Dentistry at Hickory Flat Drs. Katherine and Brian Lee Provide Quality Dental Care and Sparkling Smiles By Kathleen Boehmig Dr. Katherine and Dr. Brian Lee are skilled dentists and a happily married couple with a passion for providing a comprehensive range of family dental services, which include general care, restorative services, cosmetic and implant dentistry, and orthodontics. Their practice offers a variety of dental services to the Canton area and surrounding cities of Woodstock, Cartersville, Calhoun, Acworth, Jasper, Ball Ground, Holly Springs and Alpharetta via two offices in Cumming and Hickory Flat. Dr. Brian Lee graduated from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, one of the nations top dental schools, in 2003. Before that, Dr. Lee grew up in Marietta, GA and graduated from Alan C. Pope High School in the East Cobb area. He then went on to UGA to receive a degree in Microbiology. While at UGA, he met his wife, Dr. Katherine Lee. Dr. Katherine Lee graduated from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, also in 2003. While in dental school, she became so passionate about patient education and motivation concerning oral health that she also enrolled in the public health program and earned a Master of Public Health degree. Brian and Katherine married right after graduation from dental school and moved to New York to complete their residency programs. They spent another three years there working as associate dentists for private dental offices. Dr. Brian Lee completed his general practice residency at Wyckoff Height Medical Center in Brooklyn, where his hard work and devotion was recognized with a Resident of the Year Award in 2004. Dr. Katherine Lee completed her general practice residency at the Veterans Affair Hospital in Brooklyn, which is renowned for its excellent residency program. The Lees moved back to their home state of Georgia in early 2007 to follow their dream of opening a state-of-the-art office. They have two sons, Brandon and Jayden. Brandon plays the violin and the piano with dreams of one day becoming a musician, while Jayden, who also plays the piano and cello, loves sports and hopes to one day be a dentist like his parents. The Lees are so devoted to providing the best possible dental care to their patients that they spend many weekends attending continuing education courses all around the country especially in dental implantology and cosmetic dentistry. Its a juggling act to balance it all, Katherine says with a laugh. Our parents have helped us out with the kids along the way. In addition to his busy schedule, Brian travels to Haiti every year to provide one week of free dental care to local residents. Brian adds, Our dream is to provide a number of dental and orthodontic services under one roof, making it more convenient for patients who dont have to go to several different practices to get varied types of service. The Lees practice stands out. Everyone longs for a stunning smile, Brian says, and we can give you flawless, enviable teeth in only a couple of appointments using customized cosmetic dentistry solutions. Restorative and cosmetic services include Opalescence Boost Teeth Whitening, Porcelain Veneers, Tooth-colored fillings and dental implants, crowns and bridgework, cosmetic bonding, partials and dentures. One of the most innovative procedures offered by the Lees is FDA-approved LANAP Laser gum therapy to treat advanced cases of gum disease. LANAP Laser gum therapy is a no-scalpel, no-suture alternative to traditional methods, meaning patients can receive the treatment they need in a more comfortable, less invasive manner. And because LANAP Laser gum therapy actually promotes regeneration, patients can also look forward to a much shorter recovery time. Katherine states, Its estimated that as many as 75-80% of adults have some form of gum disease. Patients who need advanced treatment, though, may feel wary about seeking the treatment they need. In many cases, advanced gum disease therapy involves treatment with a scalpel and sutures but not at our dental offices. Dentistry at Hickory Flat offers a calm, elegant atmosphere, friendly staff, and even sedation dentistry for patients who suffer due to dental anxiety and fear. Brian says, Feelings of apprehension regarding dentistry are quite common, and they are usually the result of an unpleasant experience during childhood or even young adulthood. Through sedation dentistry, youll find that you feel completely relaxed and calm, though you will still remain somewhat conscious during your appointment. Our staff is a big help. It was a real challenge to set up a good team, and we are confident that weve accomplished that. Chelli and Michelle are a big part of our success. Pricing for services is competitive, with several online specials available on their website, HickoryFlatDentist.com. As well, they are an in-network provider for most major PPO plans. The most rewarding part of it all is getting peoples dental pain to end, and seeing how much they appreciate what we do, Katherine says. Drs. Katherine and Brian Lee are happily fulfilling their dream of providing quality dental care to patients in needand the area is lucky to have them. Dentistry at Hickory FlatDrs.
