith Hollinger

Chair: Connecticut

Originally from Alabama, Dr. Hollinger grew up in Massachusetts. At the ripe age of 12, he realized he wanted to be a dentist. After graduating from the University of Massachusetts in 1989, he was straight off to Tufts for his dental training. Following graduation, Dr. Hollinger served 2 years with the Indian Health Service/Public Health Service. Stationed on the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico, he provided care for a well-underserved population.

In private practice since 1996, Dr. Hollinger has completed extensive training in orthodontics with the International Association of Orthodontics. It was through this organization that he was exposed to his true passion, helping patients with sleep apnea. Dr. Hollinger has begun his transition out of general dentistry and in 2018 opened Central Connecticut Orofacial Pain and Sleep Medicine, where he exclusively treats patients suffering from snoring, sleep apnea, and other airway issues and orofacial pain syndromes.

Dr. Hollinger lives in Connecticut with his wife Laura (they interviewed together at dental school but didn't get married until 27 years later!) with their 5 children. He enjoys travel, crossword puzzles, playing guitar, and go-karting.
