Woodwind Station sits in the Towne Lake area of Woodstock, in ZIP 30189. If you live here, you know the rhythm: the I-575 commute home, errands along Towne Lake Parkway, weekends at Lake Allatoona or in downtown Woodstock. Cosmetic dentistry has a way of sliding to the bottom of the list when life is that busy. Dr. Alan N. Parnes, DDS makes it easier to fit in. The office is at 6199 GA-92, Suite 132 in Acworth, a short drive across the Towne Lake corridor from Woodwind Station, with late-afternoon appointments through 5:00 PM so you can book the last meeting of the workday rather than break a morning.
This page is for Woodwind Station residents looking for veneers, whitening, Invisalign, cosmetic bonding, or a full smile makeover from a single-doctor practice with more than 40 years in the area.
Veneers, Whitening, and Invisalign for Towne Lake Patients
Most cosmetic dentistry questions from Woodwind Station patients fall into a few familiar groups. There is the working professional whose front teeth have shifted in the years since their braces came off. There is the parent in a family photo who avoids smiling because of one front tooth that has darkened. There is the teen who finished orthodontics two years ago and wants whitening before senior pictures. There is the homeowner who chipped a tooth on a sandwich and now sees the chip every time they look in the mirror. We see all of these every week.
What we do not do is push patients toward bigger treatment than they need. Sometimes the right answer is whitening and a single bonding appointment, not a full set of veneers. We will tell you when that is the case.
How to Get Here from Woodwind Station
There are two practical routes from Woodwind Station to our Acworth office, depending on traffic and which entrance to the neighborhood you start from.
Route 1, surface roads. Take Towne Lake Parkway west to Bells Ferry Road, then continue west onto GA-92. Follow GA-92 south to 6199 GA-92, Suite 132, on your right after the major commercial corridor. The trip is typically 15 to 20 minutes outside of rush hour.
Route 2, interstate. Take I-575 South to the Glade Road exit, then west on Glade Road until it meets GA-92. Continue south on GA-92 to the office. The trip is typically 18 to 22 minutes depending on I-575 traffic. This route is more reliable in the morning and the late afternoon when surface roads back up.
Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The last appointment of the day starts at 4:00 PM or 4:30 PM. Free parking is available in front of the office. The entrance is fully accessible at ground level.
Why Patients Drive from Woodwind Station to Acworth
Honest version: there are dentists closer to Woodwind Station than we are. The patients who choose us typically do so for specific reasons rather than pure convenience.
- Single-doctor private practice, not a corporate group. The same person who plans your cosmetic case is the same person who places the work and follows up afterward. There is no rotation through different dentists between visits.
- 40+ years of cosmetic dentistry experience. Parnes has been doing this work in Cobb County since the early 1980s. The cases that look easy on paper but go wrong in execution are the cases experience matters for.
- Late-afternoon appointments built around the I-575 commute. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The last appointment of the day starts at 4:00 PM or 4:30 PM. You can finish work, drive home off I-575, and still make a 4:30 PM consultation.
- In-network with most major PPO plans.
- Friends and Family Membership Plan for patients without insurance, plus CareCredit financing for cosmetic cases.
Insurance, Financing, and the Friends and Family Membership Plan
We work with most major dental PPO plans and will verify your specific benefits before your appointment. If you are paying out-of-pocket, the Friends and Family Membership Plan is a flat annual fee that covers preventive care and discounts cosmetic work, designed for households without dental insurance. CareCredit financing is available for cosmetic cases that you would rather spread over monthly payments.
Cosmetic dentistry is rarely covered by dental insurance, regardless of the practice. We will tell you exactly what is covered and what is not at the consultation, before any treatment plan is written.
About Woodwind Station and the Woodstock Towne Lake Area
Woodwind Station is a residential subdivision in the Towne Lake area of Woodstock, inside ZIP 30189. The Towne Lake corridor runs from Towne Lake Parkway through the major shopping anchors at Towne Lake Hills, with quick access east to downtown Woodstock and west to Lake Allatoona. Many neighborhood residents commute south to Atlanta on I-575, so morning and afternoon traffic patterns are part of weekly life.
Downtown Woodstock, with the Elm Street Cultural Arts Village and the Saturday farmers market, is roughly 10 minutes east. The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta is on the western side of Woodstock toward Acworth. Lake Allatoona is minutes away by car. For cosmetic dentistry, the Towne Lake area is busy enough that scheduling matters more than walk-in availability, which is why we book consultations in advance and keep late-afternoon slots open for working patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the actual drive from Woodwind Station to your office?
Roughly 15 to 20 minutes by surface streets via Bells Ferry Road and GA-92, or 18 to 22 minutes via I-575 South to Glade Road. The exact time depends on which entrance to the neighborhood you start from and the time of day.
I commute on I-575 every day. What is the latest appointment I can get?
We book through 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. Most working patients on the I-575 corridor schedule the last appointment of the day (4:00 PM or 4:30 PM) so they can drive straight from work without breaking up their morning. Cosmetic consultations typically take 30 to 45 minutes from check-in to check-out.
My family lives in Woodwind Station. Are you only a cosmetic practice, or can my kids come here too?
Dr. Parnes is a general dentist with a focus on cosmetic and family work. We see all ages and have many multi-generational families on the books.
What insurance plans do you accept for Woodstock-area patients?
We are in-network with most major PPO plans. If we are out-of-network with your plan, we can still file claims on your behalf and the difference is usually smaller than people expect. We verify your benefits before your appointment so there are no surprises at checkout.
I have not been to a dentist in years. Is that going to make a cosmetic consultation awkward?
No. Many patients we see for cosmetic work have not been to a dentist in five or ten years. We start with a basic exam and any necessary cleaning before we get into cosmetic planning, because veneers and whitening only work well on a healthy mouth. There is no judgment in that first visit. The goal is to get you to a place where cosmetic work will hold up.
Book Your Woodwind Station Consultation
Cosmetic dentistry works best when the conversation starts with what actually bothers you about your smile, not with a price list. At your consultation, Dr. Parnes will examine your teeth, listen to what you are looking for, and walk through realistic options, costs, and timelines. You leave with the information you need to decide. There is no obligation to commit to treatment.
