Extensive Experience and Advanced Clinical Expertise
Dr. Peter B. Pryor Jr. brings a deep passion for oral health and a wealth of advanced clinical training to our community. After completing his undergraduate studies at Wake Forest University, Dr. Pryor earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2015.
To provide the highest tier of care for his patients, he chose to complete a highly competitive, two-year General Practice Residency (GPR) at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. Through this rigorous hospital program, Dr. Pryor developed a vast breadth of specialized knowledge spanning both hospital and private practice settings. His extensive residency training focused on advanced fields, including:
- Oral surgery and the precise placement of dental implants
- Treating severely medically compromised and special needs patients
- Managing complex orofacial trauma and acute dental infections
- Pediatric dentistry and IV conscious sedation for optimal patient comfort
Following his residency, Dr. Pryor dedicated years to serving an underserved community in Alabama before returning home to the Clemmens and Winston-Salem area, where he became a practice partner and owner within a prominent local dental group. Now, after 10 years of successful private practice, Dr. Pryor is thrilled to establish his own independent practice at Pryor Dental, doing what he loves most.
Commitment to lifelong learning is central to Dr. Pryor’s practice philosophy. He maintains active memberships in the American Dental Association (ADA), the North Carolina Dental Society, the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), the Seattle Study Club, and the Spear Study Group. Furthermore, he has completed rigorous advanced post-graduate training at the world-renowned Dawson Academy, ensuring his diagnostic and treatment methods represent the forefront of modern dentistry.
