Macke Dental Care

Macke Dental Care is a well-established dental practice situated in the historic district of Roswell, Georgia. The practice is primarily led by Dr. Wendy Macke and Dr. Susannah Waronker, who are dedicated to providing high-quality, comprehensive dental care to individuals and families. Their philosophy revolves around a patient-centric approach, emphasizing individualized attention, fostering lifelong relationships, and ensuring a comfortable and compassionate environment for all patients. The practice offers a wide array of dental services, catering to the diverse oral health needs of both children and adults. These services span three main categories: Preventive Dentistry: Macke Dental Care places a strong emphasis on proactive oral health. This includes routine dental cleanings and comprehensive examinations, often conducted 2-4 times a year for teenagers and adults. During these visits, dentists meticulously inspect the mouth, tongue, soft tissue, jaw joints, and teeth to identify any signs of decay, gum infection, or bone loss. They also utilize digital dental x-rays for a more thorough assessment of tooth roots and jaw bone. This preventative focus aims to help patients maintain their natural teeth for life, recognizing its importance for overall physical health. Restorative Dentistry: For patients with existing dental issues, Macke Dental Care provides various restorative options to rebuild oral health and restore smile confidence. These services include, but are not limited to: Composite restorations (fillings): Used to treat small areas of tooth decay or correct minor cosmetic flaws like gaps or chipped edges. Dental crowns and bridges: To restore teeth with large fillings, old dental work, or to replace missing teeth. Tooth replacement options: Including immediate dentures, implant-supported dentures, and overdentures, designed to meet individual patient needs and prevent bone loss. The practice collaborates with local dental specialists such as endodontists, periodontists, and oral surgeons for complex cases requiring specialized treatment like root canals, gum surgery, or wisdom teeth extractions. Cosmetic Dentistry: Beyond functional restorations, Macke Dental Care also offers cosmetic treatments to enhance the aesthetics of a patient's smile. These include: Teeth whitening: Professional-strength whitening gel and custom trays are provided to effectively remove stains and lighten tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers: An excellent solution for closing gaps, masking chipped, unevenly spaced, crooked, oddly shaped, or discolored teeth, providing a complete "smile makeover." Cosmetic crowns and bridges: Utilizing natural-looking materials like dental porcelain and zirconia to rebuild teeth while creating a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
