“Excellent!!! Please celebrate with ALL who helped make this a homerun!”

The challenge of matching a single anterior restoration to surrounding natural teeth… Excellent photography and communication is key and we are definitely celebrating! 🙌 🎉

There’s no substitute for a like minded team driven to excellence. Dr. Davis and Dr. Wray embody this philosophy and we are grateful to be aligned with with these extraordinary ladies!

This week, we had a special in-person visit from Denise from our dental lab, ByDesign!

A great dental lab plays such an important role behind the scenes in patient care. They help bring many of our restorative cases to life — from crowns and bridges to other custom dental work that needs to look natural, feel comfortable, and function beautifully.

When we work closely with our lab, we’re able to communicate the little details that make a big difference: tooth shape, shade, fit, bite, and overall smile harmony. That collaboration helps us provide dentistry that is not only strong and precise, but also personal to each patient.

We’re so grateful for Denise and the ByDesign team for the care, craftsmanship, and partnership they bring to our patients’ smiles! 🦷✨

We always talk about our laboratory being built on relationships. Many of which have carried us through decades of dentistry together. We are grateful for such a blessing through Dr. and Mrs. Hughes. More than 30 years of friendship, trust and dentistry together and they still come to Atlanta to visit with our team.

We had one of the very best in our lab to lead us in a deep dive Miyo training day. Bart Cothran is an incredible technician and we learned so much! Can’t wait to share what we learned and apply it to our dentistry.
What a fun day!

A moment for this PFM beauty… we are asked most every week if we still make porcelain fused to metal restorations and the answer is YES! This one will complete a beautiful smile for a gentleman right here in Atlanta.

I recently went to CT and enjoyed spending time with some remarkable professionals in dentistry.
Please join me in congratulating Dr. Joe Owen on the establishment of his new practice! Joe, we can’t wait to walk with you as you make this place your own.
I also had the pleasure of sharing a wonderful dinner and toast with Dr. David Wohl and Dr. Robert Golia and their lovely wives, as we celebrated their retirement. Over the past 30+ years, we've worked together to create countless smiles. We are inspired by your passion for dentistry and commitment to your communities. It has been a pleasure!
