- Dental ExaminationWhen you come to see us for the first time, we’ll treat you like you’ve been with us for years. You’ll be greeted with a smile, we’ll help organize your paperwork, and then we’ll give you a short tour of the office. After that, you’ll be taken to the back where you’ll get to meet your dentist. After a short chat, they’ll take some x-rays and perform a cleaning and comprehensive oral exam. From there, they’ll formulate your personalized treatment plan to meet all of your long term dental needs.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningOral cancer rates are currently on the rise here in the U.S., and this is why the American Cancer Society recommends that patients of all ages should have at least one screening every year. Rather than scheduling a separate doctor’s appointment, we can perform one as part of your regular checkup. Your doctor will examine your lips, gums, cheeks, tongue, neck, and throat for any signs of the disease, and they can advise you on what to do next should they find anything that causes concern.
- Teeth CleaningRegular professional checkups and teeth cleanings are necessary if you want to ensure the health and longevity of your smile. Brushing, flossing, and rinsing at home are important and effective at reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease but as plaque and tartar form on your teeth, it can be impossible to try and get rid of. That is unless you see Dr. Gashparova every six months for a dental checkup. By reviewing your oral cavity and looking for signs of decay, gum disease, and oral cancer, we can make sure your smile looks and feels its best.
- Fluoride TreatmentFluoride treatments are another aspect of providing family dentistry to the Cumming area. Most of the bottled drinking water used in so many homes these days lacks fluoride, which is vital to good oral health. For this reason, Cumming family dentists Dr. Brian and Dr. Katherine offer fluoride treatments commonly to children as well as adults. Fluoride is a vital mineral that attracts other minerals to strengthen tooth enamel and help fight against decay. Prevention is the key to a healthy smile, and our approach to children’s dentistry and family dentistry emphasizes avoiding dental complications before they occur.
- Dental SealantsChildren tend to be more susceptible to developing decay in hard-to-brush areas, but we can protect these problem teeth using dental sealants. These coatings are made from tough plastic, and they’re applied to the chewing surfaces of certain teeth in an easy and comfortable way. Better yet, they can last for multiple years and are always able to be reapplied easily if they’re lost for whatever reason.
- FillingsMetal free Composite (tooth colored) fillings allow us to match the color of your natural teeth. Tooth colored fillings allow Dr. Brian and Dr. Katherine to restore your teeth to a healthy condition using the preferred alternative to traditional silver - amalgam fillings.
- Resin CompositeThese days, dental fillings are tooth-colored, made of a composite resin that bonds beautifully with healthy tooth structure. The composite resin is an amazing combination of acrylic and porcelain, colored to match the tooth enamel perfectly. Biocompatible and mercury-free, these tooth-colored fillings take care of new decay or can replace old fillings already in the mouth. Either way, this restorative procedure is also a great cosmetic treatment.
- VeneersPorcelain veneers can be a quick solution for teeth that are discolored, misaligned, chipped, or misshapen. Veneers even and brighten your teeth, yielding dramatic results; and in just two visits, we can take your smile from dull to dazzling! Veneers are thin, translucent porcelain sheaths layered and bonded to the front of teeth to create a smooth, brilliant smile.
- CrownsOver the years, teeth can fracture or decay for various reasons. They might get damaged from an accident, or they erode from poor oral hygiene. Whatever the cause, though, dental crowns can often fix this issue! They work well, too, since they prevent further health problems and lower your risk of more invasive treatment.

- Root Canal TreatmentRoot canal therapy is a dental procedure with a long history. Previously thought of as a last-ditch, agonizing and lengthy procedure, modern “root canals” treat injured, decayed and infected teeth, restoring them to full function for years to come. Also used prophylactically for teeth that are not sick but have had numerous procedures, root canal therapy is a comfortable treatment that takes about an hour with one follow-up appointment.
- Deep CleaningThese treatments are collectively known as a “deep cleaning,” and they are typically our first line of defense against early-stage gum disease. With scaling, small tools called a scalers will be used to break up and clear away plaque and tartar deposits located on and underneath your gum line. Then, root planing will be used to gently smooth out the rough surfaces of your teeth’s roots, making it more difficult for plaque to gather on them in the future, which will lessen your chances of developing gum disease again.
- DenturesIt is normal to experience some discomfort and speech problems while getting used to your new dentures. New dentures need several adjustments to fit comfortably. To help with speech, read aloud for a few minutes every day. Your mouth will adjust, and your speech will improve.

- Gum SurgeryPain, swelling, and bleeding is normal following gum surgery.

- Tooth ExtractionsThe reasons you might need to have a tooth extracted include breakage, decay, severe infection, crowding, and gum disease. Many of these conditions are preventable, which is why it's so important to receive regular dental checkups from your dentist. However, if necessary, we can perform tooth extractions in our Cumming dental office.
- Bone GraftingDuring your search for smile restoration, you’ve probably wondered about whether or not dental implants are right for you. The best way to know with certainty is to visit our office for a consultation. Dr. Brian Lee and Dr. Katherine Lee will carefully examine your smile, the condition of your oral health, the number of teeth you’re missing, and the strength of your jawbone. After, they will be able to make a proper recommendation with a personalized treatment plan. Typically, patients will be missing at least one tooth, have a healthy jawbone, and are committed to positive oral health. However, treatments like bone grafting and/or periodontal disease can often help more patients become candidates, which is why a consultation is so important.
