Dr. Michael J. McDevitt graduated with honors from Emory University School of Dentistry in 1971. He later served in the United States Air Force, where he received advanced training in periodontics. This experience confirmed his desire to help patients keep their teeth with a healthy periodontium, so he completed his formal residency in periodontics at Emory in 1975. Shortly after earning a certificate in Periodontics, Dr. McDevitt opened Periodontal Associates of Georgia in Buckhead. In 2005, when Dr. Jacquot joined they expanded the practice by adding the Peachtree City office location.

Dr. McDevitt is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology. Dr. McDevitt continues to pursue the latest and most effective diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities for his patients through numerous continuing education experiences every year. The value of that ongoing education has become especially relevant in light of recent, dramatic revelations in the field of periodontics. New concepts of disease processes, the role of a person's genetics, and new strategies to afford each patient more opportunity to be engaged in their own treatment and solutions have evolved.

Over the last 25 of his over 40 years of clinical practice treating periodontal compromises, Dr. McDevitt has become a sought after teacher. He has been invited to speak at a number of state, regional and national dental meetings. He visits the Dental College of Georgia in Augusta once a month to share his knowledge and experience with residents specializing in Periodontics. Furthermore, he has taught graduate dentists several times a year as a member of the visiting faculty at the L. D. Pankey Institute, and recently has begun teaching in workshops for dental teams for Spear Education. His focus is on the compassionate, gentle, and precise diagnosis that every patient can understand, leading to each individual patient finding they are able to make healthy decisions, consistent with what is in their own best interest.

Mike has been blessed by his 50 year marriage to his precious wife, Marty, by his children, their spouses, and his four grandsons.

Dental implants can be a great way to replace a missing tooth or teeth! 🦷

An Implant that replaces a single front tooth is one of the most challenging procedures we do as periodontists because of the esthetic nature of the area. For a great esthetic outcome, the tooth and the gum surrounding the tooth are equally important.

For this reason, these cases may involve a team of dental specialists that may include your restorative dentist along with a periodontist and orthodontist. Every case is unique and different based on your needs and goals.

Dr. Jacquot enjoys the continued learning and application of the ever-changing field of periodontics.
