Da Vinci Dental, a practice specializing in advanced aesthetic dentistry, has been recognized as a 2026 Castle Connolly Center of Excellence. In addition, its founders, Beau Keller, DDS, and Andrew Keller, DMD, have each been named 2026 Castle Connolly Top Dentists. Only 10% of the nation's licensed dentists receive the Top Dentist designation each year, according to the announcement.
The dual recognition highlights the practice's commitment to clinical leadership and high-quality patient outcomes. Dr. Beau Keller, a cosmetic dentist and owner of Da Vinci Dental, and his brother Dr. Andrew Keller, focus exclusively on custom porcelain veneers and comprehensive smile design. The practice operates locations in Bellevue, Washington, and Newport Beach, California.
"Being named Castle Connolly Top Dentists is a real honor, because it reflects the trust of our peers and, ultimately, the patients who have trusted us with their smiles," said Dr. Beau Keller. "At Da Vinci Dental, porcelain veneers are all we do. We personally design every smile and focus on minimal-prep and no-prep veneers that preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible. Our philosophy is simple: a new smile should look like it has always been yours, and every patient should see their smile before treatment begins."
Da Vinci Dental prioritizes minimal-prep and no-prep techniques to preserve natural tooth structure. Treatment plans emphasize clear communication and visual planning, ensuring every patient can preview and approve their individualized smile design prior to any procedure. Key procedures include Porcelain Veneers, Drill-free Veneers™, Minimal Drill Veneers™, Digital Smile Design, and Custom Smile Restoration. The practice features a specialized clinical workflow where Dr. Beau Keller personally designs every smile using digital smile design software rather than delegating the design process to an outside dental laboratory.
Dr. Andrew Keller completed his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) training at Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine, gaining extensive clinical expertise in restorative and aesthetic procedures. Dr. Beau Keller completed his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree at the University of Washington and is a Fellow of the International Academy for Dental-Facial Esthetics (IADFE). He has completed thousands of custom veneer cases and was named a Seattle Met Top Dentist in 2022. He also contributed to Da Vinci Dental being recognized as Bellevue Lifestyle Magazine's Best Dental Practice of 2025.
