If you’re looking for a dentist in East Cobb, you don’t have to go far for care you can count on. Elevation Dental and Aesthetics is on Kennesaw Avenue in Marietta, about 10 miles west of The Avenue East Cobb along Roswell Road, and most drives take about 30 minutes. Our practice has served Cobb County for more than 30 years, and Dr. Spencer Harden, Dr. Vo and Dr. Hull handle everything from routine cleanings to porcelain work and implant care in one office.
East Cobb isn’t a city, even though it’s one of the best known names in the county. It’s an unincorporated area with Marietta mailing addresses, and when a cityhood referendum went to voters in 2022, about 73 percent voted no. It stretches roughly from the Chattahoochee and Roswell to I-75 and the Cherokee County line, with Sweat Mountain as its high point. Schools like Walton, Pope, Wheeler, Lassiter and Kell, and shopping at Merchant’s Walk and Paper Mill Village, help define it.
Plenty of adults would like straighter teeth but don’t want metal brackets at work or in photos. Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners instead, and each set moves your teeth a little closer to where they should be. You switch to a new set on a schedule your dentist sets, with checkups along the way to track progress.
Because the trays come out, you take them off to eat, brush and floss, so there’s no list of foods to avoid the way there is with braces. Aligners work best for patients who wear them most of the day and keep their trays clean.
Crowded or crooked teeth are harder to keep clean. According to the American Dental Association’s guide to orthodontic treatment, leaving a bad bite uncorrected can lead to tooth decay, gum disease and abnormal wear on the teeth. Straightening them can make brushing and flossing easier and help protect other dental work.
At your consultation, we’ll look at your bite, take scans and tell you whether Invisalign is a good fit or whether another option would serve you better. If you’re also thinking about porcelain work, straightening first can mean fewer teeth need covering later.
If chips, stains, gaps or uneven edges make you hide your smile in photos, porcelain veneers may be the most direct fix. Each veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth, and together they can change color, shape, length and spacing in a single treatment plan. Porcelain reflects light much like natural enamel, which helps the result look like your own teeth.
Good dental veneers from any dentist in East Cobb or Marietta start with a conversation about what you want to change, followed by an exam to make sure your teeth and gums are healthy enough. We design each set around your face and the color of your surrounding teeth, keep preparation as conservative as possible and refine the fit on placement day. If you’d like a smaller change first, whitening or bonding may be enough, and we’ll tell you honestly if that’s the case.
Porcelain work usually takes two visits: one to prepare the teeth and take scans, and a second to bond the finished shells. If you plan to whiten your other teeth, do it first, since porcelain won’t change color once it’s placed and we’ll match the new shells to your brighter shade.
Dental implants replace a missing tooth from the root up. A small post bonds with the jawbone and supports a crown, a bridge or a full arch, so the new teeth stay put when you eat and help preserve the bone underneath. We offer dental implants for a single tooth, implant supported dentures, locator dentures and full arch treatment, with bone grafting when an area needs extra support.
Guided implant surgery lets us plan each post on detailed imaging before treatment. Dental implants involve several steps, so at your consultation we’ll lay out the timeline, the cost and what each visit involves.
Caring for an implant is a lot like caring for a natural tooth. Brush twice a day, clean around the post with floss or a water flosser, and keep up with regular cleanings, whether with us or another dentist in East Cobb, so the gums around each implant get checked. With good daily care, implants can last for many years.
