A Modern Marietta Dental Practice Built on Advanced Technology
Gilreath Family Dentistry continually evaluates and invests in new dental technology to give patients the most precise, comfortable and efficient care possible. Advances in digital imaging, 3D scanning and in-office milling have transformed what a single dental visit can accomplish. Our Marietta dental office brings those advances to every patient.
“This is an exciting time to practice dentistry because there have been so many technological advancements over the last few years that help the dentist provide wonderful care for patients,” says Dr. Gilreath. “A modern practice must incorporate these technologies and without them, I feel that patients are not being adequately served.”
CEREC Same Day Crowns
CEREC technology allows our doctors to design, mill and place custom porcelain crowns in a single visit. Patients leave with a permanent, natural looking restoration the same day, with no temporary crown and no second appointment.

3D Dental CT Scans
3D cone beam CT imaging provides a detailed, three dimensional view of the teeth, jawbone, nerves and sinuses. This advanced imaging supports precise dental implant planning and accurate diagnosis of complex dental concerns.

No Impressions Digital Scanning
Digital intraoral scanners replace messy, uncomfortable impression trays with a quick, comfortable scan. The result is a highly accurate 3D model of the teeth used for crowns, Invisalign and other restorations.

About Dental Technology
Gilreath Family Dentistry uses advanced dental technology including CEREC same day crowns, 3D cone beam CT scans, digital intraoral scanning in place of traditional impressions, and an all digital workflow. Our Marietta office also uses digital X-rays, computer-aided anesthesia and surgically guided implant placement. Together, these tools support precise diagnosis, comfortable treatment and faster results.
CEREC is an in-office CAD/CAM system that lets our doctors design, mill and place a custom porcelain crown in a single appointment. Instead of wearing a temporary crown for weeks while a lab makes the final restoration, patients at Gilreath Family Dentistry leave with a permanent crown the same day. Same day crowns save time and eliminate a second visit.
A 3D dental CT scan shows the teeth, jawbone, nerves and sinuses in three dimensions, which traditional X-rays cannot capture. At Gilreath Family Dentistry, 3D CT imaging is especially valuable for dental implant planning, evaluating complex dental concerns and identifying issues that may not appear on standard X-rays. This detailed view supports safer, more predictable treatment.
Yes. Digital impressions use a small handheld scanner to capture a precise 3D image of the teeth, replacing trays filled with thick impression material. Patients at our Marietta dental office appreciate that there is no gagging, no messy putty and no waiting for material to set. Digital scans are also more accurate, which leads to better fitting crowns and restorations.
An all digital workflow connects every step of dental treatment, from imaging and scanning to restoration design and fabrication, in one digital system. At Gilreath Family Dentistry, this approach improves accuracy, reduces human error and shortens treatment timelines. For patients, it means fewer appointments and more predictable results.
In many cases, yes. Technologies like CEREC and digital scanning allow treatments that once required two or more appointments to be completed in a single visit at our Marietta office. Fewer visits mean less time away from work and family, which is a major benefit for busy professionals.
Yes. All dental technology at Gilreath Family Dentistry is proven, FDA cleared and used by highly trained doctors. Digital X-rays and modern imaging systems are designed to capture detailed images efficiently, and our doctors only recommend imaging when it supports a patient’s diagnosis or treatment plan.
At Gilreath Family Dentistry, 3D CT scans and digital planning allow our doctors to map the ideal position for each dental implant before treatment begins. Surgically guided implant placement then transfers that plan precisely into the mouth. This approach supports greater accuracy, a more comfortable procedure and predictable, long lasting implant results.
