MEET DR. BENTON
Dr. Nathan Benton is passionate about providing thoughtful, patient-centered dental care with a focus on long-term health and comfort. He earned his undergraduate degree in Biology, with a minor in History, from SUNY New Paltz, before going on to complete his Doctor of Dental Surgery at Touro College of Dental Medicine. He then refined his clinical skills during a residency at New York Medical College – Phelps Memorial Hospital, where he gained hands-on experience treating a wide range of patient needs.

He finds the most fulfillment in relieving dental pain and restoring function, helping patients get back to smiling, eating, and living with confidence.

Originally from Albany, New York, Dr. Benton has called New Paltz home for nearly a decade. An avid outdoorsman, he enjoys jogging, hiking, and biking around the Hudson Valley, as well as traveling to America’s National Parks with his family. He also loves cooking and experimenting with fun meals to share with loved ones.
