We know your community runs on reputation, so you should go with the orthodontists who’ve earned theirs! That’s where Designer Smiles by Benton comes in. Dr. John Benton and Dr. Barry Benton have helped countless families in Oxford and Pell City feel right at home in the orthodontic chair, and that same trusted care now reaches neighbors just down the road in Anniston. Let’s look at how experience plays a role in making that local trust worth it.
Time-Tested Care with a Local Focus
True experience means knowing what works, learning from thousands of cases, and understanding the people behind the smiles. Dr. John Benton and Dr. Barry Benton have spent decades shaping confident smiles for families in Oxford, Pell City, and beyond. They’ve seen it all. Tricky bite patterns. Complex cases.

For patients, that often means fewer surprises, smoother appointments, and results that feel just right!
And because they’re local, this experienced father-son team understands the pace of life here. Whether your teen plays baseball at Choccolocco Park or your weekends include stops at Big Time Café in Anniston, their team works around your real-life routine.
Next, we’ll take a look at how their experience pairs with modern options to make care feel easier from start to finish.
Wisdom You Can Feel in Every Appointment
There’s a difference between just checking boxes and truly understanding what makes a smile transformation work. Dr. John Benton and Dr. Barry Benton bring years of hands-on experience to the table, and it shows in the way they approach each case. They never rush you into treatment, and they prioritize reading the signs, pacing things just right, and knowing when to pause or pivot.
Here’s what real-world experience looks like in action:
- Catching small shifts before they turn into big problems
