A smile is such a simple gesture, yet it holds so much power. It is innately human - a universal way to convey happiness, greet one another and signal that we're nice people. Smiles communicate how we're feeling and are great for breaking the ice or awkward moments. A good-natured smile moves mountains, but if you're like the average person, it may not be perfect. And that's okay. But is it healthy?
Studies from the CDC show that 1 in 4 U.S. adults from 20 to 64 have cavities. Perhaps even more surprising is that approximately 34 million school hours are lost every year due to emergency dental care. For children, missing time could mean the difference between moving forward and being held back.
If you're one of the many people who feel ashamed about their teeth, need preventative oral care, or suffer serious issues like tooth decay, it's time to protect your teeth and gums. Luckily, Merchants Walk Dental is here to serve you with the highest quality dental work in East Cobb, from preventative care to cosmetic dentistry.
At Merchants Walk Dental, your healthy teeth and gums are our passion. Our dentists and hygienists are committed to providing you with the best dental care possible in a comfortable, stress-free setting. Since opening in 2017, we have become the premier dentist in Johns Creek, GA, offering many dental services such as:
As experts, we know how important oral hygiene is for your health. We feel that it's important to go the extra mile to speak with our patients about the best practices involved with brushing, flossing, and healthy gums. We know what an impact a beautiful smile can make, which is why we are so dedicated to providing our patients with cleaner, straighter teeth than ever before.
Having served Georgia and East Cobb for years, we understand that no two patients will ever have the same needs. That's why we provide personalized services like cleanings and root canals tailored to each patient's unique needs. We also know that money doesn't grow on trees, so we accept most major dental insurance plans to ensure you can keep your teeth clean and healthy all year long.
If you're searching for an expert team of friendly dentists and hygienists, look no further than Merchants Walk Dental. We pride ourselves on the best dental care coupled with warm, engaging customer service. You can rest easy knowing you're in capable, welcoming hands whether it's your first or fortieth visit to our office.
Here at Merchants Walk Dental, we understand that getting your teeth cleaned isn't something everyone looks forward to. However, getting regular teeth cleanings performed by a trustworthy dentist is the best way to maintain a healthy smile and avoid serious oral hygiene issues. And while it's easy to avoid the dentist, doing so for too long can be bad for your overall health.
Studies have linked poor oral hygiene to serious problems like cancer, cardiovascular disease, bone loss, and strokes. If you're flossing and brushing at home twice a day, that's great. Doing so is the best way to get a leg up on critical oral hygiene problems. However, getting your teeth cleaned by a dental hygienist helps ensure your teeth are thoroughly cleaned, healthy, and protected.
It's a question we get all the time - what is periodontal treatment? This treatment focuses on your gums and preventing the common diseases that attack them. When left unchecked, plaque accumulates and hardens, forming hard-to-remove tartar. This tartar irritates your gums and will eventually lead to a litany of problems like tooth decay, tooth loss, and more.
During your teeth cleaning session at Merchants Walk Dental, we'll examine your gums closely to ensure they're healthy and functional.
Each of our teeth cleaning appointments has comprehensive check-ups, including:
The only surefire way to prevent tartar buildup and, by proxy, gum disease is by brushing and flossing diligently at home. If you have been slacking on regular brushing and have not visited a dentist recently, your gums could be suffering. If you have any of the following signs of gum disease, contact Merchants Walk Dental to schedule a dental exam in Johns Creek, GA:
If you have had a cavity filled before, you're not alone. Tooth decay affects more than 90% of adults over the age of 40 - a stunning statistic that, in many cases, is entirely preventable. At Merchants Walk Dental, we use composite resin fillings to keep our patient's teeth healthy and functional. Unlike amalgam fillings, composite fillings are more discreet, match the color of your teeth, and are free of mercury.
While fillings can have a few uses, our doctors typically use fillings to “fill†a part of your tooth that is decaying. This hole of decay is called a cavity. Sometimes, fillings are also used to fix broken, cracked, or worn-down teeth from grinding and nail-biting. Fillings are a great way to restore decaying teeth to their normal shape and function while preventing sensitivity and inhibiting further decay.
During your dental exam at our office in East Cobb, your dental hygienist will check for signs of cavities and tooth decay to ensure your oral hygiene remains in peak condition.
Abscesses- Without professional dental treatment, infected teeth lead to dental abscesses, which can be fatal if left untreated.
Nerve Pain- When your tooth is cracked and left without treatment, it can make its way to your nerve, resulting in extreme pain and damage.
Substantial Decay- If you leave an infection to fester without having a root canal, the infection can spread to other teeth in your mouth. If you don't address the initial signs of decay, you'll have to undergo treatment for multiple teeth.
Tooth Loss- Extensive decay and trauma often cause damage to your tooth's pulp. Our root canal treatments in Johns Creek remove this infected pulp. However, if you choose to ignore the problem, the infected pulp will rot your entire tooth, causing you to lose it forever.
One mention of the word root canal can send shivers up the spine for many people. Root canals get a bad rap, but the treatment has come a long way over the last decade.
When tooth decay and infection are left to fester, it can wreak havoc on your oral hygiene. Often, root canals in cityname, GA, are the best choice for patients with extensively diseased teeth. The goal of a root canal is to save and repair teeth by removing the infection from the pulp and nerve of the tooth.
Signs of tooth decay that may require a root canal include:
When a substantial cavity threatens a person's tooth and fillings aren't working, many dentists will use crowns to fix the problem. A crown is an aesthetic cap or a tooth-shaped covering placed over another tooth or implant for stability. Typically, crowns improve appearance and strength of a patient's teeth.
Crowns are also used to restore the size and shape of damaged or chipped teeth. When used for this purpose, dental crowns are usually bonded to the tooth using dental-grade cement.
During your dental exam and cleaning, your hygienist will keep a sharp eye out for signs of tooth decay, which may require a crown. Benefits of dental crows from Merchants Walk Dental include:
Restorative dental treatments can be complicated, but dental crowns are straightforward and minimally invasive. During the process, your tooth's enamel is cleaned, and your damaged tissue is removed. Once that process is complete, we'll cast a custom crown for your tooth. While the crown is created, Dr. John Bishara or Dr. Milli Patel will provide you with a temporary crown for normal functionality.
Damaged enamel or structural damage can cause pain and sensitivity. Having a dental crown installed will help alleviate a good amount of your pain.
Our dental crowns are made with high-quality, long-lasting materials. With proper care and regular check-ups, they can withstand years of chewing, biting, and grinding.
When you lose one or more teeth, whether due to decay or another factor, it's important to fill the space where the tooth is missing. That's where dental bridges come in. Bridges are essentially fake permanent teeth used to fill holes caused by missing teeth. The false tooth is fused between two dental crowns giving it the bridge concept. Dental bridges are then typically anchored to healthy teeth using resin and cement.
The health of your teeth, their position, and the state of the surrounding bone will help our team determine if bridges are right for you. If not, dentures in Johns Creek, GA, might be a better option. Dentures come in two forms: partial and complete. Dentures are best for patients who have missing teeth but aren't able to use bridges. Complete dentures all your missing teeth, while partial dentures replace one or two teeth.
Getting cosmetic dentures can be a life-changing experience. It often requires physical and emotional preparation. At Merchants Walk Dental, our team will take as much time needed to consult with and prepare you for your denture procedure.
Whether you need dental bridges or cosmetic dentures, we're here to help make your experience as seamless and stress-free as possible.
Dental implants are needed when you have missing teeth, but you cannot or will not get crowns, bridges, or dentures. Failing to replace a lost tooth will cause a bevy of problems as time goes on. For many patients, dental implants are the best option for replacing missing teeth. With dental implants, you can replace a single tooth or multiple teeth. A dental implant serves as a permanent artificial root anchored into the jawbone.
When our team puts a dental implant in place, your jawbone grafts itself to the titanium post making it as strong as your original root and tooth. The result is a natural, beautiful, fully-functional set of teeth that lasts for years.
Establishing healthy dental habits early in life is key for long-term oral health and confidence. The best way to learn those habits is at home and in a dentist's office.
At Merchants Walk Dental, our goal is to foster long-lasting relationship with the families in our community who trust us to care for their children's dental health.
When you choose Merchants Walk Dental as your child's dentist, you can rest easy knowing we treat your loved one just like ours. Our professional hygienists and experienced doctors are trained and certified to give your kids a comfortable dental experience. We like to mix fun with education, putting your child at ease while helping them understand the importance of proper dental care.
Common habits like teeth grinding and thumb sucking can have profound effects later in life. Our doctors are keenly aware of these habits, and work hard to help you and your child develop creative solutions to halt that behavior.
Our pediatric dental services improve the health of your child's teeth and gums with:

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Over the past year, Johns Creek officials gave the city’s recreation and parks system a major facelift and strengthened its standing as a Green Community through a number of eco-friendly initiatives.
In July, Johns Creek effectively doubled its park space with the grand opening of Cauley Creek Park, a 203-acre space on Bell Road.
The near-$26-million project includes a 5K rubberized trail and more than 10 lighted sports sites for basketball, futsal, pickleball and sand volleyball. There are also two synthetic and two turf lighted athletic fields, which have a cricket overlay, as well as a pedestrian bridge and river overlooks.
The new park spurred creation of an in-house Recreation and Parks Department, with eight full-time employees and a dozen part-timers headed by Director Erica Madsen. The city had previously contracted parks services through Jacob Engineering, which answered to the Johns Creek Public Works Department.
The fields at Cauley Creek Park had sparked debate among various sports teams without a home, vying for the space — an issue that had been identified in the Recreation and Parks Master Plan, approved in March.
But, Newtown Park Association was named as the youth sports provider for Cauley Creek and Shakerag parks, is set to work with other organizations that provide programming it doesn’t currently offer, like tackle football and cricket.
To activate its athletic fields, Johns Creek has historically partnered with nonprofit youth athletic associations through facility use agreements.
Other parks received improvements at the tail-end of the year, with the completed installation of field lights at Newtown Park, a capital improvement highlighted in the Master Plan, and the groundbreaking on renovation of the pickleball courts at Newtown Park. The cracked surface of the courts at Newtown will be demolished and replaced with six pickleball courts.
The Johns Creek City Council also fully funded Creekside Park with fiscal year 2023 leftovers, the centerpiece of the city’s Town Center. The groundbreaking on park construction is scheduled for next summer.
But, the city began working on a trail connection for the park, set for completion this month, which will connect the path around the pond behind City Hall to Medlock Bridge Road. The area will include a sculpture using steel from the old Rogers Bridge that spanned the Chattahoochee to Duluth.
By the end of October 2025, city leaders expect 100 percent occupancy of the Town Center and its grand opening.
The project includes Medley, a mixed-used development headed by Avalon’s Mark Toro, and Massachusetts-based Boston Scientific as well as public investments in the form of park space and infrastructure improvements.
The city has begun work on a number of projects to enhance the Town Center area, like a pedestrian tunnel under Medlock Bridge Road and intersection improvements for Medlock Bridge as well as the entrance to Medley. No definitive date for the groundbreaking on Toro’s development has been set.
This year, the city also centered on sustainability to advance its Green Communities certification through the Atlanta Regional Commission, a strategic priority that was set at the beginning of the year.
Olivia Ammons, assistant to the city manager, said Johns Creek’s “Going Green” is the branded effort of pursuing the certification, which involved launching the logo and the Sustainability Resource Center webpage in the spring.
Added to the city’s successful glass recycling location that opened last fall, Johns Creek partnered with Forsyth County for a 90-day recycling pilot program this September.
Previously, residents recycled through Keep North Fulton Beautiful in Sandy Springs, but the program with Forsyth County provides a northern option for recycling drop-offs. Following the 90-day period, the city is set to review the results of the pilot program to determine the feasibility of a long-term partnership for recycling services.
Johns Creek also awarded grant funding to Ocee Elementary and Northview High School through its new “Go Green” grant program, intended to encourage environmental stewardship and education among K-12 students.
A project started internally, the city began providing event vendors with aluminum cans of “Creek Water,” poised to reduce the tens of thousands of plastic water bottles distributed at functions each year.
The biggest transportation project of the year is the widening of Jones Bridge Road, intended to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety and access from Waters Road to State Bridge Road. A two-year effort, the project is scheduled to be completed in summer 2025.
Public Works Director Chris Haggard provided an updated total construction cost at $23 million. Funded by transportation special purpose local option sales tax, or TSPLOST I funding, the project saw a price hike from the $11 million budgeted in 2016.
Another major transportation project this year is the $5 million intersection improvement at Haynes Bridge and Old Alabama roads. Its ribbon-cutting was held Dec. 22.
The project includes the addition of turn lanes and pedestrian improvements, to assist in the reduction of delays and congestion, while also providing pedestrian connectivity along the corridor.
According to the city’s webpage for the project, Haynes Bridge Road was designed to handle 12,390 cars a day but had reached 47 percent over capacity.
This year, Haggard said Johns Creek has spent $16 million in total on completed transportation projects, which includes $4 million in annual resurfacing. But, he said more has been spent on projects still in the works.

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Last week, representatives from Johns Creek’s business community got an update on the city’s Town Center development, which is poised to bring industry, park space, restaurants and retail to 192 acres near the McGinnis Ferry Road and Johns Creek Parkway intersection.
Johns Creek Economic Development Director Randal Toussaint and other city leaders shared news about the project and the 42-acre Medley multi-use development, which will anchor the future Johns Creek Town Center, at the Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce meeting Aug. 23.
Toussaint, who spoke at length about the project during the meeting, said that many good things are happening, and the future of the project is bright.
“Oct. 31, 2025, We're expected to have 100 percent occupancy and the grand opening,” he said.
As an “eatertainment” destination and “third place” beyond work and home, Medley will consist of 200,000 square feet of commercial space, which includes 80,000 square feet of retail, 60,000 square feet of restaurants and up to 60,000 square feet of entertainment use. The site will also feature 110,000 square feet of office space, 137 fee-simple townhomes and 750 luxury multifamily units.
Plans call for two multifamily parking decks, more than 12 acres of civic space and nearly 3 acres of amenity space.
In the larger Town Center project as a whole, leaders said that residents should expect to see large investments from industry-leading companies like the Massachusetts-based Boston Scientific, which has chosen to build its new facility in Johns Creek, as well as public investments in the form of park space and infrastructure improvements.
“That project alone is going to generate over 300 new jobs within the City of Johns Creek and their new research facility being constructed across the street is going to be a capital investment of about $68.5 million,” Toussaint said.
City leaders said that for too long, Johns Creek residents have looked outside of the city, to places like Alpharetta, Cumming, Sandy Springs and Buckhead for places to spend their time and money. A recent study by the city reportedly showed they are losing about $1 billion in retail revenue each year by not having an Avalon or Halcyon-style development.
They also believe the lack of places to go in Johns Creek for shopping, dining and fun, has had a definite chilling effect on the city’s long-term prospects of attracting young, well-educated and highly-paid residents.
But all of that will end with the completion of the Johns Creek Town Center.
“Think about the spending power of those students, think about where they would want to work after they leave high school and go off to college. The answer should always be, right here in our community,” Toussaint said. “We're at a moment in which we're actually beginning to create the types of jobs that our amazing schools are producing talent for.”
Additionally, Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce members heard from Parks and Recreation Director Erica Madsen, who spoke about Creekside Park, a greenspace and trailway that will connect different areas of the Johns Creek Town Center with multi-use paths.
Public Works Director Chris Haggard also spoke about the many transportation and infrastructure projects that will be required to complete the Town Center project.
Officials do not have a groundbreaking date slated for the Town Center yet, but said that it will be announced in the coming months.
A groundbreaking for the Boston Scientific facility is tentatively scheduled for this September.

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — The Johns Creek Planning Commission held their monthly meeting on Jan. 9 at the City Hall Council Chambers. The meeting centered around a land use petition requesting the commercial use and development of a 4.7-acre tract at 6650 McGinnis Ferry Road. Principal Planner Ruchi Agarwal led a presentation providing an overview of the development project and breaking down the potential use of the available space.
“The applicant is requesting to change conditions for this property,” Agarwal said. “The request is to allow for 69,192 square feet of commercial development which includes daycare, restaurants, liquor store, retail and medical offices.”
Located at the southwest corner of McGinnis Ferry Road and Johns Creek Parkway, the property remains mostly undeveloped except for 17 parking spaces along McGinnis Ferry.
Representing applicant Vantage Commercial Contractors at the meeting, petitioner Jay Parekh discussed his request to change zoning conditions to provide gross floor area across four buildings. Also included in the request is a variance allowing for an encroachment into the 75-foot stream buffer for a stream restoration project including construction of a 10-foot-wide greenway, public amenity areas and pedestrian access to the trail.
“We are very excited about this development…In everything that we do, we try to elevate all of the proposed ideas in any of our developments,” Parekh said. “This is something special for us…we are actually going to be operating it. My family will be patrons at this place.”
He broke down the key businesses that will be part of the proposed development. They include Luma Montessori, Strong Water liquor warehouse, Brunchbar Social and Bru Foundry. The development will also include a rooftop playground and indoor atrium.
Parekh emphasized that this development would serve as a “place to gather” for guests and residents rather than a simple dining location. While there was initial concern from the Planning Commission members with the layout including a liquor store next to the daycare center, Parekh said there will be an open area and an additional retail space dividing the two locations.
“That was done with intent and purpose. We do have interest from some retail service providers that would go there and would be ‘child-friendly’ of you will,” Parekh said.
Upon final review, the commissioners voted unanimously to recommend proceeding with the development. Final approval must pass a vote of the City Council at an upcoming meeting.
The Planning Commission will hold its next meeting on April 16 to discuss land use petitions for locations on Abbotts Bridge Road and Hospital Parkway.

Another thing that makes Johns Creek so special is that the 80,000-plus residents who call the area home enjoy a tight-knit, inclusive community. The city prioritizes adaptive recreation programs; hosts celebrations to honor Lunar New Year, Juneteenth and Diwali; and has an International Festival that recognizes the city’s diverse residents. Also, the Johns Creek Veterans Memorial Walk, within Newtown Park, holds monuments to honor veterans and is a community space where visitors can pay their respects.
Additionally, the city’s natural beauty sets it apart. Johns Creek has several parks and natural areas, including the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, Autrey Mill Nature Preserve and Newtown Park. These areas offer residents plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking and fishing.
Johns Creek is a dog-friendly place to live, too. In fact, the Newtown Dream Dog Park is one of the best in the country, outfitted with sprinklers, a spraying hydrant, hoops, tunnels and more. Let’s just say there’s a whole lot of dog-gone fun to have here!
Safe neighborhoods, excellent schools and a thriving economy all contribute to ranking Johns Creek one of the best places to live in the U.S. Learn more about living in Johns Creek, or consider other affordable places to live in the Southeast.
