Gilman Peterson, DMD, MD

Oral surgeons occupy a quiet corner of healthcare—one where precision meets urgency. Gilman Peterson, DMD, MD operates from 620 Perimeter Dr # 100 in Lexington, a low-slung office park where the hum of traffic fades behind glass doors. The practice handles everything from routine extractions to complex jaw reconstruction, a span of services that bridges general dentistry and hospital-level care. Patients often arrive with referrals, though new faces are common too; the phone at (859) 268-4423 rings for appointments, follow-ups, and the occasional weekend emergency.

Lexington’s south side has long been a patchwork of clinics and light industry, and this stretch of Perimeter Drive fits neatly into that rhythm. Dental surgery rarely feels routine, but the address is easy to remember—just off Man o’ War Boulevard, near the interstate. Directions are straightforward: pull up the map for real-time traffic or a quick glance at landmarks. No frills, just the essentials: a name, a number, and a door that opens five days a week.
