Dr. Weitecha discovered his interest in dentistry at a young age. After graduating high school, he spent time working in the orthodontic practice run by his friend's father. He graduated from the University of San Diego in 1996 with a degree in biology. Dr. Weitecha then went on to Tufts School of Dental Medicine where he earned his dental degree. He completed a five-week externship in Togus, Maine, with the Veterans Association Hospital and fell in love with the state, deciding that one day he would open his practice there.

After graduating, Dr. Weitecha earned Mastership and Fellowship awards from the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD). He earned a Fellowship award from the International Congress of Implantology (ICOI). When he is not working with patients in the office or volunteering at the many organizations he is a part of, Dr. Weitecha attends continuing education programs that keep him current with the latest dental discoveries. He has completed programs with The Misch Implant Institute, The Dawson Academy, The New England Mastertrack, and Spear Education. He trained with Dr. Laliberte before becoming a mentor himself for Dr. Vayanos and Dr. Dumont.
