Looking for a dentist in Austell? Families here have a straightforward route to our office: up Barrett Parkway, about 15 miles from Austell City Hall. Elevation Dental and Aesthetics sits on Kennesaw Avenue in Marietta, and our practice has served Cobb County for more than 30 years. Dr. Spencer Harden, Dr. Vo and Dr. Hull see patients for checkups, implants, Invisalign and cosmetic care, all under one roof.
Austell began as a railroad town where the lines toward Birmingham and Chattanooga split, and it was named for General Alfred Austell, who helped bring railroads to the South. It was incorporated in 1885. Sweetwater Creek still runs through town, and the city’s Legion Park at Sweetwater Creek has a walking trail along the water. We also welcome patients from Mableton and the rest of South Cobb who are looking for a dentist in Austell or nearby.
Plenty of adults put off finding a dentist in Austell because sitting in the dental chair makes them tense, and the longer care waits, the bigger the eventual treatment tends to be. Our sedation dentistry options can help. Nitrous oxide takes the edge off and wears off quickly, while oral sedation, taken as a pill before your visit, helps with moderate anxiety.
Your dentist will review your health history and medications first and recommend the lightest option that keeps you comfortable. If you choose oral sedation, plan for someone to drive you home afterward, since the medication can leave you drowsy for a few hours.
When a tooth is lost, the bone that held it begins to shrink, and nearby teeth can lean into the space. Dental implants stop that cycle by replacing the root with a post that bonds to the jaw. That post can support a single crown, a bridge or a full arch of teeth. Our options for dental implants include single tooth implants, implant supported dentures, locator dentures and full arch treatment.
Good outcomes depend on good planning. Guided implant surgery uses detailed imaging to place each post precisely, and bone grafting can rebuild an area that has thinned. Dental implants are a bigger commitment than a removable partial, so we’ll walk through the steps, the timeline and the cost before you decide.
Plenty of adults would love straighter teeth but rule out braces because of the metal. Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners instead. Each set is shaped a little differently from the last, and you move to a new set roughly every week or two as your teeth shift into place.
Because the trays come out, you remove them to eat, brush and floss, so there’s no list of foods to avoid. The catch is that aligners only work when you wear them, generally around 20 to 22 hours a day. Your treatment plan is mapped out before you start, so you’ll have a clear idea of how your smile will change along the way.
Not every smile goal needs orthodontics. A cosmetic dentist can brighten teeth with professional whitening, repair chips and small gaps with bonding, or reshape the front teeth with porcelain veneers. Many patients work with a cosmetic dentist on several treatments, for example straightening first, then whitening, then adding a veneer or two where needed.
Every cosmetic plan starts with healthy teeth and gums. Your cosmetic dentist will check for decay or gum problems first, then talk through the look you want, how long each option usually lasts and what it costs.
The Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority lists Austell among the cities that depend on it exclusively for water. The Authority is required by Georgia law to add fluoride and keeps levels between 0.65 and 0.75 parts per million, according to its fluoridation page. That means tap water quietly helps protect enamel every day.
Checkups and cleanings do the rest. Our family dentistry team sees patients of all ages and uses sealants and fluoride treatments as needed for kids. If you don’t have dental insurance, our savings plan is open to anyone, so seeing a dentist in Austell or Marietta doesn’t have to mean paying full price, and nervous patients can ask about sedation, from nitrous oxide to oral sedation.
Cavities get most of the attention, but gum disease is just as important to catch early. Early warning signs include gums that bleed when you brush or floss, persistent bad breath, gums that look red or swollen, and teeth that seem longer because the gums have pulled back. Left alone, gum disease can loosen teeth and eventually lead to tooth loss. That’s why regular visits with a dentist in Austell or Marietta matter.
The good news is that early gum problems usually respond well to better home care and professional cleanings. At every checkup, we look for these early signs and let you know if anything needs closer attention. Our gum health services include deep cleanings, known as scaling and root planing, plus personalized maintenance plans, and healthy gums are also the foundation for implants, veneers and any other major treatment.
