Welcome to Your Dental Home in Greensboro

We're not your typical dental office. At Lakeside Dental, we've created something special—a place where advanced expertise meets genuine care, where families feel at home, and where Dr. Ben Bacon combines military precision with a down-to-earth approach that puts even the most anxious patients at ease.

How We Got Started 

Dr. Bacon didn't just choose dentistry—he excelled at it from day one. As valedictorian of NYU College of Dentistry and a former Air Force dentist, he brings both academic brilliance and real-world expertise to every patient interaction. Treating complex trauma cases in high-pressure situations taught him to stay calm under pressure and gave him the steady, reassuring presence that patients trust.

What makes him special isn't just his credentials—it's his authentic personality. He's the kind of dentist who remembers your kids' names, asks about your vacation, and makes you feel like you're visiting a friend who happens to be incredibly skilled at fixing teeth.

Technology Meets Expertise 

We've invested heavily in cutting-edge equipment—same-day crowns, 3D imaging, laser dentistry—because Dr. Bacon believes you deserve the most advanced care available. But technology is only as good as the person using it, and that's where his comprehensive training makes all the difference.

Unlike most practices that refer complex cases elsewhere, Dr. Bacon handles everything from pediatric care to oral surgery to cosmetic procedures right here. His expertise in IV sedation, implant placement, and advanced techniques means your family gets specialist-level care without the specialist runaround.

Making Dentistry Actually Comfortable

Dental anxiety affects millions of people, and Dr. Bacon takes it seriously. His specialized training in sedation dentistry—from mild laughing gas to IV sedation—means he can customize your comfort level for any procedure. He's one of the few dentists who can perform complex surgeries while keeping patients completely relaxed. This commitment to comfort extends beyond sedation. Every aspect of your experience, from our welcoming office atmosphere to Dr. Bacon's patient explanations, is designed to reduce stress and build confidence in your dental care.

Complete Family Care

From toddlers taking their first steps to grandparents wanting to enjoy their favorite foods again, Dr. Bacon handles every stage of your family's dental journey. His pediatric training helps children feel secure and comfortable, while his advanced surgical expertise gives adults confidence in procedures like implants, wisdom teeth removal, and complex restorative work. Combined with cosmetic services and time-saving technology like same-day crowns, you get everything your family needs without the hassle of multiple specialists and referrals.
