Caring for Smiles in Our Community
Choosing an orthodontist is a bigger decision than it looks. You’re not just picking a place for braces, you’re trusting someone with your child’s comfort, your family’s budget, and a result you’ll see in every photo for years. So you start researching, comparing practices and treatment plans, and the questions pile up fast: Will my child actually feel comfortable here? Can we afford this without sacrificing everything else? Who’s going to give me honest answers instead of a sales pitch?
Those are the exact questions our families had before they found us. Many tell us they did extensive research and compared several practices first. What they remember most is the moment they finally felt at ease.
Here’s what they share with us again and again:
To parents and kids, in plain language that everyone could follow.
Even the nervous ones leave looking forward to coming back.
Honest guidance and clear options, with no pressure to commit.
Affordable care that fits real budgets.

For over 30 years, Dr. John A. Benkovich has been helping families across Annapolis and Chester smile with confidence. Since 1993, his approach has stayed refreshingly simple: treat every patient like a neighbor, explain everything in plain language, and make each visit efficient, personal, and genuinely enjoyable.
That patient-first philosophy is the heart of our practice. Dr. Benkovich believes great smiles lead to happy, confident people, and there’s nothing he finds more rewarding than seeing that transformation, one family at a time.
He’s also a lifelong learner with deep training behind that friendly chairside manner:
Outside the office, Dr. Benkovich and his wife, Maureen, love to travel and stay active. He’s a dedicated swimmer in the U.S. Masters Swimming program at the Naval Academy.
I had a wonderful experience feom the moment I called to make appointment to the moment I walked my children our of the office. The location of the office is easy to find. There is enough parking. The front office was welcoming and helpful. The office was nice and up to date. Dr. Benkovich is an expert with wonderful bedside manner. He used x-rays, pictures, models, any my children’s mouth to explain their treatment options. My kids felt comfortable.
I highly recommend Dr. Benkovich’s practice. We travel from PA every 4-6 weeks to have my kids get the best care. I was his patient at some point, and I received the needed dental care I never had before as a child. The staff assisting him during examinations, finances, and scheduling are very professional, knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly.
Dr. Benkovich is very good with the kids, he’s friendly and my son loves him. The staff is also great. We had a wonderful experience. They also worked out a payment plan that worked for our family.
Professional and clean office with a laid-back family feeling. Dr. Benkovich was very knowledgeable and explained everything so that not only I, but my 10 year old, could understand.
Dr. Benkovich and his team are amazing! My sister, my children, and I have all been/still are patients. We drive from Ellicott City because it’s worth the quality work and caring environment he and his team provide. Highly recommend!
Thanks to Dr. Benkovich, Lauren has perfectly straight teeth. Tyler is still in treatment and we are positive we will get the same results. We enjoy all the staff at the office. They always have a friendly smile and friendly reminders!(the scanning machines are cool)
The nicest office staff of any Medical Office in Annapolis! Cindy is amazing and all the hygenests are so friendly! Doctor B is wonderful and definitely knows his stuff!
I imagine my son was nervous to see an orthodontist. However, the staff was warm, kind, and patient, and they all made my son feel comfortable. As a parent I appreciate that so much!
A healthier, more confident smile shouldn’t mean stretching your budget to the breaking point, and it never has to here. We keep our pricing honest and transparent, with flexible options built around real family life.
