During my last visit for standard cleaning, I was unexpectedly told that I required a full mouth-deep cleaning to keep my teeth. This is just another standard scare tactic to upsell. It seems like someone needed to make a quota. I went to another dentist to get a second opinion; after a very detailed exam with imaging, I was told that a costly deep cleaning was NOT required. Take care of your teeth, just don't use these guys.

After I entered the Marietta Dental and Implant Center, it was at that point that I decided to go…read moreto Yelp to look at the reviews. I am not sure why I didn't look here first, but I suppose it was due to what was considered in-network with my insurance coverage that made the decision for me and it was not to far from where I live. I was impressed that the office entry was very cozy and comfortable. The decor was simple, yet elegantly placed and it had a sophisticated design. There was a coffee and tea station available and the receptionist seemed very welcoming and friendly. While I waited to be seen, I decided to look at the reviews. Nothing too startling about the negative feedback generated any concern because I always look at who is providing those reviews. A few things I use to make my consideration for which business I select are (1) Is the review completed by a YELP elite? This matters to me because there is a reason we earn that distinction and it matters to me when I see that they have taken the time to make a careful review of the business. (2) How many friends the person has on Yelp? I know that if there are zero friends and no photos then it is highly possible the review could be fake or generated from a competing business who desires to tarnish the reputation of the competitor's business. (3) What the does the actual review SAY about the business that matters most of all? This is important to me because I need to know what the business did or did not do that they should be doing under the guidelines of what they are in business for. Back to the review... Once I was called back to the space where I would have my cleaning procedure completed, the young lady told me that she would take my ex-rays and then the dentist would review them to recommend what I needed and if I agreed they would proceed with the cleaning. She was not a touchy feely personality for her approach is very matter-of-fact and assertive. I was not sure how this would pan out if she was the person to clean my teeth. Her comment about the dentist's recommendation was a little off-putting to me and it raised a red flag in my mind because I did read someone's review that they believed they were overcharged or felt that they were being duped into coming out of pocket unnecessarily for something they believed was intentional to generate more revenue in addition to the insurance claim. In the past, I have always had my cleaning first then the dentist would come in and check the work. I have to mention that I am ashamed to admit that it had been a long while since I have had my teeth professionally cleaned, but I have always had great teeth with never any cavities so I was not too worried, but my suspicion was charged and by the time the dentist came in to meet with me I was already on high alert. Dr. Johnson seemed nice enough. He explained to me my potential condition with a great detailed analogy, so I felt a little better and more trusting of what he told me. I felt a little ridiculous because I had garnered a cold attitude towards him due to those negative reviews in the back of my mind, but I remained cautiously optimistic. I soon discovered that a very kind person whose name that I cannot remember, but it started with an "L" I think would be the person who cleaned my teeth. This was a welcomed surprise because her energy is positive, upbeat, and she is more personable than the initial ex-ray lady. The dental hygienist knows how to engage people and is more interested in getting to know people which makes a patient feel better and welcome. The spaces where you are sitting in the chair has no closed door spaces. It is open and they seem to have the latest technology available as well. My dental hygienist had a lot of work to do, but she did it well and she also explained and talked about what she was experiencing inside my mouth. I appreciated her willingness to share her yard work and the community competition with me which made me take my mind off of the procedure and minimize the anxiety. Afterwards, I was given my little goodie bag and was on my way. I will be back in six months under this time will give me more of a rounded perspective of this practice. For now, I will give them 4.5 stars, but if anything changes that made it either outstanding or miserable, I will let you know.

Long HAPPY customer review. Skip to the end for the TL;DR…read more I unknowingly had a filling come out and another cavity developing after a regular cleaning. I was told I'd need the cavity drilled out and a crown put on as the tooth would be too far gone to repair. This particular dentist was out of network, so I'd need to go in-network for the work. I went to a local big box dental office where I was treated like both a number and a dollar sign. They confirmed that I'd need a crown in addition to several other upcharges. I didn't like anything about that office or dentist, so was determined to find a small independent dentist. I went to my dental insurance website and looked for any independent dentist within 25 miles of my home. It seems the only dentists in-network are big corporate offices with multiple dentists and bad reviews. I finally stumbled upon Dr. Mantique Johnson. The reviews were confusing because multiple dentists were mentioned at this address. The newer reviews were great, but some of the older ones were not so good. When I went to their website, there was only one dentist listed. I called to see if he was indeed the only dentist there and it was confirmed, so I decided to give him a try. I called to schedule an appointment assuming it would be several weeks out, but they said they could see me that very same day. I was greeted by the friendly receptionist and almost immediately called back. X-rays were taken and Dr. Johnson came right in. He asked me why I was there, I told him that I was told by 2 dentists that I needed a crown, he took a look, and immediately said he could drill out the cavity and fill the tooth without needing a crown. WHAT?! I didn't think this was even a possibility! He asked if I wanted to proceed, I confirmed, and then I was given the out-of-pocket amount after insurance. I approved and he immediately got to work. I was given numbing gel and even asked what I'd like to watch on TV. He came back a few minutes later, gave me my numbing injections (I barely felt them), and started drilling. He drilled out the cavity, filled it with porcelain, and worked on it until my bite was perfect. I was in and out in no time and was never once nervous or uncomfortable. Dr. Johnson has such a calm demeanor and was always letting me know what was happening and allowed for breaks if so desired. When it was time to pay the bill, it was only a tiny portion of what I was expecting. I truly couldn't be happier. Now that I was so happy Dr. Johnson and his office, I decided I wanted to become a permanent customer. I went in and was greeted by hygienist Lene. She was so friendly, informative, warm, and funny. She took all the necessary x-rays as well as my gum measurements. I told Lene that my previous cleaning was only 3 months ago, she said I didn't need one yet, but would be happy to do a cleaning. We decided to wait 2 more months just to be safe. You have to love the honesty of everyone at this office. As Lene said, she treats everyone as she likes to be treated and held true to that. One sidenote; the reviews online are for the physical Marietta Dental Center building regardless of who used to work there. Keep this in mind as Dr. Johnson has only been there since December 2022. Any reviews prior to that are not for him or his staff. Pay attention to the dates of the reviews. I've never been happier with a dentist and dental office than this one. TL; DR: Dr. Johnson is the best dentist I've ever encountered in all my years. He's passionate about what he's doing and isn't looking to upsell you. He and his entire staff are top notch. Make the switch; you won't be disappointed!

I have seen him for all my 6 month cleanings & exams since then. He doesn't push unnecessary filings or expensive deep cleaning treatments like the other dentist I have seen. He is a good, honest dentist that isn't just trying to as much money out of you (and your insurance company) as possible. He seems to be in-network for most insurance plans, so I cannot comment on how inexpensive or expensive he is. Heidi is my favorite hygienist in his office, and she is always makes my appointments more enjoyable. However, she does try to talk to me while she's got sharp objects or the polishing tool in my mouth :-) I have always enjoyed going to the dentist, and Dr. Gabriel and his staff is as much like what I remember when I was a kid in a small town as I think I'm going to get in Atlanta. They are also able to accomodate my busy work schedule with their 5pm and 6pm appointment options.

My family had a very stressful experience with Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry of Atlanta. My mom was…read morereferred here for extractions and implants and was quoted around $75,000. From the first visit, the focus felt heavily on financing--she was encouraged to apply with multiple lenders, and surgery was scheduled within days. The office contacted her repeatedly during the weekend, including in the evening hours, and asked her to set up online banking access so they could see what she could put down. Once I became involved, the finance person and dentist stopped answering calls and did not respond to voicemails. She chose not to proceed and attempted to confirm she would not be charged; after that, communication stopped. She then received a $12,000 CareCredit charge, and the doctor was paid despite no surgery being performed by Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry of Atlanta. We are in an ongoing dispute with CareCredit/Synchrony, which has treated the charge as valid based on signed intake/treatment plan/financing documents, without confirming that the procedure actually took place through clinical documentation (for example: procedure notes, anesthesia record, extraction/implant charting, implant serial/lot numbers, radiographs taken day-of, dated post-op instructions, or other records tied to an actual date of service). We have filed a criminal complaint with the Cobb County Sheriff's Office. Please use caution, ask detailed questions before authorizing any financing, and consider getting multiple opinions/quotes.

(Warning‼ to Potential Clients! 1-Star Review…read more I am sharing my experience at Aesthetic Implant Dentistry of Atlanta to warn potential clients--especially those on a budget or relying on financing--to research carefully before choosing this office. I originally applied for a loan through their office for a procedure I specifically requested. After the loan was approved, I was later informed by Dr. Motoban that the procedure would no longer be possible. In spite of that, the finance company had already paid the office, and I was now obligated to repay the loan for a procedure I was no longer getting. When I requested that the loan be canceled in August, the office stopped responding. For nearly three months, they gave me the runaround and avoided assisting me in any way to rectify the situation. During this period, I was forced to pay on a loan I could not use, while the office refused to cooperate with the finance company to cancel it. My calls were screened, and messages were ignored by the office. I live an hour away, so the only way to get any type of response was to show up in person unannounced. I went into this process very insecure about my smile. They took advantage of that and knew it would fuel me to follow whatever they suggested in order to get approved for a higher loan limit. Once that higher loan was denied, they ceased all communication with me entirely. It wasn't until I began pursuing professional outside options that the office suddenly claimed everything had been an "oversight." What they refused to resolve for nearly four months, they completed in ten minutes once outside pressure was applied. When I finally went to the office in tears, the office manager's "NEW‼ assistant (Mrs. Morah) who had just started and was not involved in the earlier communication--showed genuine kindness and empathy toward me. I shared with her how this experience had terribly affected my credit. Sadly, Dr. Motoban refused to honor my cancellation request and even instructed her not to give me a receipt after I mentioned the possibility of legal action. Based on my experience, I strongly encourage potential clients to read reviews carefully, ask questions, and be cautious--especially if you are working with limited finances or relying on payment plans. Patients deserve transparency, honesty, and respectful treatment from start to finish.

His level of skill and precision is unmatched -- he is incredibly meticulous and never lets me leave until he knows I'm completely comfortable and satisfied with the work. What sets Dr. G apart is how deeply he cares about his patients. He takes the time to thoroughly explain every procedure, making sure I understand exactly what's happening and why. I have an autoimmune disease, and he always approaches my care through a thoughtful, holistic lens. He considers my overall health, not just my teeth, which gives me such peace of mind. Recently, I had to have a tooth extracted, and instead of rushing the appointment, he sat with me for an extended period to walk through all my options, carefully explaining the pros and cons of each. He never makes me feel pressured -- only informed and supported. His calm, compassionate demeanor completely alleviates any anxiety I have about dental work. I truly cannot express in enough words how grateful I am to have found Dr. G. Exceptional skill, genuine compassion, and unwavering attention to detail -- he embodies everything you could hope for in a dentist. I recommend him wholeheartedly!
