Dr. Benson purchased his current practice from the admired Dr. Robert Youngquist in 1998. He and his wife, Dione, our office manager, have devoted their life to their practice. In fact, they initially purchased a home within a few blocks from the office, where they still reside. They have two spunky Yorkies, Oliver and Lily, who keep them on their toes.

His close connection to the community has led to support for local schools and organizations such as Cory Elementary, Bromwell Elementary, Graland Country Day School, Rocky Mountain School of Expeditionary Learning, St. Vincent de Paul, Montessori School of Denver, The Richard Lambert Foundation, and The Westernaires Horsecapades, to name a few.

Working and living in the heart of beautiful Denver enables Dr. Benson to participate fully in many of his hobbies, including trail running/hiking, cycling, skiing, woodworking, and sporting clay competitions. Dr. Benson loves Colorado.

In addition to his private practice and closeness to his community, Dr. Benson is a member of the Meridian Dental Study Club, a local chapter of the Seattle Study Club. The Seattle Study Club is an international network of doctors interested in furthering their knowledge to provide excellent care.

Other memberships include the American Dental Association, Colorado Dental Association, Metropolitan Denver Dental Society, Roth Williams International Society of Orthodontics, Pierre Fauchard Academy, and American College of Dentists. Dr. Benson’s memberships in these dental associations help him to stay current on the latest and most scientifically based technologies to incorporate into his practice.
