Your Trusted Dental Partner in Greensboro

When dental emergencies strike, we're here the same day. When you need comprehensive care, we handle it all under one roof. When convenience matters, we make it happen.

From Corporate to Community-Centered Care

Dr. Colten Butler saw an opportunity to transform how dental care is delivered in Greensboro. Taking over from a corporate practice, he's building something better—a family-focused dental home where emergency care isn't an afterthought, it's our specialty.

As a father of four who understands the real challenges families face, Dr. Butler created Haw River Dental to solve the problems he saw every day: patients waiting days for emergency care, families shuttling between multiple offices for different treatments, and the frustration of navigating insurance and scheduling.

Located conveniently in the same plaza as Costco and TJ Maxx, we've made quality dental care as accessible as your weekend shopping trip.

Where Emergency Care Meets Comprehensive Solutions

We envision a dental practice where no one suffers through dental pain because we can't fit you in. Where families get all their dental needs met in one place, by one trusted team. Where speaking Spanish isn't a barrier to great care, and where your busy schedule actually works with your dental appointments.

Our vision is simple: dental care that works around your life, not the other way around.

Delivering Complete Care When and How You Need It

We exist to eliminate the barriers between you and excellent dental health:

  • Same-day emergency relief - because pain can't wait for next week's opening
  • Comprehensive services under one roof - from cleanings to implants, we handle it all
  • Bilingual care - fluent Spanish services for our diverse community
  • Insurance-friendly approach - working with MetLife, Delta Dental, UHC, Humana and offering financing
  • Convenient scheduling - early morning appointments and flexible hours
  • Family-centered treatment - care that makes sense for real families with real schedules.
