Pediatric dentistry is a highly specialized field in the treatment and prevention of dental disease, as well as the overall oral health of children.

Through years of schooling, training, and experience, a pediatric dentist is uniquely qualified to treat the dental needs of infants, children, adolescents, and those with special needs.

Dr. Eberhardt is  one of the only practicing dual specialists in Georgia. You come to one office, one dentist for all dental and orthodontic care.
