Office
History
Our office was established in 1959 by Dr. Robert S. Stallings,
one of the first dental offices in the Sandy Springs area
of metro Atlanta. Dr. Stallings was a pilot in the Navy,
before attending dental school at Emory University in
Atlanta. His interests included deep sea fishing and photography.
The original office was on Hilderbrand Dr., later moving
to the Sandy Springs Professional Building. We have been
in the Corporate Campus on Hammond Drive near Perimeter
Mall since 1998.
Dr. Stallings practiced for 35 years before
retiring to Fripp Island, South Carolina in 1994. Dr.
Michael Dent briefly worked in the office until Dr. Boyd
arrived in 1998, inheriting a long established family
oriented practice. Today we proudly continue to serve
the families of our original patients whose members now
span four generations.
