In-network Delta Dental care minutes from Lake Acworth
If you live in Yacht Club Estates and you need a Delta Dental dentist who actually files your claim and explains your benefits before treatment, this is the office to call. Dr. Alan Parnes, DDS is in-network with Delta Dental and serves Yacht Club Estates patients from a practice less than three miles away on GA-92.
From Yacht Club Estates, the route is short: head out to GA-92 and drive south past Lake Acworth. The office is at 6199 GA-92, Suite 132. Five minutes door to door under normal traffic. There is parking right at the suite, so you are not hunting for a spot before your appointment.
What it means that we are in-network with Delta Dental
Delta Dental in-network status is the most practical thing a Delta Dental member can ask about, so let's be specific:
- We are contracted directly with Delta Dental, which means our fees for covered services are set by Delta and your out-of-pocket cost is lower than at an out-of-network office.
- We file your Delta Dental claim. You do not pay up front and chase reimbursement. We bill Delta and collect only your portion.
- Before any treatment beyond a routine cleaning or exam, we send a pre-determination to Delta and give you a written cost estimate. You see the number before you commit.
We accept Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier plans.
Getting from Yacht Club Estates to the Office
The office is at 6199 GA-92, Suite 132, Acworth, GA 30102. From Yacht Club Estates, the route is short:
- Take your local subdivision streets out to GA-92 (also called Cherokee Street or Alabama Highway in this stretch).
- Head along GA-92 toward the practice. Most parts of the subdivision are within 2 to 4 miles of the office.
- Total drive time is typically 5 to 8 minutes off-peak, longer during the morning rush.
- Parking is on-site, surface-level, right at Suite 132. No garage and no street parking required.
First-time patients usually plan for an extra 10 minutes to fill out forms, though completing the new-patient forms online before you arrive cuts that down significantly.
Services Yacht Club Estates patients use most
Delta Dental plans typically split coverage into three tiers: preventive, basic, and major. Coverage percentages vary by plan, but the structure is consistent:
- Preventive (cleanings, exams, X-rays). Most Delta Dental PPO plans cover preventive at or near 100 percent, often with no deductible. We recommend a six-month schedule.
- Basic (fillings, simple extractions, root canals). Typically covered at a higher percentage on Delta plans. Tooth-colored fillings are standard in our office.
- Major (crowns, bridges, implants, dentures). Coverage varies more on these. We provide a written estimate before treatment so you know your share.
- Cosmetic (whitening, veneers, Invisalign). Most Delta plans do not cover cosmetic work, but some include orthodontic riders that apply to Invisalign. We check this for you when we verify benefits.
Your first visit if you live in Yacht Club Estates
Plan for about 60 to 75 minutes. Bring a photo ID and your Delta Dental insurance card. If you can complete the new patient forms online before you arrive, check-in takes less than five minutes.
Your first visit includes a full exam, digital X-rays as needed, and a one-on-one conversation with Dr. Parnes about anything you have noticed (sensitivity, pain, cosmetic concerns, missing or damaged teeth). If treatment is recommended, you leave with a written plan that includes the Delta Dental estimate.

Frequently asked questions from Delta Dental members
I have Delta Dental but I'm not sure which plan. Can you check?
Yes. Call (770) 928-4434 with your member ID. We verify your specific plan with Delta Dental directly and tell you what is covered, your remaining annual maximum, and any deductible status before your appointment.
What is the difference between Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier?
Delta Dental PPO is Delta's lower-cost network with negotiated fees. Delta Dental Premier is the older, broader network. Both pay benefits at our office, but PPO members usually have lower out-of-pocket costs because of contracted PPO fees. We are in-network for [VERIFY: PPO, Premier, or both].
Will my Delta Dental plan cover Invisalign?
Maybe. Some Delta plans include an orthodontic benefit that applies to Invisalign for adults or children, often with a lifetime maximum. Others exclude orthodontics entirely. We verify this for you before treatment so you know what is covered.
My annual maximum reset in January. Should I schedule now?
If you are due for a cleaning or have any planned treatment, yes. Annual maximums reset on a calendar year for most Delta Dental plans, and unused benefits do not roll over. If you have unfinished treatment from last year, scheduling early in the new year can stretch your benefits.
Do you take same-day emergency visits if I'm in Yacht Club Estates?
Yes. We hold same-day appointment slots for emergencies. Call (770) 928-4434 in the morning and we will fit you in that day if at all possible.
