Dr. Alex Mehraban uses advanced digital diagnostics and precise treatment planning to help patients replace one, several, or all missing teeth with dental implants. Whether you need a single implant or a more comprehensive full-mouth restoration, our goal is to create results that restore both comfort and confidence.
Dental implants are one of the most reliable and long-lasting tooth replacement options available today because they integrate directly with the jawbone, helping preserve bone structure and support long-term oral health.

Periodontal health plays a critical role in maintaining a healthy smile and overall wellness. At Shining Smiles in Marietta, Dr. Alex Mehraban provides advanced gum disease treatment treatment designed to help patients restore comfort, function, and confidence. Many patients experience symptoms such as bleeding gums, gum recession, sensitivity, swelling, loose teeth, or discomfort without realizing these may be signs of underlying periodontal issues. Early diagnosis and personalized treatment can help prevent more serious complications and protect your long-term oral health.
Our office focuses on delivering patient-centered care using modern technology and minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. We understand that periodontal concerns can feel overwhelming, especially for patients who may have delayed treatment due to anxiety or fear. That is why our team works hard to create a welcoming and judgment-free environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and learning about their treatment options.
Every patient receives a comprehensive evaluation before treatment begins. Dr. Mehraban carefully examines the health of the gums, bone structure, teeth, and surrounding tissues in order to develop a customized treatment plan. No two smiles are the same, which means treatment should never follow a one-size-fits-all approach. We believe in educating patients about their oral health and helping them make informed decisions with confidence.
One of the most important goals of gum disease treatment treatment is preventing future damage. Periodontal problems can progress over time if left untreated, often leading to bone loss, tooth mobility, infection, and eventually tooth loss. Beyond oral health, studies continue to show a strong relationship between periodontal disease and systemic health conditions such as diabetes and heart disease. Taking care of your gums is an investment in your overall health and well-being.
At Shining Smiles, we combine experience, advanced diagnostics, and compassionate care to create a positive treatment experience. Patients appreciate our attention to detail, personalized recommendations, and commitment to long-term results. We also offer comfort-focused treatment options and sedation solutions for patients who feel nervous about dental procedures.
Whether you are visiting our office for preventive care or more advanced periodontal treatment, our goal is to help you achieve healthier gums and a stronger smile. We believe every patient deserves care that is honest, thorough, and focused on lasting success. Our team is dedicated to helping patients feel supported throughout every stage of treatment and recovery.
If you have noticed symptoms such as bleeding gums, gum recession, loose teeth, persistent bad breath, or sensitivity, it may be time to schedule an evaluation. Early intervention can often prevent more extensive treatment later and help preserve your natural teeth for years to come.

Healthy gums are essential to maintaining overall wellness. Research has shown a strong connection between periodontal disease and health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, inflammation, and other systemic concerns. Treating gum disease is not only important for preserving your teeth, but also for supporting your long-term health.
Our mission is to provide comprehensive periodontal care that helps patients improve both their oral health and quality of life. Whether you need preventive treatment, advanced gum therapy, or dental implants, our team is committed to delivering personalized care with precision and compassion.
We believe great care should be accessible. Our team will verify your benefits, maximize your coverage, and help you choose a financing option that works.
We work with most major PPO dental insurance plans and will file claims on your behalf so you can focus on your treatment, not the paperwork.
Affordable monthly payment plans through trusted partners — including 0% APR options for qualified patients — so you can start treatment when it's right for you.
You'll receive a clear, written estimate before treatment begins — no surprises, no pressure. Ask any question; we'll answer it plainly.
Quick answers to the questions we hear most often. Don't see yours? Just give us a call — we're happy to help.
A periodontist is a dental specialist who has completed three additional years of training beyond dental school in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, and in the placement of dental implants. Your general dentist focuses on overall oral health; we focus specifically on the supporting structures of your teeth.
Common signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, gums that pull away from your teeth, persistent bad breath, loose teeth, or changes in your bite. Gum disease is often painless in early stages, which is why a periodontal evaluation is so important if anything feels different.
Most periodontal treatments are very well tolerated. We use local anesthesia, gentle techniques, and offer sedation options for patients who feel anxious. Many patients tell us the procedure was easier than they expected.
With proper care and routine maintenance, dental implants can last decades — often a lifetime. The key is healthy gums and bone around the implant, which is exactly the area we specialize in.
Many dental insurance plans cover periodontal therapy, and some cover a portion of implant treatment. Our team will verify your benefits in advance, walk you through your estimated coverage, and present financing options if needed.
No. Many of our patients are referred by their general dentist, but you are welcome to schedule a consultation directly with us at any time.
Your first visit usually includes a friendly welcome, a review of your medical and dental history, a comprehensive periodontal exam with 3D imaging if needed, and a discussion of findings and recommended next steps. You will never be pressured into treatment.
Brush twice a day with a soft-bristled brush, clean between your teeth daily, avoid tobacco, eat a balanced diet, and keep your professional cleanings on schedule. We will also coach you on techniques tailored to your mouth.
