Dentists in Athens

“I can’t even explain the way I feel after coming here for the first time. From the beginning till the end everyone was amazing. If you have anxiety about dental offices this is a great place to come! Amy was wonderful and Dr.Edwards has such a warm personality. I’ve never had a dentist make me feel comfortable and she did effortlessly. This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had at a dental office! I’ve also never looked forward to going back to one and I can’t wait for my next appointment.“

“Dr. Morang is professional and friendly. I feel very confident with his skills as my dentist. Shout out to his hygienist, Michelle!“

“I was referred to the practice by an existing patient after having a long-standing but invariably stressful patient relationship in another local, multi-location practice. Everyone was so polite and friendly, from Lauren at reception to Dr. Allen - I could barely believe it. I had become accustomed to waiting in the lobby for as long as an hour beyond a scheduled appointment, and for practice staff to speak ill of patients, in front of other patients, as if they were invisible. I had such an overwhelmingly positive experience at Alex Johnson Dental! I regret not leaving my previous practice sooner.“

“Maryann and Sam are awesome! They provide excellent cleanings and both are very sweet!“

“i don’t even know where to begin, as someone with dental anxiety, this was the best experience i have ever had at a dentist. I felt so cared for, and bless the sweet lady that let me squeeze her hand because i know i was squeezing hard and she was just so sweet the whole time. I left with no pain & i still have no pain even though im pretty sure all the numbing medicine is gone by now. He explained everything he was doing & just made me feel so comfortable, constantly reassuring me i was doing good. If you need a good dentist, STOP HERE YOU FOUND HIM.

update: second time coming here and treated with the same passion and kindness as the first time. I won’t go anywhere else until this man retires, thank you all so much for your care.“

“I've moved across the country, but Dr. Elder's office is still my favorite dental practice. Dr. Matt is clearly skilled and knowledgeable, in addition to having a great rapport with his patients, and the hygienists and admin staff are uniformly excellent.“

“Warm, inviting, and professional dental practice. Dr. Hall is knowledgeable, gives excellent advices and options for you if there are any to be had. His staff are all super! Every single one of them! Dr. Hall is a skilled dental provider and he has seen me through thick and thin. I've never experienced any pain during or after procedures. I am able to relax and know that he truly will take the best possible care of me while in his chair. Our entire family feels like we met family when we met Dr. Hall and his team. We are so grateful to call them Our dental team.“

“I can’t say enough positive things about Dr. Pollack and his staff. I had a tooth broken in half and his staff handled my emergency like I was a VIP. Saw them one day, the next day I was in surgery to have it removed. This has been the least stressful experience of my life. I would recommend them to everyone! They have called and checked on me and made sure I knew what to do if I had any problems. This is the first time I can say I wouldn’t be anxious to see their group again, if ever needed. Absolutely perfect!“

“Five Stars for Athens Family Dental – The Future of Dentistry Is Here

I’ve never written a dental review before, but Athens Family Dental—and more specifically, Dr. Alex and her hygienist Emily—deserve one.

First, the technology. They’ve upgraded the entire experience. No more jaw-breaking contortions just to get an x-ray or cleaning. They use a small, handheld wand to scan teeth with incredible precision, and a new device (called something “Lite”) that gently holds your mouth open during procedures. It’s painless, comfortable, and light-years ahead of the usual approach. This is dentistry without the dread.

Dr. Alex (yes, she goes by her first name, and yes, she’s earned that level of cool) is sharp, compassionate, and deeply skilled. Hygienist Emily—red-haired, warm, and just as smart—is the kind of professional who puts you at ease the moment she starts talking. They’re a powerhouse team: personable, highly competent, and genuinely kind.

The office is spotless, beautifully run, and clearly built with patient comfort in mind.

I’m deeply impressed—and grateful to have found a place that blends heart, brains, and cutting-edge care. Highly recommend.
