Dr. Drew King, DMD, FICOI — Atlanta's top cosmetic and sedation dentist, entrepreneur, CEO, speaker, and a father who believes that the future of premium smile makeovers and anxiety-free dentistry is built on trust, precision, and an unwavering commitment to the patient experience.

A native of Syracuse, New York, Dr. Drew King's journey into dentistry began with an experience that would define his entire career. As a teenager, a traumatic dental accident introduced him to the profound impact that compassionate, skilled dental care can have on a person's life. The kindness and expertise of his dentist during that difficult time planted a seed that would grow into a lifelong calling.
After graduating from Chattahoochee High School in Alpharetta, Dr. King earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Georgia. He then pursued his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at the Dental College of Georgia at Augusta University, where he was recognized with the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry Student Award of Merit for outstanding achievement in the pursuit of excellence.
Following graduation, Dr. King was selected for the prestigious General Practice Residency Program in Augusta, Georgia, where he received extensive training in intravenous conscious sedation, dental extractions, bone grafting, dental implants, and the management of medically complex patients — a foundation that would prove essential to his vision of comprehensive, anxiety-free dentistry and exceptional smile makeovers.
Dr. King's clinical expertise extends far beyond his formal education. He has invested hundreds of hours in advanced continuing education at the world's most respected postgraduate dental institutes, including the Dawson Academy, Spear Education, and the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies. His training encompasses porcelain veneer design and placement, no-prep and minimal-prep veneer techniques, full mouth rehabilitation, complex occlusal therapy, dental implant surgery and restoration, and advanced cosmetic bonding — giving him a depth of knowledge that few general dentists possess.
This dedication to lifelong learning has earned Dr. King recognition from the most prestigious organizations in dentistry. He is a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (FICOI), a distinction awarded to dentists who demonstrate exceptional competence in implant dentistry through rigorous examination and case documentation. He is also a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), and a recipient of the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry (AAED) Student Award of Merit.

— Dr. Drew King
Dentistry is a family affair for the Kings. Dr. King is married to Dr. Megan King, a board-certified endodontist and Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics — a distinction held by only 20% of endodontic specialists in the country. Dr. Megan King leads Endodontic Excellence of Atlanta in Buckhead, where she is recognized as one of Atlanta's Top Dentists and is among the few endodontists in the city utilizing the GentleWave System for advanced root canal therapy.
Together, Drew and Megan are raising three daughters — and their beloved dog, Melo — in the Atlanta area. Between running two Buckhead dental practices and keeping up with three girls and a dog, the Kings have built a life centered on family, faith, and a shared passion for helping people feel confident in their smiles. Having called Atlanta home for over twenty years, the King family is deeply rooted in the community they serve.
Since 2000, Dr. King has been actively involved with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Light the Night Program. He is a passionate participant in the Georgia Mission of Mercy, which provides free dental care to over 2,000 low and no-income adults. He also works with Dynamic Mobile Dentistry, providing on-site dental care to nursing home residents across Georgia and Alabama.
In his spare time, Dr. King enjoys traveling, golf, basketball, and spending time with family and friends. He remains an avid sports fan of Syracuse University and the University of Georgia.
