Dental Examination
You can bring your child with you to your dental checkup at about the age of two to become familiar with the sights, sounds, and friendly helpers in our dental office. We call this a Happy Visit. Your child's independent checkup at age three will involve a tooth-by-tooth inspection and periodontal exam. Dr. Peter Pate, your children’s dentist in Buckhead, will check to ensure that their mouth is properly developing, and search for signs of tooth decay as well as any other areas of concern.
X-rays
Dental X-rays have been an essential diagnostic tool in dentistry for a very long time, so we have made a conscious effort to use only the very best version of them in our office. With digital x-rays, we can quickly create highly-accurate images of the hidden surfaces below your teeth, and even better, they emit up to 90% less radiation than traditional x-rays. Plus, because everything is digital, the images can be easily displayed, blown up, and color-coded so Dr. Pate can easily demonstrate what he sees.
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer rates are on the rise here in the United States, especially among young, healthy people who don’t use tobacco or alcohol excessively. This is why the American Cancer Society recommends that patients of all ages should receive at least one oral cancer screening each year. Dr. Pate can perform one as part of your regular checkup, and should he find anything that causes concern, he can help you take quick and appropriate action.

Teeth Cleaning
Gum disease occurs when plaque and tartar buildup at the gum line irritates and destroys soft tissue. Poor oral hygiene is the leading cause of gum disease, so maintaining proper at-home hygiene and visiting us for twice annual professional teeth cleanings are the best way to prevent gum disease. However, there are some other risk factors to keep in mind, including...
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride is a natural mineral present in a variety of foods as well as most tap water sources. It acts to strengthen the enamel of teeth, which is the protective outer layer that guards the fragile and more sensitive inner chamber. Due to the rise of bottled drinking water, some patients don’t receive enough fluoride and are left with weakened enamel, making them more susceptible to cavity formation. In these cases, we may recommend a short and simple fluoride treatment for added protection.
Dental Sealants
Does your child have a sweet tooth? This can be a recipe for oral disaster, especially if they have deep grooves and pits in their teeth that effectively trap harmful bacteria and food debris. For children who are still learning how to properly brush, floss, and maintain good dental health, dental sealants are a great solution to prevent problems from forming. These are shields that are painted directly onto the biting surface of your child’s molars to prevent sugar, carbohydrates, and bacteria from nestling and hiding in their teeth, causing decay.

Fillings
Resin Composite
If you have a chipped, slightly misaligned, or otherwise imperfect tooth that needs cosmetic restoration, we may suggest one-appointment bonding. Dr. Pate will apply a liquid composite resin, shaded to blend with your tooth's natural color, to create a pleasing shape for your tooth. After hardening the resin with a curing light, he will artistically sculpt and polish the restoration.
Veneers
Have chipped, gapped, or discolored teeth stolen the confidence from your smile? Imagine the difference flawless front teeth could make in your life. With porcelain veneers, Dr. Pate can give you the smile of your dreams by changing the color, shape, and size of your teeth. Veneers actually fit over your front teeth, covering imperfections and creating optimal uniformity.
Crowns
The American Dental Association recommends that you see your general dentist at least twice each year for a checkup. At your checkup, Dr. Pate will inspect your soft tissues for oral cancer and periodontal disease. He will also look at each tooth and search for problems like tooth decay or cracks, as well as examine old dental work. Sometimes, old dental treatment wears out and needs to be replaced. We will be happy to replace metal fillings, inlays, onlays, and crowns with tooth-colored alternatives.
Bridges
If you have chipped, cracked, broken, decayed, or even missing teeth, then our team can quickly and effectively repair them using two of the most trusted treatments in all of dentistry: crowns and bridges. A crown fits over the top of a damaged tooth to restore it both structurally and cosmetically, while a bridge can replace one or a row of consecutive missing teeth. In the end, no matter what your smile needs, we’ll be able to provide it.
Dental Bonding
A chipped or broken tooth is more than just an aesthetic concern. It will need to be treated with cosmetic bonding or a crown. If the damage is too severe, the tooth may need to be removed. It’s best to avoid chewing with your tooth and keep it clean until after it has been repaired.
Restorative Dentistry
Most of our patients know we advocate excellent home hygiene habits. We also believe that proper tools will help you at home, just like the best professional dental technology helps us in the office. Battery-powered toothbrushes remove bacteria on and between teeth, and even below the gum line. An electric toothbrush will remove 92 percent of your plaque in just one minute, and it’s safe for cosmetic and restorative dentistry, as well as for braces.

Root Canal Treatment
A toothache often indicates a serious problem, like an infection. If it’s not treated, you could lose your tooth, so you might need a root canal. While you wait for your appointment, use an over-the-counter pain reliever to manage your discomfort.

Deep Cleaning
If we find a cause for concern, we may recommend that you change your oral healthcare routine or the products you use at home. We may also suggest a deep cleaning, which includes...

Dentures
Did you know that 69% of adults have lost at least one tooth, and 50 million Americans have actually lost all of their teeth? When you lose teeth, your oral health diminishes and your confidence suffers. Dentures and partials allow patients to eat the foods they like, speak with self-assurance, and improve their overall wellbeing.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are made up of three main components that all play a specific role in replacing your teeth. This includes the prosthetic root, the restoration that rebuilds your smile, and the abutment that provides stability to the restoration and attaches directly to the implant. Working in tandem, these components ensure you can eat your favorite foods without worrying about the restoration moving or becoming loose. In addition, your tooth feels more natural and provides long-term health benefits, both for your mouth and body. These reasons and more are why Dr. Pate and dentists all over the world recommend them over traditional methods.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
We can also perform simple wisdom tooth extractions in-house as well, though we may need to refer you to an oral surgeon depending on your situation.
Bone Grafting
Preliminary Treatments: It’s not uncommon to require a little prep-work before getting your dentures, like tooth extractions, periodontal therapy, or bone grafting.

Orthodontics
Remember that your mouth is continually supplied with oral bacteria. Bacteria deposit plaque on your teeth that, left untouched, hardens into calculus or tartar. Tartar irritates the gums, initiating the process of gum disease. While regular brushing techniques seldom reach plaque's favorite hiding places, like just below the gumline and between the teeth, power toothbrushes have been clinically proven to reduce plaque and thereby minimize both calculus build up and gingivitis. They're designed to provide simple, effective, consistent access to even the hardest-to-reach places, including around orthodontics, appliances, and restorations without scrubbing, special toothpastes, or fancy techniques.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Braces
The right solution for your smile will depend on a variety of factors. You may want straighter teeth without wearing metal braces. Perhaps dark stains are holding you back. Maybe you have a limited timeframe to complete a cosmetic treatment because you have a wedding or reunion to attend. Dr. Pate offers the latest cosmetic dental solutions so he can better serve your needs. With innovative techniques, we can give you your dream smile, often in just one or two appointments.

Teeth Whitening
Common items like coffee, wine, tobacco, aging, and even genetics can dramatically affect the color of your smile and prevent it from looking its whitest. If you want to turn back the clock, then we have a choice of professional whitening treatments that can effectively and safely whiten your smile up to 10 shades.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We can do all sorts of great things thanks to cosmetic dentistry. With it, we can eliminate just about any flaw you can imagine and give you a beautiful smile you’re always proud to show off. Want whiter teeth or to get rid of noticeable chips and gaps? We can do all that and more with just one or two easy appointments.
General Dentistry
We all know soda is bad for our teeth. You may have even done one of those experiments in third grade where you place a baby tooth in Coke overnight and witness the horrifying consequences. Researchers have done a similar experiment with popular fitness drinks and with startling results. According to a study published in the AGD’s journal General Dentistry, energy drinks can cause 3 to 11 times more enamel erosion than soft drinks.
