Outstanding Dental Care in North Greer, SC

ProGrin Dental of North Greer is a general and family dental office at 706 N. Main Street in Greer, South Carolina, just north of downtown. The office provides preventive, cosmetic, restorative, and children's dentistry.

Patients come from throughout Greer, a city that spans both Greenville and Spartanburg counties, and from nearby communities such as Taylors and Lyman. For anyone searching for a “dentist near me” from the north side of Greer, this office is just a call away.

North Greer is one of ten ProGrin Dental offices across the Upstate. Dr. Greg Ayers and his son, Brent, founded the practice in 2012. The team still describes itself the way it always has:

“a group of dental professionals and self-proclaimed artists who want to make dentistry more relaxing and more memorable, one grin at a time.”

Dental Services at Our North Greer Office

Our North Greer office provides the following services. Most treatment plans draw on more than one category—a routine exam may turn up a cracked filling, or a cosmetic consultation may begin with restorative work—so our dentists plan care as a whole rather than one procedure at a time.

Loved by Greer Families

ProGrin Dental of North Greer is rated 4.8 stars on Google from 498+ reviews.

Kim H

Every person there was so nice. The front desk was so welcoming and helpful. I had Tonya and Adrienne. They were great. Adrienne went above and beyond to make me comfortable and do anything to ease my anxiety. She was very knowledgeable and informative. She answered all of my questions and didn’t rush me. Dr Gray and Dr Johnson are the best around. I struggle with going to the dentist. But this team made it a great experience.

Diane S

I absolutely love this Progrin office in N. Greer. All of the staff is great. They really pay attention to the details and are always so nice! They have comfort items they give everyone each visit like a warm lavender face towel, lip moisturizer, neck pillow, a blanket, knee pillow. They went the extra mile on everything. I have complete confidence in them to make my smile awesome again!

Victoria M

I had a last minute cleaning done here - I knew I needed to have some issues addressed regarding crowns/fillings. They were able to get me back in the same day to perform the crowns. I was very pleased with the work Dr. Johnson did along with her assistant. This was the best dental experience I’ve ever had! The office is super clean and inviting and the staff is very welcoming!

Lisa S

I am a new patient of Dr. Johnson at pro grin in North Greer and I am thrilled with the care that I am receiving there. The staff and the doctor are extremely caring and skilled. I had a procedure today that I was very nervous about, but it was completely painless and I couldn’t be more happy. The staff is excellent and the Dentist is a great. I recommend this Dental practice if you are looking for a new dentist.

Carol C

I had to have a crown on one of my teeth and went in yesterday to begin the process. I was nervous but Dr Gray and the entire staff was absolutely wonderful. I had ZERO pain with the procedure. Dr Gray was very gentle and made sure I was comfortable. His assistant Crystal was great as well. The office is very clean and well run. The staff is amazing and I highly recommend coming here for your dental needs. 5 stars!

Carolyn S

I was looking for a new dentist and found ProGrin Dental. I have had to have a crown and new fit for mouthguard. Have been very pleased with both. The employees are very nice and care how you feel and are comfortable. I would definitely recommend.

Rhonda L

Excellent Staff, they seemed genuinely concerned for my comfort and well-being. Never waited more than a couple of minutes to be seen. And I really appreciated that I knew what my cost would be upfront. Both Crystal and Dr Gray were excellent!!

Lisa H

I went in for a cleaning appointment and it had been some time since I had my teeth cleaned. Feeling very nervous, but Sarah made me feel at ease and explained everything in detail that I would need to have done. I would definitely recommend ProGrin of Greer.

Laura S

I’ve been a patient of Dr Gray’s for many years. It’s been a while since I’ve seen him. Made an appt & was scheduled the following week. Not even a full week later. He went straight to work on a particular tooth & was in/out within one hour. Highly suggest Dr Gray at ProGrin, North Greer! The entire staff is friendly & very knowledgeable

Richard D

I thoroughly enjoy my visits for regular cleanings and check ups! I’ve been going for about 4 years now and intend on staying. If you’re looking for professional, caring people that see you as more than the next in line, make an appointment to experience their practice.

Kristen M

I had a wonderful experience here and plan to schedule with this office indefinitely for my dental needs. The entire staff was kind and attentive, they actively listened to my concerns and thoroughly answered all of my questions. I have anxiety associated with the dentist due to several traumatic dental appointments/experiences in my past, and I was able to feel comfortable with the staff and their methods the entire time. They were gentle with the initial exam, explained the extraction process, and when the tooth was difficult to remove (it just didn’t want to be evicted, lol) they patiently and gently used different methods and tools until it finally let go. The nurse explained that a rough extraction will make healing more difficult which makes sense, and I am convinced them taking their time made a difference because my clotting and healing has gone better with this extraction than any one before. They even called a few days after to check on my recovery. I’ll never be able to compliment them enough, everything about the experience was positive and reassuring. I’ve already verbally recommended them to two people I work with. If you want kind, responsible, and proactive dental care-- choose Pro Grin.

Lee H

The front office was extremely helpful with my insurance problems. Crystal was an amazing dental assistant. I’m not very fond of the dentist office and with her fun and quick wit, she made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Gray was extremely gentle and helped me through the whole process. He even checked my insurance himself to make sure that I was covered for an implant. I HIGHLY recommend ProGrin and their amazing staff!

Meet the Doctors

Meet Our North Greer, SC Dentists

Choosing a dentist is a personal decision, and patients should be particular about it. At our North Greer office, we have two fantastic practitioners. Both earned their Doctor of Dental Medicine degrees at the Medical University of South Carolina, both chose to build their careers in the Upstate, and—for what it's worth—both are longtime Clemson fans.

Dr. Ronald Gray, dentist at ProGrin Dental of North Greer

Dr. Ronald Gray, DMD

Dr. Gray was born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina. He earned a Bachelor of Science in biology from the College of Charleston in 1991 and his Doctor of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina in 1998. He has lived in the Upstate for about 20 years. North Greer patients frequently mention him by name in their reviews.

Dr. Kinsley Johnson, dentist at ProGrin Dental of North Greer

Dr. Kinsley Johnson, DMD

Dr. Johnson is a Greer native. She earned a Bachelor of Science from Clemson University and her Doctor of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina, then returned to the Upstate to practice close to home. She is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the South Carolina Dental Association.

  • Hygienists

    Our hygienists are licensed by the state and maintain current certification in the preventive and periodontal protocols they perform, and our assistants are trained specifically for the procedures they support rather than rotated through unfamiliar roles.

  • Dental Assistants

    Our dental assistants complete formal training in radiography, infection control, and chairside patient care, and they support our dentists through every stage of treatment at our North Greer office. That means the person taking your X-rays is trained on the equipment, the instruments are prepared correctly before you sit down, and each assistant works with the same doctors and the same procedures rather than rotating through unfamiliar ones. Their experience keeps appointments moving efficiently while making sure you know what is happening and stay comfortable from start to finish.

  • Patient Care Team

    Our patient care team handles the parts of a dental visit that happen outside the treatment space: scheduling, insurance coordination, and the financial side of treatment planning at our North Greer office. They verify your benefits before treatment begins, file your claims, and give you a written estimate of your portion so the cost is settled before you commit to anything.

Inside Our Office

Tour Our North Greer Office

The North Greer office is equipped for the full range of services, including same-day crowns, which are designed, milled, and placed in one appointment instead of requiring a temporary crown and a second visit. First-time patients are offered a complimentary comfort menu at check-in, along with coffee and fresh-baked cookies.

Affordable Dental Care

Financial Information, Insurance, and Payment Options

Financial Information

ProGrin Dental works to remove financial barriers from treatment plans so cost does not stand between a patient and a healthy smile. Every treatment plan at our North Greer office comes with a written estimate of your portion, and when a plan involves several procedures, we sequence it by clinical priority so you can address what is urgent now and schedule the rest as your budget allows.

Learn about financial options

Dental Insurance

Dental insurance benefits can be confusing. Our North Greer team will help with benefit verification, claims, and paperwork. ProGrin Dental accepts plans from carriers including Ameritas, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, Delta Dental, MetLife, and UnitedHealthcare. Because coverage varies by individual plan, calling the office before your first visit gives an insurance specialist time to verify your benefits.
