Getting here from Conley
Jonesboro Road — US-41 — runs south out of the Conley and Forest Park area straight to our door at 173 North Main Street. About seven miles, roughly fourteen minutes, and it skips the I-75/I-285 interchange entirely, which is the whole appeal for anyone who has sat in it.
Conley is built around freight and logistics, and a lot of our patients from here work shifts that do not line up with normal office hours — overnight, split, or rotating. Our hours are Monday through Thursday with Friday by appointment; tell us your shift pattern when you call and we will find a slot you can actually keep rather than one you will have to cancel.
There is very little dentistry in Conley itself, so residents are used to driving for it — the question is just which direction. South on US-41 keeps you out of the interstate knot and lands you at a small, personal practice rather than a high-volume one.
Emergency Dental Care for Conley
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or crown, or pain that is keeping you up, we hold urgent slots and can usually see you same-day or next-day — about fourteen minutes south on Jonesboro Road. An emergency room can hand you antibiotics and pain relief but cannot fix the tooth, so for a dental problem a dental office is the faster route to it being over. Call (770) 478-1001. The exception — swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or a facial injury — belongs at Southern Regional Medical Center in Riverdale, or call 911.

Insurance Questions We Hear From Conley
A lot of Conley coverage comes through logistics, warehouse, and transport employers — plans that change with the job and often carry waiting periods on major work. Two things worth knowing: some benefits on a new plan do not start on day one, so we will check before treatment rather than after; and we file claims as a courtesy and are not in HMO or managed-care networks. If your plan requires an assigned in-network provider, we will tell you plainly.
