David Bonanno, D.M.D
Dr. David Bonanno is the proud owner of Anchor Dental & Implant Center, which he acquired in July 2024. Originally from New York but raised primarily in California, Dr. Bonanno pursued his undergraduate degree at San Diego State University and earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine from Roseman University College of Dental Medicine. He and his wife, Sandra, chose to settle closer to family when they welcomed their son, Leo, in 2022.
Dr. Bonanno’s journey into dentistry began early, inspired by a church mentor and hands-on experience as a dental assistant during high school. His passion for transforming smiles and improving oral health is matched by his dedication to providing care in the most comfortable and efficient way possible. He discovered his calling during college while volunteering at UCSD’s Pre-Dental Society student-run clinics, where he saw firsthand the profound impact of dentistry on underserved communities.
A lifelong learner, Dr. Bonanno has extensive training in implant dentistry, IV sedation, cosmetic procedures, and root canal therapy. He is an active member of the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, and San Diego County Dental Society, organizations that reflect his commitment to excellence and innovation in the field.
Outside the office, Dr. Bonanno enjoys an active lifestyle with his wife and son. Together, they relish outdoor adventures, including hiking, surfing, camping, and spending time at the beach.
