Dunwody Orthodontics

Dunwody Orthodontics is a highly reputable orthodontic practice based in Lawrenceville and Duluth, Georgia, known for its long-standing commitment to providing exceptional orthodontic care. The practice is led by Dr. Dan D. Dunwody III, a seasoned orthodontist with over 30 years of experience in the field. Dr. Dunwody is a true Georgia native, having completed his education at Lanier High School for Boys in Macon, the University of Georgia in Athens, and Emory University School of Dentistry, where he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 1977 and his Certificate of Orthodontics in 1979. He is a certified Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics and actively participates in various leading dental and orthodontic organizations, including leadership positions in the Southern Association of Orthodontists and the Georgia Association of Orthodontists. Dunwody Orthodontics is dedicated to offering the highest quality orthodontic care in a family-based, high-technology environment. They leverage proven, state-of-the-art technology and advanced procedures to ensure every patient achieves a healthy, beautiful smile. Key services offered include traditional braces, the Damon® Bracket System, and Invisalign®. The Damon® System utilizes self-ligating brackets and lighter archwires for more comfortable, efficient treatment and potentially fewer appointments. Invisalign® provides a discreet alternative to traditional braces, using custom-made clear plastic aligners to gradually shift teeth into ideal positions. The team at Dunwody Orthodontics is highly experienced, with most staff members having been with Dr. Dunwody for over a decade, contributing to more than 100 years of combined orthodontic experience (excluding Dr. Dunwody's own). They are well-trained, professional, and courteous, holding certifications in CPR, assisting, expanded duties, and radiology. The practice focuses on a patient-first approach, striving to make the orthodontic journey fun, affordable, interactive, and effective. They emphasize personalized care, comprehensive evaluations, and open discussions about treatment options, timeframes, and financial arrangements to ensure patient satisfaction. Their commitment extends to continuous education, staying abreast of the latest advancements in dentofacial growth and development, occlusion, temporomandibular joints, and practice management.
