“I've been going here for around 4 years and I love the staff and service at Dentistry in Buckhead (Dr. Peter Pate DDS). They are kind, fun and always chatty. I always feel better after leaving there because of their general happiness. They are good at what they do and are very considerate of your comfort level.”

“After going to a couple of jaded dentists with sloppy hygienists, I appreciate Dr. Pate and his team so much more now. Dr. Pate and his hygienists take time with patients to be thorough and educate. They pay attention to detail and have excellent bedside manner. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and each other, like family...it's more than a career, they behave like it's a calling.”

April C., Sandy Springs, GA

“What a different experience! Dr. Pate and his staff go out of their way to make your experience comfortable and pleasant. They are incredibly informative and make sure to include you in the total process.”

    ClearCorrect Braces Discreetly Straighten Teeth

    Many adults dream of a more attractive smile, but they simply can’t make peace with the idea of wearing noticeable metal braces in order to correct gaps and misalignments. Thankfully, there’s now an image-friendly alternative: ClearCorrect. This modern orthodontic technique relies on clear aligners instead of the tried-and-true wires and brackets, which blend in well with your enamel and are even removable for added convenience. Dr. Pate can help you determine whether or not ClearCorrect is right for you during a consultation!
