DR. ROYA N. AKBAR 

Cosmetic Dentistry is a skill few practitioners perfect.  Dr. Akbar is among the top cosmetic dentists in the Marietta area.  Her specialized training combined with the latest technology and techniques, provides her patients with compassionate care and professional expertise.

After graduating with a bachelor’s degree of Science and Biology from Brenau University in Gainesville, Georgia, she went on to attend the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta where she received her D.M.D.

From there, Dr. Akbar furthered her studies at Oklahoma University in Oklahoma City where she received a postgraduate degree in advanced education in general dentistry.  She was licensed by the Georgia Board of Dentistry in 1990 and began practicing in Atlanta by 1991.  She has been in private practice at her current location for the past ten years.  During that time she has completed extensive training and obtained her implant fellowship.  She is also licensed through D.O.CS. to perform oral conscious sedation, allowing her to offer quality care to many patients who may otherwise go untreated due to anxiety or time restraints. 

Feeling truly blessed for being able to work in such a challenging and fulfilling field, she also knows the importance of giving.  Along with local charitable donations, Dr. Akbar has been featured in Time Magazine for her generous contribution to The Dream Foundation, when she helped a local woman restore her teeth, which had been ravaged by years of chemotherapy and radiation.  She has also extended a hand to the Give Back A Smile program that offers dental care to survivors of domestic violence.
