Benton & Nelson DDS

Welcome to Nelson & Benton, DDS!

Are you delaying fixing your smile? Has it been years since you last visited a Winston-Salem dentist? You are not the only one. Many of my patients express embarrassment, saying, "Doc, I'm sorry it took me so long to come to see you." The apprehension you're feeling mirrors what many of my patients experienced before visiting me. They feared:

  • Feeling shamed or guilted for delaying dental care.
  • Discovering their smile was beyond repair.
  • Experiencing discomfort during treatments.
  • Dealing with lengthy treatment plans.

What our patients say about us
  • “Great place, i've been a patient here for over 4 years and I highly recommend. Very friendly staff!”
  • “Fantastic office! There is never any wait time and the hygienists are always gentle and through. All of the staff and doctors are very nice and the office is very clean and comfortable. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else.”
  • “I used to live in Winston-Salem but I moved to Raleigh several years ago. After trying several dentists in Raleigh I decided to switch back to Dr Benton's office. I didn't like the high pressure sales tactics of the other offices and felt more like a number than a person. The drive is well worth it!”

Most effective, pain-free numbing techniques. During any treatment, Drs. Nelson and Benton pride themselves on using state-of-the-art techniques to deliver painless numbing and precise results. We utilize the latest and most effective methods for anesthesia so you can have a relaxing, stress-free appointment.
