The Wells Family Dental Group is pleased to announce the opening of its newest practice in Chatham Park, Pittsboro, NC. As the ninth location within the Wells Family Dental network, the Chatham Park office represents a continued commitment to expanding access to high-quality, patient-centered oral health care throughout the Triangle region. Appointments are now available.

A Growing Commitment to the Pittsboro Community

Chatham County is one of the fastest-growing counties in North Carolina, with its population increasing by more than 25 percent over the past decade.1 Much of that growth is concentrated in and around Pittsboro, where the 7,100-acre Chatham Park master-planned development is rapidly transforming the landscape with new residential neighborhoods, commercial centers, and community amenities.2 As thousands of new residents establish roots in the area, the need for accessible, dependable dental care has grown in kind.

The addition of the Chatham Park location reflects the Wells Family Dental Group’s dedication to meeting that need directly, ensuring that families, professionals, and individuals throughout Pittsboro and western Chatham County have a trusted dental home within reach. For those searching for a dentist in Pittsboro NC, the new office provides a convenient, comprehensive option backed by the established reputation of the Wells Family Dental network. Each of our locations is built on the same foundational principle: excellent oral health begins with a genuine, personal connection between patients and their care team. The Chatham Park office carries that philosophy forward in a state-of-the-art facility designed to deliver a stress-free experience from the moment patients walk through the door.

Conveniently Located in the Heart of Chatham Park

The new office is situated in the Northwood Landing development of Chatham Park, which encompasses thousands of acres of mixed-use residential, commercial, and recreational space on the north/northeast side of Pittsboro, making it one of the Triangle’s most dynamic and rapidly expanding communities. It is situated in close proximity to myriad established Chatham Park neighborhoods, including The Vineyards, NoVi (North Village), and Tessera at Mosaic. 

The location offers easy access from U.S. Highways 64 and 501, two of the area’s primary corridors, placing the practice within a short drive of many of the community’s most recognized landmarks and destinations.

Nearby neighborhoods

Residents of The Vineyards, NoVi, Medley at Northwood Landing, The Guild at Mosaic, and the broader Chatham Park community will find the office especially accessible. Established Pittsboro neighborhoods, the town of Siler City, and the Chapel Hill–Carrboro corridor are also within convenient driving distance.

Shopping, Dining, and Entertainment

MOSAIC at Chatham Park, the 44-acre mixed-use gateway to the development, is home to a growing collection of restaurants, retail businesses, and professional services, including Cafe Root Cellar, House of Hops, and Marco’s Pizza at Penguin Place. The Hampton Inn & Suites and 79° West Innovation Hub further anchor the MOSAIC district. Downtown Pittsboro, with its charming mix of locally owned boutiques, antique shops, galleries, and eateries along Hillsboro Street, is just minutes away.

Parks, Recreation, and Nature

Chatham Park features more than 11 miles of greenways, multi-use trails, and sidewalks connecting its neighborhoods and open spaces. The Chatham Park YMCA, a 36,000-square-foot facility that opened in 2025, offers outdoor pools, fitness studios, indoor and open-air gymnasiums, and youth programming. Knight Farm Community Park and Paddles Swim & Pickleball provide additional recreational options within the development. Jordan Lake State Recreation Area, North Carolina’s most popular state park, is located just east of Pittsboro and offers nearly 14,000 acres of reservoir, over 1,000 campsites, swim beaches, hiking trails, and opportunities for boating, fishing, and birdwatching—including sightings of resident bald eagles.

Unique Local Attractions

Carolina Tiger Rescue, a nationally recognized nonprofit wildcat sanctuary, is located in Pittsboro and draws more than 20,000 visitors annually for guided educational tours. Fearrington Village, a beloved destination known for its award-winning dining, distinctive shops, and iconic Belted Galloway cows, is situated just south of town along U.S. 501.

Easy Commuter Access

Pittsboro is approximately 30 miles west of downtown Raleigh and within convenient reach of Chapel Hill, Research Triangle Park, and Raleigh-Durham International Airport. U.S. 64 provides a direct east-west connection to the greater Triangle, while U.S. 501 links Pittsboro to Chapel Hill and the surrounding communities.

This central positioning within one of Chatham County’s most active growth corridors means that patients can fit dental appointments seamlessly into their daily routines. For anyone seeking Pittsboro dentists who combine clinical excellence with genuine convenience, the Chatham Park location delivers on both fronts.

The Chatham Park office offers all of the hallmarks that have distinguished the Wells Family Dental Group across its eight existing locations, while also incorporating the latest advancements in dental practice design and patient comfort. Several core features define the Chatham Park experience:Chatham Park office

  • Individualized care plans: Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach, the clinical team at Chatham Park develops treatment plans that are tailored to each patient’s unique dental history, goals, and lifestyle. This personalized methodology ensures that every patient receives precisely the level of care their smile requires.
  • Transparent pricing: Financial uncertainty should never serve as a barrier to oral health. The Chatham Park office operates under a transparent pricing model, meaning patients are informed of costs upfront—before treatment begins. There are no hidden fees, and we accept most major dental insurance plans. Most importantly, our team will work proactively to ensure each patient understands their financial options.
  • Modern, state-of-the-art facilities: The new office has been outfitted with contemporary technology and designed with patient comfort as a central priority. From the reception area to the treatment rooms, the environment is crafted to put patients at ease while enabling the clinical team to deliver precise, efficient care.
  • Experienced, dedicated providers. The Chatham Park office has an experienced dental team led by Dr. Brett Wells and Dr. Morgan McClellan, two accomplished dental professionals whose combined expertise spans the full spectrum of general and family dentistry. Their commitment to continuing education, clinical excellence, and compassionate patient communication ensures that every visit is guided by providers who genuinely invest in each patient’s long-term oral health outcomes.

Comprehensive Services for Every Member of the Family

The Chatham Park office provides a broad scope of dental services, allowing patients to address preventive, restorative, cosmetic, and specialty needs under one roof. This comprehensive approach reduces the need for referrals to outside providers and ensures continuity of care across every stage of treatment. Whether patients are new to the area or have been part of the community for years, finding the best dentist Pittsboro, NC, has to offer has never been more straightforward. Services available at the Chatham Park location include:staff at Chatham Park office

  • Routine exams and cleanings: Preventive care remains the cornerstone of long-term oral health. Regular examinations allow the clinical team to identify potential concerns—such as early-stage decay, enamel erosion, or changes in soft tissue—before they progress into more complex and costly conditions. Professional cleanings complement daily home care by removing plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot fully address.
  • Cosmetic dentistry: For patients seeking to enhance the appearance of their smile, the Chatham Park office offers a range of cosmetic treatments—including veneers, crowns, teeth whitening, and more—designed to improve tooth alignment, shape, and overall appearance.
  • Gum disease therapy: Periodontal disease affects nearly half of all adults in the United States.3 If left untreated, it can lead to tissue damage, bone loss, and eventual tooth loss. The Chatham Park team provides targeted gum disease therapies aimed at halting the progression of periodontal conditions, restoring gum health, and helping patients maintain stable results over time.
  • Pediatric dentistry: Establishing positive dental habits early in life is critical to a child’s long-term oral health. The Chatham Park office is equipped to care for younger patients in an environment designed to be welcoming and age-appropriate, helping children build comfort and confidence with dental visits from an early age. We also have a close partnership with Northwood High School, which is just down the street.
  • Sedation dentistry: Dental anxiety is a well-documented barrier to care, preventing many individuals from seeking the treatment they need. The Chatham Park office offers several sedation dentistry options for patients who experience significant apprehension, ensuring that necessary procedures can be completed comfortably and without undue stress.
  • TMJ treatment: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause chronic jaw pain, headaches, difficulty chewing, and other symptoms that diminish quality of life.4 The clinical team at Chatham Park is trained to evaluate and treat TMJ-related conditions, providing relief through individualized therapeutic approaches tailored to each patient’s diagnosis.
