Dr. Peter Munk has a wonderful reputation practicing quality dentistry in Connecticut for over 25 years. He brings tremendous value to our practice in all aspects of family dentistry including: crowns, night-guards for grinding, sport-guards for athletes, veneers, bleaching and whitening, periodontal care (cleaning, polishing, scaling), implant restorations, dentures, snoring appliances, cosmetic restorations, and caring for patients of all ages. We are very fortunate to have such a talented, gentle and experienced dentist joining our professional team. We are confident you will be pleased with Dr. Munks great sense of humor, and his conservative approach to treatment.
Dr. Jon F. Ackerman attended The University of Virginia, where he majored in biology and was published for his undergraduate research in genetics. He attended dental school at the top-rated University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and graduated with a DDS degree in 1988, then completed his general practice residency at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, where he was selected from amongst all his fellow residents to serve as Chief Resident for his second year. After gaining a broad experience in all dental specialties while at LIJ, Dr. Ackerman was accepted to Boston Universitys prestigious Goldman School of Dentistry and obtained his degree in the dental specialty of prosthodontics.
Dr. Ackerman has lectured extensively on many topics in dentistry, including dental care considerations of the aging patient, cosmetic dentistry, and the utilization of dental implants for patients with both simple and complex dental needs. He is one of the few dentists in the area who has comprehensively incorporated the use of dental lasers into his practice for the benefit of his patients. Dr. Ackerman has completed extensive training in dental laser technology, and can provide laser treatments for a wide spectrum of dental needs, including No Shot, No Drill fillings, less invasive gum surgeries that result in decreased postoperative discomfort and faster healing time, treatment of facial pain and TMJ disorders, and teeth bleaching.
Dr. Ackerman prides himself on providing individualized, personal dental care to all of his patients. While Dr. Ackerman is a prosthodontist, he is happy to deliver general dental care to all patients, including routine dental care such as cleanings and fillings. In fact, many patients who initially sought treatment from Dr. Ackerman because of their complex dental needs now consider him their family dentist for their parents, spouses, and teenage to adult children.

I highly recommend Norwalk Dental Associates. Dr. Jonathan Ackerman and Carmen are so professional and caring. Patient care is truly their #1 priority. I was in need of dental work and Dr. Ackerman explained everything so carefully. From the reception desk to the treatment room everyone is friendly and helpful.

Norwalk Dental has the best hygienist I've ever experienced in my life. She is kind and gentle and does a wonderful cleaning. Dr. Arutt is the best - always trying to do a simple fix before undertaking something more involved. His nurse/assistant is also absolutely terrific.

They were as nice, professional, patient and clean as the five start reviews suggested. They were so accommodating even though we had some issues finding my insurance provider. The doctor and his assistant were detailed and took their time with me making sure I was comfortable and told me what they were doing along the way. Overall, I'd recommend them.
