Services
All-on-4 Dental Implants
Allon4 Dental Implants provide a full arch replacement using only four strategically placed implants. This minimally invasive option is ideal for patients with missing teeth or bone loss who want a durable, naturallooking solution. Our experienced periodontist customizes each implant to ensure optimal fit, function, and longterm comfort.
Donor Tissue Gum Grafting
Donor tissue gum grafting uses healthy gum tissue from a donor site to rebuild and thicken thin or receding gum lines. This procedure restores a balanced gum-to-tooth ratio, protecting underlying bone and improving aesthetic appearance. Our team ensures precise placement and healing, resulting in lasting gum health and confidence.
Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
Gingivectomy removes excess gum tissue to correct overgrowth, while gingivoplasty reshapes the gum margin for a smooth contour. These procedures are essential for maintaining healthy periodontal pockets and preventing future gum recession. Our meticulous technique guarantees minimal discomfort and rapid recovery, ensuring optimal oral function.
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry offers precise, minimally invasive treatment for gum disease, cavity removal, and cosmetic enhancements. The technology reduces bleeding, eliminates the need for anesthesia, and promotes faster healing compared to conventional methods. We employ stateoftheart lasers to deliver safe, efficient care tailored to each patients needs.

I was so scared at what would transpire but everyone made me feel comfortable and cared for. Dr Kirkland and her staff are amazing. I highly recommend this practice.

This review is only based on scheduling. After scheduled, I got a call one day before my appointment telling me they have to push me to next week. When next week comes, they called me one day before this week appointment and pushed me another week. They pushed my appointment twice within 24hr of the appointment time, yet they require a fee from you if you cancel within 48hrs.

A pleasant experience until the estimate for services arrived. I blame myself for being ignorant of semantics. Prior to booking an estimate for work, I asked if they take my insurance (Anthem), they said YES. I proceeded to take time out of my day and get the facts and numbers. In the end I was given a treatment plan over $14,500+. This gross price was to be expected, but because I did not ask are they "in-network" the cost is as-is (net) with no insurance contribution.

For inconveniencing their staff, I paid them $250. I apologize tremendously for the miscommunication. There seems to be a pattern of deceptive practices. And it seems most of your positive reviews are from people with limited postings. Did you ask them to post? Or are those fake/coerced to attract more clients? Honesty is the best policy, Doc. Pre-Response to Owner: Please don't patronize me with your awful response as below.

Call it what it is. You don't have to wish luck to disgruntled patients finding another Perio; fortunately there are several in ATL metro. Care before greed or do you NOT promote the Hippocratic Oath in your classes to young dental professionals? PS - Get well soon.

Dr. Kirkland spent a fair amount of time with me to introduce herself and review my health history. She answered all of my questions, asked a lot of questions, and pointed out the areas of concern to her and how she will handle my care going forward. Her team is very professional, from being greeted at the front desk, to taking a tour of the facility, to the pre-hygienist work, to the actual cleaning. The only negative would be that they require payment in full up front, then bill your insurance, so you have to wait for a reimbursement check from your insurance carrier.

Very impressive and welcoming office. A very friendly and informative staff and doctor who take the time to explain every aspect and detail of your issue and treatment. Everything about this office is exceptional including a very thoughtful giftbag handed to you when you get a tour of the whole office. Who does that? I would highly recommend this practice to anyone!

DO NOT go here. The staff is very manipulative, and they will try to commit you to a full procedure within minutes. You will be forced to pay the FULL PRICE up front, which was never communicated when making an appointment. Regardless if your insurance will fully cover your visit, they will force you to pay the total cost up front, which is well above the reasonable and customary price, and then submit a claim for you, leaving you to try and recoup any money back from them if necessary. This includes your first consultation, which is over $200.

I thank my lucky stars that Dr. Kirkland was referred to me by another dentist. I have no anxiety whatsoever when I have an appointment. I now have and have maintained a healthy mouth since I have been under her care. Also a great staff.
