Convenient Access from Charlotte
From an Uptown office tower to the far edges of the outer belt, finding a dentist Charlotte, NC commuters can actually fit into a workweek comes down to hours and roads. Beyond Smiles Dental has a Charlotte address at the southern end of Park Rd, where it becomes Johnston Rd, and the drive from Uptown takes about 20 minutes. Weekday visits start at 8:00 AM, and Saturday hours run from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Starting at the Charlotte Transportation Center on E Trade St, head south on S Brevard St and turn onto E Brooklyn Village Ave. Continue to Kenilworth Ave, which leads onto Park Rd. Then simply stay on Park Rd heading south for about 7 miles until it turns into Johnston Rd, and the office appears almost immediately.
The full trip is close to 10 miles and toll-free. Our address is 10106 Johnston Rd Ste C, Charlotte, NC 28210, and our Google Maps pin gives you live directions from anywhere in town. Weekday rush hour on Park Rd adds time, so give an early appointment some extra room. Patients in SouthPark and Montclaire South have shorter drives, each covered on its own page.
A Dental Home That Fits a Big-City Schedule
Charlotte is a large and spread-out city across Mecklenburg County, and its residents cover a lot of ground every week. Interstates such as I-77 and I-485 carry commuters in from the edges, and the LYNX Blue Line runs light rail from Uptown out through the southern neighborhoods. For many people, the hardest part of dental care is simply finding an hour that does not collide with work.
That is why the office opens at 8:00 AM on weekdays and keeps Saturday hours. An early cleaning can come before a morning meeting, and a Saturday visit avoids taking any time off at all. The practice also sees the whole household, from toddlers to seniors, so one trip can cover more than one family member.
Charlotte households also juggle care for several people at once. A parent may need a crown while a teenager starts aligners and a grandparent needs a denture adjusted, and keeping everyone with one dentist simplifies that.
Light-rail riders have a handy option. Commuters who leave a car at the I-485/South Blvd Station park and ride are about 8 minutes from the office by car, taking South Blvd, Pineville Rd and a short stretch of I-485 to NC 51 and Park Rd. A rider can book an 8:00 AM visit and drive on to the station afterward.
What Busy Charlotte Professionals Should Know About Their Teeth
Desk jobs and long commutes come with their own dental habits. Coffee through the morning, snacks at the desk and skipped lunches all feed the bacteria that cause decay. Finishing drinks rather than sipping for hours, and rinsing with water afterward, gives enamel a break.
Stress shows up in the mouth too. Clenching and grinding wear down enamel, crack fillings and leave jaw muscles sore, often with headaches by the afternoon. A night-time occlusal guard protects the teeth, and Dr. Surampudi also offers therapeutic facial rejuvenation treatment for bruxism, which reduces excess bite force and can relieve jaw discomfort and migraines.
Many adults also carry anxiety from a bad experience years ago. The office offers dental anxiety and comfortable care with a calm, judgment-free approach, and Dr. Surampudi is trained in sedation dentistry. Treatment is explained before it starts.
People who relocate for work often arrive with dental care half finished, such as a crown that was started elsewhere or aligners from another provider. Bring any records you have, and Dr. Surampudi will review them with fresh x-rays before recommending next steps. That keeps treatment moving without repeating work you have already done.
Gum disease is common among adults and often causes little discomfort at first. Bleeding when you floss, gums that pull back from the teeth and breath that will not freshen are early signs, and scaling and root planing treats the problem below the gumline before it loosens teeth.
Technology helps keep visits efficient. An iTero intraoral scanner replaces impression trays for aligners and crowns, CBCT 3D imaging supports implant planning, and a dental microscope guides precise root canal work.
Popular Treatments with a Dentist Charlotte, NC Commuters Can Reach
Invisalign®
Clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly, which suits client-facing jobs. Invisalign® starts with an iTero scan and a custom plan, followed by regular check-ins.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Small changes such as bonding a chipped edge or whitening coffee stains can make a noticeable difference. Larger plans with veneers use digital smile design, so Cosmetic Dentistry starts with a clear picture of the goal.
Dental Implants
From single-tooth implants to full-arch options such as All-On-X, implant care is planned with CBCT imaging. Dental Implants are placed in the office by Dr. Surampudi.
Root Canal Therapy
Microscope-guided treatment saves teeth that might otherwise be lost to infection. Root Canal Therapy ends the throbbing pain of an inflamed nerve.
Emergency Dentistry
A filling that falls out at a lunch meeting or a sudden abscess needs an answer quickly. With Emergency Dentistry, the office aims for a same-day visit whenever possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Beyond Smiles Dental from Charlotte, and how do I get there?
From the Charlotte Transportation Center in Uptown, the office is close to 10 miles away, about a 20-minute drive. Take S Brevard St, E Brooklyn Village Ave and Kenilworth Ave to Park Rd, then follow Park Rd south until it becomes Johnston Rd. For a dentist Charlotte, NC residents can reach from Uptown, it is one long, toll-free road.
Can I get to your office using the LYNX Blue Line?
Partly. The Blue Line runs south from Uptown to the I-485/South Blvd Station, which has a park and ride, and the office is about 8 minutes by car from there. Riders can take an 8:00 AM slot and then drive on to the station. The final leg follows South Blvd, I-485 and NC 51 to Park Rd.
What is therapeutic facial rejuvenation for bruxism?
It is a treatment Dr. Surampudi offers for people who clench or grind heavily. By reducing excessive bite forces, it helps protect implants, crowns and other restorations, and it can relieve jaw discomfort and migraines linked to grinding. It is often paired with an occlusal guard worn at night after an exam confirms the source of the problem.
Is sedation available if I get nervous?
Yes. Dr. Surampudi is trained in sedation dentistry, and sedation options are available for anxious patients during treatments such as extractions. The team also takes a calm, judgment-free approach and explains each step before it happens. Talk with the office about your concerns when you book.
Will I need to see a separate surgeon for a dental implant?
Usually not. Dr. Surampudi places implants in the office herself, from single teeth to full-arch options such as All-On-X. CBCT 3D imaging guides the planning, and PRF or PRP from your own blood can support healing and bone grafting. Implants start at $1,999 (abutment and crown not included).
