Dr. Ryan T Pruitt, DMD
Pruitt & Earp Dentistry is led by Dr. Ryan Pruitt. Dr. Pruitt is a North Carolina native and grew up in Pinnacle, NC where he was raised on a small farm. Here he learned the value of hard work and strong Christian family values. He was the first person in his family to go to college and received his education by attending Clemson University where he received his Bachelors of Science degree in Biochemistry. After undergrad, he attended the East Carolina School of Dental Medicine for graduate school.
He started off his dental career at Pruitt & Earp Dentistry in 2016. While at Pruitt & Earp Dentistry, he met his wife “Brittany Stone Pruitt” from Middlesex, NC. Dr. Pruitt and his wife have been blessed with three wonderful children: Solomon, Shiloh, and Shepard. They later migrated to Wilson, NC so that he and his wife could be close to his wife’s family to have help while raising their children.
Since dental school Dr. Pruitt has built upon his education by attending implant courses with Implant Direct, the Shakin Implant Institute, and Spear Education. He has had extensive hands-on experience with cosmetic dentistry, placing hundreds of implants, crowns, and full mouth rehabilitation. While in Rocky Mount, he gained lots of experience with complicated wisdom teeth extractions and oral surgery procedures with the late Dr. Jim Harrold. He is a certified Invisalign provider and provides our patients with clear braces. Dr. Pruitt is a current member of the American Dental Association and the North Carolina Dental Society. He remains current with continuing education programs so that he can provide all of his patients with the highest standards of care.
During his spare time, he enjoys spending time with his family, going to church, gardening, and being in the great outdoors.
