Detailed Introduction

Intown Dental Center is a well-established dental practice situated at 1250 Caroline St NE, Atlanta, GA 30307, within the bustling Edgewood Retail Shopping District. The practice was founded in 2010 by Dr. Janet Kim Kearns, who envisioned a practice that would provide comprehensive dental care to the local "intown" neighborhoods of Atlanta. Dr. Kearns, an alumna of Emory University and New York University (DDS), completed her general practice residency at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan before bringing her expertise to Atlanta. Intown Dental Center prides itself on being a family-owned practice dedicated to serving patients of all ages with a wide range of dental and orthodontic services. Their comprehensive offerings include: General Dentistry: This encompasses routine check-ups, cleanings, tooth-colored fillings, and preventive care to maintain overall oral health. Cosmetic Dentistry: Services aimed at enhancing smiles include teeth whitening, bonding, veneers, and crowns. Orthodontics: They offer both traditional braces and clear aligners (such as Invisalign) to correct misaligned teeth and improve bite function and aesthetics. Restorative Dentistry: This includes procedures like crowns, bridges, dental implants for missing teeth, root canal therapy to save damaged teeth, and dentures/partials. Specialized Treatments: Intown Dental Center also provides advanced solutions for conditions such as sleep apnea (with at-home testing and oral appliances as CPAP alternatives) and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders, offering custom-fit appliances to alleviate jaw pain and tooth wear. Pediatric Dentistry: The practice caters to children, offering cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, and conservative cavity treatments. Other Services: They also utilize laser dentistry for various soft tissue treatments and offer Botox injections for both cosmetic purposes and to relax muscles affected by clenching. The philosophy of Intown Dental Center revolves around providing personalized service in a relaxed and convenient environment. They are committed to delivering comprehensive and caring diagnoses, followed by conservative treatment plans that prioritize lifetime oral health. The team frequently engages in continuing education to stay abreast of the latest dental techniques and technologies, ensuring high standards of care. They are known for their patient-centric approach, focusing on satisfaction, honesty, and transparency in their interactions. Financially, Intown Dental Center is insurance-friendly, accepting all PPO insurance plans and being preferred providers with many. They also work with patients to maximize benefits from direct reimbursement or flex spending plans and offer financing options like Care Credit. Their convenient location within a retail district allows patients to combine their dental visits with other errands, adding to the overall patient convenience.

First time client here and very happy with their service. Simone did a deep cleaning, which I have not done one in awhile, and she did an EXCELLENT job. She was very thorough and you can tell she was well experienced and skilled in what she did. I am very happy to have found Dr. Kearns and will being using her team going forward.

My husband and I were both over-diagnosed by the dentist here. I was prescribed a very expensive night guard which actually exacerbated my issues, as confirmed by the specialist this dentist referred me to. My husband was diagnosed with numerous cavities, only to be told by two other dentists in the area that he has zero cavities. Previously, Dr. Kearns filled multiple cavities that caused my husband significant sensitivity and pain that continues to this day.

In addition, you will never get the same hygienist twice here, as they seem to have independent contractors rotating in and out of the practice. So, you always have to explain any sensitive areas to your hygienist. The only positive here is that the receptionists have always been friendly and helpful. We have both switched to Colony Square Dental Associates, and we feel much more comfortable with the practice there.

I am extraordinarily happy with switching my dental care over to Intown dental center last year. Dr. Kearns is attentive and available and explains the any treatment plan in depth. They are always upfront about any financial responsibility so there are no surprises. Scheduling is easy at this practice and all of the staff that I met are courteous and happy to assist. Highly recommend.

I would recommend this place. I see some of the reviews, but I didn't have any negative experiences here. . . And I was bracing myself for a terrible experience and "sticker shock" just based on my childhood and adult dental experiences.

To my surprise, everyone was nice and professional, and I didn't end up owing a bagillion dollars! I especially like the customer service of the techs/hygienists. Dr. Kearns is pleasant and isn't condescending or abrasive (to patients) like some dental practitioners can be. She explains things well and gives pretty accurate expense quotes. To date, I've only paid MAYBE $200 total out of pocket for all of the services (emergency visit, x-rays, a cleaning and several fillings).

The previous dental practice I went to charged me nearly $400 "my portion"/post insurance/out of pocket for x-rays, a deep cleaning and a fewer number of fillings using THE SAME DENTAL BENEFITS PLAN. It makes no sense! Based on this, I believe Dr. Kearns (unlike the last place I went to) just wants to give people good care while making good use of the available dental benefits allotted within your plan.
