Dental Implants & Oral Surgery Near Tucker
Tucker is a straight shot across the top end of I-285 to our Dunwoody office. Dr. Chaliff sees Tucker patients for dental implants, wisdom teeth, extractions, and bone grafting.
TRAVELING FROM TUCKER
Getting to Dunwoody From Tucker
From most of Tucker, take I-285 west and get off at the Chamblee Dunwoody Road exit. Head north and turn onto Mount Vernon Road. Outside rush hour, plan on about 20 to 25 minutes.
If you live near Northlake, you can hop on I-285 right there. Afternoon traffic on the top end of I-285 heading west can be slow, so morning appointments are often the easier drive.
GOOD TO KNOW
Make Recovery Part of the Scheduling Conversation
Before you pick a surgery date, think about the days after. Most people need a ride home, someone around for the first evening, soft food in the fridge, and a couple of days off work. We will tell you what to expect for your procedure so you can plan around it.

BEFORE YOU BOOK
Questions From Tucker Patients
Is the Practice Located in Tucker?
We are in Dunwoody at 1505 Mount Vernon Road, Suite 150, about 20 to 25 minutes from Tucker by I-285.
When Can I Go Back to Work After Oral Surgery?
For a simple extraction, often the next day. For wisdom teeth or implant surgery, most people take two to three days. Dr. Chaliff will give you a better estimate at your consultation.
Do I Need Someone to Drive Me?
If you have IV sedation or general anesthesia, yes. An adult needs to drive you home and stay with you for the rest of the day.
Can I Replace a Full Arch of Teeth With Implants?
Yes. Implants can anchor a full denture so it stays in place. Dr. Chaliff will check your bone and talk through the options.
