A west Cobb family practice handling cleanings, cosmetic work, implants, and emergencies for residents from Powder Springs to Lost Mountain to Hiram.
West Cobb is large. From Powder Springs to Hiram to Lost Mountain to Mableton itself, the search 'family dentist in west Cobb' covers a lot of ground. This page is here to help you figure out whether driving to our Mableton office on Floyd Rd makes sense for your household. The short version: if you are in Mableton, Austell, Clarkdale, Powder Springs, southern Smyrna, or anywhere along the Silver Comet Trail corridor, yes. If you are in north Kennesaw or far northwestern Cobb, probably not. Drive times below.
Vibrant Smiles: One Practice for Multiple West Cobb Communities
Vibrant Smiles Family & Cosmetic Dentistry is run by Dr. Chea Rainford, who has practiced dentistry in Georgia for more than 15 years. He handles general, family, cosmetic, restorative, and implant dentistry in one office, which matters when the alternative is driving across the county to a specialist after each general visit.

Meet Dr. Chea Rainford
Dr. Rainford treats patients of every age and handles cases that many practices send out: root canals, implants, full-mouth restorations, sedation cases. He completed dental school at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta, followed by post-graduate training in prosthodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, and endodontics, plus a fellowship with the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. That breadth is the reason west Cobb patients drive past several closer practices to reach this one: cleanings, implants, root canals, and cosmetic work all happen under the same provider.
A look at his training and credentials:
- DMD, Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry (Augusta, GA)
- BS Chemistry, University of West Georgia
- Post-graduate training in prosthodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, and endodontics
- More than 15 years practicing dentistry in Georgia
- Fellow, International Congress of Oral Implantologists (FICOI)
- Member, American Dental Association (ADA)
- Member, Georgia Dental Association (GDA)
- Member, North Georgia Dental Society
- Member, Academy of General Dentistry
- Member, Hinman Dental Society
- Member, American Academy of Facial Esthetics
- Lifetime member, American Orthodontic Society
- Lifetime member, Medical College of Georgia Alumni Association
- Licensed dentist, State of Georgia; BLS certified
Outside the office, Dr. Rainford lives in the area with his wife and young daughter, is active in his local church, and volunteers with several charities. He is a longtime Falcons and Braves fan and plays soccer and cricket from his school days. West Cobb patients who drive from Powder Springs, Hiram, or Lost Mountain tend to come for the consolidation: one practice, one provider, one set of records across the full family.

Insurance, Financing, and the Friends & Family Membership
Three ways to pay for your family's dental care, so the right fit exists whether you have PPO coverage, no insurance, or a treatment plan that runs into thousands.
In-Network with Most Major PPO Plans
Vibrant Smiles is in-network with most major PPO dental plans and files claims directly on your behalf. For many patients, that means a healthy-mouth cleaning visit costs $0 out of pocket. Call (678) 810-1100 with your card before your first visit for a complimentary benefits check so you know what is covered and what your share of cost will be.
Friends & Family Membership Plan (No Insurance Needed)
If you do not have dental insurance, the Friends & Family Membership Plan is built for you. It runs for 12 months from the date you join and includes:
- Cleanings, exams, and routine x-rays at no additional cost
- Exclusive savings on procedures such as fillings
- Benefits that start immediately
- No deductibles, no waiting periods, no annual maximums, no claim denials, no pre-approvals
West Cobb families on the plan often use it to consolidate dental costs for the household, especially when one parent has PPO coverage and another does not. Call (678) 810-1100 for current membership rates.
CareCredit Healthcare Financing
For larger treatment plans (full-mouth restorations, multiple implants, full smile makeovers), CareCredit lets you spread the cost over fixed monthly payments. Interest-free promotional terms are available, subject to approval. The front desk handles the CareCredit application and walks you through what your monthly cost will be before any work begins.
Out-of-Pocket Payments
We accept cash, debit cards, and all major credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.

Frequently Asked Questions from West Cobb Patients
Why drive to Mableton when there are dentists closer to me?
For routine cleanings alone, the calculus is fair: a closer office may save time. The reason west Cobb households drive to us is the consolidation. One practice handles family cleanings, cosmetic work, implants, root canals, and emergencies, which means one set of records, one billing relationship, and one provider who knows your case across years.
Do you accept my insurance?
We are in-network with most major PPO plans. Call (678) 810-1100 with your card and the front desk will verify benefits.
Do you have evening or weekend hours?
Wednesdays we are open until 7 p.m., the most-requested slot for west Cobb commuters. Mondays and Thursdays until 5:30, Tuesdays until 5.
How do same-day emergencies work?
Same-day slots are reserved for emergencies. Call (678) 810-1100 as early in the day as you can. For nights and weekends, voicemail provides next-step instructions.
Can the whole family come on one trip?
Yes. Tell the front desk who is coming and they will block back-to-back appointments. For west Cobb families driving twenty minutes each way, one trip per quarter is the goal.

Call (678) 810-1100, tell the front desk where you live and what you need, and we will tell you whether the drive makes sense for your situation. If it does, your appointment will be on the calendar within minutes.
