Why Cobb County Patients Choose Alan N. Parnes, DDS

More Than 40 Years Serving Cobb County

Dr. Alan N. Parnes graduated from the University of Georgia in 1978 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, then from Howard University College of Dentistry in 1982. He is a second-generation dentist and has practiced at the Acworth location for more than 40 years. Few dental practices in Cobb County have been operating from the same address that long. For patients comparing options, that continuity is one of the strongest trust signals available.

Family, Cosmetic, and Implant Dentistry Under One Roof

The practice handles three main categories of care from the same office: family and preventive dentistry (cleanings, exams, fillings, sealants), cosmetic dentistry (whitening, veneers, Invisalign®, bonding), and implant dentistry (single implants, multiple-tooth implants, All-on-4 implant-supported dentures). For households with mixed needs across family members, one office covers everyone.

Professional Affiliations

Dr. Parnes is a member of the American Dental Association, the Georgia Dental Association, the Northwest District Dental Association, and the Alpha Omega Dental Society. He continues to attend continuing education courses to keep treatments aligned with current standards.

Insurance, Membership, and Financing

Most major PPO dental insurance plans are accepted in-network. Patients without insurance have two paths: the Friends and Family Membership Plan, which covers preventive visits at a flat annual rate, and CareCredit financing, which spreads larger treatment over monthly payments. Call (770) 657-7120 with your insurance card available and the front office will verify your specific plan before you book.

Dental Services Available at Our Cobb County Office

Routine Cleanings and Exams

Twice-yearly cleanings and exams are the foundation of preventive care for adults and kids. New patients receive a full exam, digital X-rays, and a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Parnes at the first visit.

Tooth-Colored Fillings, Crowns, and Bridges

Tooth-colored fillings restore decayed teeth so the repair blends with the surrounding tooth. Crowns restore teeth too damaged for a filling. Bridges replace missing teeth by anchoring a replacement to neighboring teeth.

Root Canal Therapy

When a tooth's pulp is infected or damaged, a root canal removes the infected tissue and seals the tooth so it can stay in place rather than being extracted.

Dental Implants and Implant-Supported Dentures

Single-tooth implants, multiple-tooth implants, and All-on-4 implant-supported dentures replace missing teeth. The first step is a consultation with Dr. Parnes to evaluate jawbone density, oral health, and the right approach.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, cosmetic bonding, and Invisalign® clear aligners are all offered. Smile makeovers combine several of these into a single plan when the goal is a broader change.

Same-Day Dental Emergencies

A chipped tooth, a knocked-out tooth, a broken crown, or a sudden severe toothache all qualify as dental emergencies. Same-day appointments are available when called for in the morning during business hours. The office is closed evenings and weekends; severe pain outside business hours should be evaluated at urgent care or an emergency room until the office reopens.

About Cobb County

Cobb County sits just northwest of Atlanta and combines suburban comfort with metro-area access. Major cities include Marietta, Smyrna, Kennesaw, and Acworth. Well-kept neighborhoods, strong public services, and reputable schools make the area popular with families. Major corridors like I-75, I-285, and the East-West Connector make commuting straightforward, while local healthcare and higher education (including Kennesaw State University) keep day-to-day needs close.

Lifestyle perks are broad. Outdoor enthusiasts use Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park's trail network, the Silver Comet Trail, and dozens of community parks and sports facilities. Entertainment includes year-round Braves games at Truist Park, concerts at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, and the active downtown squares of Marietta, Kennesaw, and Acworth. A diverse job market and a steady calendar of community events make Cobb County one of the more livable counties in the metro area.

New Patient Specials

For patients without insurance, the practice offers a $125 new-patient exam with X-rays, or a $199 new-patient exam with X-rays and a healthy mouth cleaning (in the absence of periodontal disease). These cannot be combined with insurance and apply to new patients only.

Cobb County Patient Questions

Where in Cobb County is your office located, and what is the drive like?

The office is at 6199 GA-92, Suite 132, Acworth, GA 30102, on the northern side of the county. From central Acworth, the drive is 3 to 6 minutes. From downtown Kennesaw, plan for about 12 minutes via I-75 north and the Glade Road exit. From Marietta Square, about 22 minutes. Patients from East Cobb and South Cobb should expect longer drives during rush hour due to I-75 traffic.

Do you accept patients from anywhere in Cobb County?

Yes. The practice serves patients from across Cobb (Acworth, Kennesaw, Marietta, Smyrna, Powder Springs, East Cobb, and elsewhere) and from neighboring Cherokee and Bartow counties. New patients are welcome. The drive may take longer from the southern half of the county, so most patients from those areas schedule fewer, longer visits rather than splitting routine work across multiple short trips.

What forms of payment and financing does the office accept?

The office accepts most major PPO dental insurance plans in-network, plus major credit cards and cash. For patients without insurance, the Friends and Family Membership Plan covers preventive visits at a flat annual rate. Third-party financing through CareCredit and monthly payment plans are available for larger work. The front office can quote out-of-pocket costs before any treatment is scheduled.

How does the Friends and Family Membership Plan work?

The membership plan is for patients without dental insurance. It covers preventive visits (exams, cleanings, X-rays) at a flat annual fee and provides discounted rates on other treatment when needed. It is not insurance; it is a direct arrangement with the practice. Call (770) 657-7120 for current pricing and what is included for the year you are joining.

What is the difference between cosmetic bonding and porcelain veneers?

Cosmetic bonding uses tooth-colored composite resin applied directly to the tooth and shaped to correct small chips, gaps, or discolorations. It is done in one visit, costs less, and typically lasts 5 to 10 years before needing touch-up or replacement. Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain bonded to the front of teeth. They take two or three visits to complete (impressions, lab fabrication, placement), cost more up front, and typically last 10 to 20 years with proper care. The right choice depends on the size of the change and how durable the result needs to be.
