Straightening Smiles, Aligning Family Values

Dr. Alena Lotz's family-first approach revolutionizes smiles at Evergreen Orthodontics

Dr. Alena Lotz of Evergreen Orthodontics is redefining modern orthodontics. As a board-certified professional and mother of two, she blends cutting-edge technology with a warm, family-oriented approach. Motherhood has profoundly impacted Dr. Lotz's professional life, making her more focused on providing high-quality, efficient care. Understanding the value of time for busy families, she has invested in the latest orthodontic technologies, including custom braces, appliances, and Invisalign Clear Aligners, which streamline treatment while maintaining excellent results.

Dr. Lotz's commitment to conservative treatment planning stems from her maternal instinct. She approaches each case with the same care she would give her own family, recommending only necessary treatments. This patient-first philosophy has become a cornerstone of Evergreen Orthodontics' practice. The success of Dr. Lotz's practice is not a solo effort. She credits her "rockstar" team for ensuring efficient operations and maintaining a positive atmosphere. This supportive environment extends to her home life, where she has built a strong support system that allows her to pursue her professional aspirations while balancing family responsibilities.

Creating a welcoming environment for patients of all ages is one of Dr. Lotz's primary goals. She has designed her office to feel more like a living room than a traditional dental office, fostering a clean, modern, and inviting space. The practice is known for its positive and fun atmosphere, complete with great music. Patients often express how much they enjoy their visits and even miss the office after their treatment concludes.

Dr. Lotz's experience as a mother has enhanced her ability to connect with younger patients and their families. She invites parents to accompany their children during appointments, understanding the importance of transparency and trust in pediatric care. This open-door policy allows parents to witness firsthand the care their children receive, alleviating concerns and fostering a sense of community within the practice.

Embracing technology is another way Dr. Lotz caters to modern families. Evergreen Orthodontics offers online scheduling, digital intake forms, and text communication, recognizing the value of convenience for busy parents. Clinically, the practice utilizes intraoral scanners, eliminating the need for uncomfortable impressions and further enhancing patient comfort.

Beyond her practice, Dr. Lotz is deeply committed to community involvement. Evergreen Orthodontics actively participates in local initiatives, supporting organizations such as The Giving Garden, local schools, and The Girl Scouts. Dr. Lotz sees these interactions as opportunities to give back to the community that has supported her practice. Her passion for orthodontics extends to advocacy for her profession. She is actively involved with the Georgia Dental Association and the American Association of Orthodontics, working to ensure the highest standards of care for patients across the country.

Dr. Alena Lotz stands out as a shining example of how professional excellence and personal values can harmoniously coexist. As Smyrna and Vinings residents seek orthodontic care, they find that Dr. Lotz is not just a skilled practitioner, but a caring professional who understands the delicate balance of family life and healthcare needs. Her commitment to her patients, her profession, and her community makes Evergreen Orthodontics a standout practice in the area, offering a unique blend of advanced technology and heartfelt service.
