About Dunwoody Dental Smiles
Dunwoody Dental Smiles operates on Mount Vernon Road in the Dunwoody Village area of Dunwoody, Georgia. Implants are considered by many dentists the most durable way to replace a missing tooth, since the titanium post fuses with the jaw bone over several months and then supports a crown that functions much like a natural tooth. Enough healthy bone is the main prerequisite, and a graft can build that up first if needed.
A veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, length, or colour, most often used to address chips, gaps, or discoloration that whitening alone cannot fix. Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed, which makes the change permanent.
Cosmetic treatment is generally the least invasive branch of dentistry, built around changing how teeth look rather than fixing something broken. Whitening and bonding sit at the lighter end; veneers and reshaping involve more planning. Most cosmetic dental insurance excludes this kind of work, since it is elective rather than medically necessary.
A crown covers an entire damaged tooth — used when too much structure is missing for a filling to hold reliably, whether from a large fracture, extensive decay, or after root canal treatment. It restores both the shape and the biting strength of the tooth underneath.
A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth to crowns placed on the teeth either side of the gap, creating a fixed replacement rather than a removable one. It is a longstanding alternative to an implant, particularly when the neighbouring teeth already need crowns.
Dentures replace some or all of the natural teeth in a jaw with a removable appliance, custom-fitted to the mouth. A full denture replaces every tooth; a partial fills gaps where some natural teeth remain. Because the jaw bone reshapes over time, dentures typically need adjusting or remaking periodically.

Love my new dentist! Had to find a new one as my previous had changed in payment, drs, etc. after trying several around found Dunwoody dental smiles and love the practice and how they treat me and my teeth!!
They are timely with the appointment and very professional with the treatment.
Great experience friendly staff would not go anywhere else.
Great staff so friendly! And experience counts big time...
Been their patient for many years. The best in metro Atlanta for a whole range of services: cleanings, crown work, fillings, treatment plans. Dr. Hedlund and his staff (especially Cynthia!) are top-notch. I know going to the dentist fills some folks with fear and trepidation, but DDS will change your outlook on dentistry!
Very friendly and professional staff. Everyone was super friendly and nice! I had the smoothest cleaning experience ever! No pain or blood at all! Very gentle and considerate!
I love this practice—it feels like family. Everyone is incredibly kind and accommodating. I’ve never had to wait past my appointment time, it’s never overcrowded, and the entire team—from the doctor and assistants to the front desk staff—works so well together.
I recently moved to Georgia and was searching for a dentist when I came across Dunwoody Dental Smiles on Google. I’m really glad I chose this office. Kathy at the front desk was very warm, welcoming, and accommodating and made me feel comfortable right away. It truly felt like a home away from home. The hygienist was detail oriented and did a great job with the cleaning. Dr. Hedlund was excellent, highly knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend this office.
I’ve been coming here for over 5 years and the Dr. Hedlund is the best dentist I’ve ever had. All the work I’ve had done by him has been exceptional and durable; specially the more cosmetic repairs. The staff is wonderful and very accommodating. Best part: appointments always start on time. Never waited more than 3 minutes to get on the chair. In and out in record time. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great dentist that’s reliable and does amazing work while being gentle and caring.
