History
Established in 1978.
Dr. Michael Szikman moved from Canada to Atlanta in the late 1970’s and took over an existing Cobb County dental practice. Beginning with two front office staff, one chairside assistant and one dental hygienist, Dr. Szikman began growing his practice. His twin sons chose to follow in his footsteps and graduated dental school in 1998. To accommodate the new doctors and accompanying staff, the office relocated to larger space above the Bank of America Building on Windy Hill Road. Dr. Stewart Szikman joined his wife’s dental practice in 2006, and Dr. Richard Szikman continues to work alongside his father at the Szikman Dental Group. The practice now has 15 staff members, including four front office staff, four chairside assistants, and four full-time dental hygienists.
