Get to know Dentist Dr. Mark A. Venincasa, who serves patients in Dallas, Texas.

Dr. Venincasa has been providing quality dental care in an honest, ethical, conservative, and professional manner since 1986 at his private practice in Dallas, Texas, with much success. 

His expertise include cosmetic, full-mouth restorative, and patient-centered dentistry. Hundreds of his patients have entrusted him to their professional dental care for over 25 years, recognizing him to be value-conscious and quality-oriented.

Since the age of four, Dr. Venincasa harbored a childhood dream of becoming a dentist, and that dream continues to shape his practice today. His vision revolves around placing the patient at the center, emphasizing traditional values like honesty, integrity, friendliness, sincerity, respect, and the golden rule of treating others as he would like to be treated.

In every facet of his practice, these core values are evident. Patients value his personal attentiveness, genuine caring demeanor, calm presence, gentle touch, interest in their lives, and the time he takes to provide individualized care. Among the objectives of his practice is the commitment to delivering care that not only meets immediate needs but also contributes to saving patients both time and money throughout their lives.

Born in Englewood, New Jersey, located just across the Hudson River from Yankee Stadium in New York City, Dr. Venincasa and his family moved to Dallas when he was 14 years old. He attended Texas A&M University, where he was in the University Honors Program, and graduated Cum Laude in 1983. He then went on to earn his Doctorate in Dental Surgery from University of Texas Health in San Antonio, graduating on the Dean’s List in 1986.

Among his professional dental affiliations, Dr. Venincasa is an active member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, and the Dallas County Dental Society.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

Dr. Venincasa’s success is rooted in traditional and Judeo-Christian values, diligent hard work, unwavering dedication, a deep sense of empathy for all patients, a laser focus on quality, and the ability to connect with patients.

Among his various accolades include Texas Super Dentist 2022 by SuperDentists.com, Talk Award for Excellence in Patient Satisfaction 2023 by Talk Awards, #3 Dentist in Dallas 2023 by Real Yellow Pages, #1 Dentist in Dallas 2023 by Dr. Oogle, Inc., Best in Texas Top Doc 2023 by FindATopDoc.com, and America’s Best Dentists 2023 by the National Consumer Advisory Board.

Notably, the Dallas County Dental Society named Dr. Venincasa the “Young Dentist of the Year” in 1989. Since then, his dental practice has won much recognition.

Happily married to his wife, Lisa Cahill of Longview, Texas since 1991, they are the proud parents of five beautiful children. They were active parishioners at Prince of Peace Catholic Church in Plano, Texas for over 29 years.

However, on June 20, 2020, after six years of study and formation, Dr. Venincasa was ordained as a permanent deacon in the Diocese of Dallas. He was and currently is assigned by the bishop as a deacon at All Saints Catholic Church in Dallas. He applies his gifts of wisdom, knowledge, kindness, generosity, justice, and love of neighbor to all he encounters; this benefits his dental patients a great deal. 

 Beyond his professional commitments, Dr. Venincasa has also devoted time to coaching, overseeing twenty soccer seasons and contributing to the coaching of four baseball teams.
