There is something deeply meaningful about building a life in a community you love. It means knowing your neighbors by name, choosing local businesses over faceless chains, and taking pride in the place you call home. For the team at A Plus Dentistry, that community is Cumming, Georgia — a city that has captured the hearts of everyone fortunate enough to plant roots here. Located at 5920 Parkway North Blvd, Suite 100, Cumming, GA 30040, A Plus Dentistry is not simply a dental practice that happens to occupy space in Forsyth County. It is a deeply rooted, community-invested practice that has spent more than a decade earning the trust of the families, professionals, and individuals who make this corner of North Georgia such a remarkable place to live.
The relationship between a dental practice and its community is unlike almost any other in healthcare. People share their most vulnerable moments in a dental chair — their anxieties, their insecurities about their smiles, their concerns about cost and time and pain. When a practice truly understands the community it serves — its values, its rhythms, its aspirations — it is better positioned to provide care that goes beyond the clinical and into the genuinely personal. At A Plus Dentistry, that understanding did not happen overnight. It was built over years of showing up, listening, treating patients like family, and earning the kind of word-of-mouth reputation that no advertisement can replicate. This page is a celebration of that relationship — a reflection on what makes Cumming, Georgia such a special place, and why the people who call it home deserve nothing less than the very best in dental care.
To understand what makes Cumming so special today, it helps to appreciate the rich history that shaped it. Forsyth County was established in 1832, named after Georgia Governor and U.S. Secretary of State John Forsyth, and the town of Cumming was incorporated as the county seat just a few years later. In its earliest days, the area was a frontier settlement — hardworking, rugged, and defined by the determination of the people who chose to build their lives in the North Georgia foothills. That spirit of industriousness and resilience never really left. It simply evolved, generation by generation, into the thriving, forward-looking community that Forsyth County is today.
For much of the twentieth century, Cumming retained its character as a quiet, agricultural small town — the kind of place where everyone knew everyone, where the pace of life was unhurried, and where community ties ran deep. Then, beginning in the 1990s and accelerating dramatically through the 2000s and 2010s, something remarkable happened. Forsyth County began to grow — and not just grow, but explode with new residents, new businesses, new schools, and new energy. Drawn by the combination of outstanding public schools, proximity to Atlanta via the GA-400 corridor, stunning natural surroundings, and the intangible but unmistakable sense of community that the area exudes, families from across Georgia and well beyond began choosing Cumming as their home. Today, Forsyth County consistently ranks among the fastest-growing counties in the United States and among the highest in quality of life, and the city of Cumming sits at the beating heart of it all.
Part of what makes life in Cumming so exceptional is the extraordinary natural landscape that surrounds it. Lake Sidney Lanier — the massive 38,000-acre reservoir created by the damming of the Chattahoochee River in the 1950s — forms a stunning natural border to the east and south of the county, offering residents unparalleled access to boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, and waterside dining and recreation. On summer weekends, the shores and marinas of Lake Lanier come alive with the laughter of families making memories, and in the quieter seasons, the lake takes on a serene, almost meditative beauty that reminds residents why they chose this place above all others.
To the north and west, Sawnee Mountain Preserve offers miles of hiking trails through hardwood forests, dramatic rocky outcroppings, and sweeping views of the surrounding foothills that have become a beloved destination for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages and abilities. The preserve is one of those rare public spaces that feels genuinely wild and restorative — a place to disconnect from the noise of daily life and reconnect with the natural world. For the families and individuals who make up the patient community at A Plus Dentistry, these natural resources are not mere amenities. They are part of the identity of life in Cumming — a constant reminder that beauty, health, and community are deeply intertwined.
Cumming has evolved into a destination for more than just outdoor recreation. The Cumming City Center has emerged as a vibrant hub of dining, shopping, entertainment, and community gathering that reflects the sophisticated tastes and genuine warmth of the people who live here. Local boutiques offer thoughtfully curated collections of clothing, home goods, and gifts that stand in refreshing contrast to the homogeneity of big-box retail. Artisan food vendors, craft coffee shops, and award-worthy restaurants line the streets of the City Center, serving everything from Southern comfort food made with locally sourced ingredients to international cuisine crafted by chefs who chose Cumming because they, too, recognized something special here.
The Cumming Farmers Market has become a beloved weekend institution — a place where local growers, bakers, and craftspeople connect directly with the community they feed and serve, and where neighbors run into neighbors and linger in conversation long after their bags are full. Community events, outdoor concerts, and seasonal festivals bring the streets of Cumming alive throughout the year, reinforcing the sense that this is a place where people genuinely care about one another and take pride in the community they share. It is precisely this culture of quality, connection, and community pride that A Plus Dentistry was built to reflect and serve.
The people of Cumming are deliberate and discerning in the choices they make. They research the best schools for their children, seek out the most skilled contractors for their homes, and choose their healthcare providers with the same intentionality. When it comes to dental care, the residents of Forsyth County are no different — they want a practice that reflects the same commitment to excellence, warmth, and community investment that they bring to every other area of their lives. They are not looking for the cheapest option or the most convenient address. They are looking for a dental home they can trust, return to year after year, and recommend to everyone they know without hesitation.
That is the standard A Plus Dentistry holds itself to every single day. Dr. Jinoos Farhang-Fallah, who has earned the America's Top Dentist award every year since 2013, and Dr. Behzad Aliassa, whose patient-first philosophy and clinical expertise span orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry, and endodontics, lead a team that approaches every appointment with the same level of care and dedication — whether the patient is coming in for a routine cleaning or a complete smile transformation. The philosophy at A Plus Dentistry is simple: every patient deserves the best, and the best is what this team delivers.
The active, outdoor-oriented lifestyle that defines life in Cumming has a direct and meaningful relationship with oral health. The families who spend weekends hiking Sawnee Mountain, paddling on Lake Lanier, and playing youth sports throughout Forsyth County understand the importance of overall physical wellness — and dental health is an inseparable part of that picture. Research has firmly established the connection between oral health and systemic health conditions including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory illness, and complications during pregnancy. A healthy mouth is not just about a beautiful smile — it is a foundational pillar of full-body health and vitality.
The active, health-conscious families of Cumming also face specific dental health considerations worth understanding. Sports-related dental injuries are among the most common causes of tooth damage in children and adolescents, making custom sports mouthguards an essential — and often overlooked — piece of protective equipment for young athletes in Forsyth County's thriving youth sports programs. The region's water quality, the dietary habits of its residents, and the stresses of busy professional and family life all contribute to the particular oral health landscape of this community. A dental practice that truly knows and serves Cumming understands these factors and provides care that is responsive to them — which is exactly what A Plus Dentistry has always done.
Forsyth County residents are long-term thinkers. They build homes they intend to stay in, invest in schools they believe in for decades, and choose businesses they trust to be there year after year. It is no surprise, then, that dental implants have become one of the most sought-after services at A Plus Dentistry. In a community that values lasting quality over quick fixes, implants represent exactly the right philosophy — a permanent, durable, natural-feeling solution to tooth loss that is designed to last a lifetime with proper care.
Unlike traditional bridges or removable dentures, dental implants replace both the visible crown and the underlying tooth root, integrating with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration that provides a stability and functionality no other tooth replacement option can match. For the active residents of Cumming — who want to eat what they love, speak with confidence, and smile without reservation — implants deliver a quality of life that is simply unmatched. A Plus Dentistry offers single tooth implants, implant-supported bridges, All-on-4 and All-on-6 solutions for full arch replacement, and comprehensive full mouth reconstruction for patients whose dental needs are extensive and complex. The practice approaches every implant case with meticulous planning, advanced imaging technology, and the surgical precision that such a life-changing procedure deserves.
Life in Cumming moves quickly. Parents are managing careers, school schedules, extracurricular activities, and all the beautiful chaos of family life. Professionals are building businesses, navigating demanding careers, and showing up to meetings and events where first impressions matter. For these patients — the heart of the A Plus Dentistry community — Invisalign is not just a cosmetic treatment. It is a practical, lifestyle-respecting path to a straighter, more confident smile that asks very little of the busy people who choose it.
The clear, removable aligners that define the Invisalign system are virtually invisible in daily life — meaning patients can attend meetings, lead presentations, cheer at their children's games, and go about every element of their lives without the self-consciousness that traditional braces can bring. The aligners are removed for eating and drinking, meaning there are no dietary restrictions and no complicated cleaning routines. Treatment times vary by case but often run from six months to two years, with progress check-ins that are efficient and unobtrusive. For the teens of Forsyth County who are building their confidence and stepping into young adulthood, Invisalign offers the same advantages — the freedom to smile through braces, not despite them. At A Plus Dentistry, the Invisalign consultation is always complimentary, giving patients everything they need to make an informed, confident decision.
Gum disease does not discriminate. It affects patients across all demographics — young and old, health-conscious and not — and because it progresses silently in its early stages, it is one of the most underdiagnosed conditions in dentistry. For the health-aware residents of Cumming who prioritize their wellness in every other area of their lives, the idea of undetected gum disease can be particularly unsettling. The good news is that with consistent preventive care and access to advanced treatment when needed, gum disease is both preventable and treatable.
A Plus Dentistry's laser periodontal therapy represents the most advanced and patient-friendly approach to treating gum disease currently available. Using precision laser technology, the treatment selectively removes diseased tissue and bacterial infection without disturbing the surrounding healthy gum tissue — resulting in dramatically less discomfort, faster healing, and superior long-term outcomes compared to traditional surgical approaches. For patients who have been putting off gum disease treatment out of fear or apprehension, laser therapy offers a genuinely reassuring alternative. The procedure is gentle enough to feel far less daunting than its description might suggest, and the results — healthier gums, a more secure foundation for the teeth, and reduced systemic health risk — are profound and lasting. Protecting the oral health of Cumming families for the long term is central to the mission of A Plus Dentistry, and laser periodontal therapy is one of the most powerful tools in that effort.
The measure of a dental practice's impact on its community is not found in the awards it hangs on the wall, impressive as those may be. It is found in the patient who has been coming in since her children were small and now brings her grandchildren. It is found in the young professional who chose A Plus Dentistry when he first moved to Forsyth County and has never considered going anywhere else. It is found in the family whose anxious child became a confident dental patient because the team at A Plus Dentistry took the time to make every visit feel safe and positive. These are the relationships that define what A Plus Dentistry is, and they are the reason this practice exists — not simply to fill cavities and straighten teeth, but to be a trusted partner in the health and confidence of the people of Cumming, Georgia for as long as they will have it.
The team at A Plus Dentistry participates in the life of the community because they are members of it. They shop at the same farmers markets, dine at the same restaurants, and root for the same teams as the patients who walk through their doors. That shared sense of place creates a kind of trust that is rare and valuable — the understanding that the people caring for your smile are not strangers, but neighbors who genuinely care about your well-being. It is a quality that cannot be manufactured or marketed. It can only be earned, one relationship at a time, over years of showing up with consistency, excellence, and heart.
Cumming is a city of families at every stage. Young couples buying their first homes, parents raising children in some of the best school districts in the state, empty nesters enjoying the fruits of decades of hard work, and retirees who chose Forsyth County for its beauty, community, and quality of life — all of them deserve a dental practice that can meet them exactly where they are. A Plus Dentistry was built to serve every one of them. The practice offers pediatric dentistry for the youngest patients, orthodontic solutions including Invisalign and traditional braces for children, teens, and adults, cosmetic services for patients who want to love their smiles at any age, and advanced restorative and implant dentistry for those facing more complex challenges.
Sedation dentistry options ensure that even the most anxious patients can receive the care they need in comfort and peace. Emergency dental care is available for the inevitable moments when life delivers an unexpected dental crisis. Flexible financing through LendingClub and Cherry, combined with acceptance of most major PPO insurance plans and all major credit cards, ensures that cost is never an insurmountable barrier to quality care. A Plus Dentistry has made every effort to be the kind of practice that Cumming deserves — one that is accessible, comprehensive, compassionate, and excellent in everything it does.

Yes, and it is one of the most important preventive services the practice offers for young athletes. Sports-related dental injuries are among the most common causes of tooth damage in children and adolescents, and a custom-fitted mouthguard provides a level of protection that over-the-counter options simply cannot match. Unlike store-bought mouthguards, which are often ill-fitting and uncomfortable enough that young athletes resist wearing them, a professionally fabricated mouthguard is precisely molded to your child's teeth and bite — offering superior protection, a comfortable fit, and the durability to hold up through an entire season of play. Whether your child plays football, basketball, soccer, lacrosse, or any other contact or collision sport, a custom mouthguard from A Plus Dentistry is an investment worth making.
