Inman Park Dentistry Staff
Doctors
Alex Rodriguez DMD
Owner
"I have a passion for working with my hands and a desire to create, which is why I became a dentist. When I'm not busy doing dentistry, I am a daily bicycle commuter and part-time artist. For ten years I lived in the nearby Reynoldstown neighborhood, but as my family outgrew that house, I now live in Ormewood Park with my wife, two kids, and two dogs.
Megan Butler DMD
Associate
Dr. Butler grew up in Alabama, and attended dental school in Boston. She and her husband live in the nearby Druid Hills neighborhood of Atlanta.
"As a child, I remember always asking my parents for various Arts and Crafts kits for my birthday: clay sculptures, jewelry making, water color sets etc. As I grew older, that desire to create has stayed with me, so dentistry was an obvious fit for me."
Administrative Staff
Bridgett Newell
Manager
I have held various positions in dentistry since 2010, working as a Dental Assistant, Patient Coordinator, and now Office Manager. My clinical and administrative backgrounds have been useful in performing my duties. It is my pleasure to connect with patients on a deeper level - helping and caring for them.
I'm a native of Atlanta. In my leisure time, I enjoy traveling, watching movies, and spending time with my family.

Clinical Staff
Nakoma Mani
Hygienist
My goal is to help our patients achieve the best oral hygiene on a continual basis. I take great pride in my work and patient care, and enjoy seeing patients smile.
I came here from Sierra Leone in 1990 and Georgia has been "on my mind” ever since I graduated from Georgia Southwestern University with a degree in Sociology. I have one young daughter.
Sarah Green
Hygienist
I have a B.S. in Dental Hygiene from Clayton State University and thoroughly enjoy taking care of my patients.
My goal is to ensure every patient enjoys their visit and looks forward to seeing us! I strive to provide an experience that is comfortable, relaxing, and leaves you feeling renewed.
During my off time I like to stay active at my kickboxing gym, cycling, roller-blading, visiting new places with my partner and loving on my pets Lola, Leon, and Sophia. Can't wait to see your smile!
Sharonia Rowe
Hygienist
I've worked here for nearly 15 years (except for a couple of years around the pandemic). But I need to give Dr. Rodriguez some updated biographical information and a new headshot for this page. I bet he is so sad about it.
Sepideh Samimi
Dental Assistant
I have a passion for working with others and offering gentle, skillful care. I immigrated from Iran in 2000 to California where I earned my dental assistance degree from ROP in San Juan Capistrano. I then moved to Georgia in 2007 and sought my Expanded-Duties degree from Georgia Gwinnett College. I have experience in both private and corporate offices, offering high quality treatment for 20 years.
During my free time I enjoy going on hikes, trying out food places with my daughter, and traveling.
Shelle Banks
Dental Assistant
After graduating from dental assisting school in 2015, I remember nervously driving to my first interview thinking, "how I will sell myself?" But I thought, just be yourself!
Our smiles tell a lot, but they can also hide a lot. I take pride in connecting with each of my patients, and it is extremely gratifying for me to literally be at their side as they reach goals along their dental health journey.
Otherwise, I enjoy spending quality time with my teenage son, traveling, & especially eating!
Joanna Creason
Dental Assistant
I graduated from UGA with a major in Biology & minor in Public Health. My background in dental lab work & chair-side assisting gives me a unique perspective on dentistry, and I'm applying to dental school to pursue a long-term career in the field.
I am passionate about combining my knowledge of biology with hands-on patient care to improve oral health and make a positive impact on my community.
In my free time, I enjoy walking the BeltLine, going to concerts, & trying out new Atlanta restaurants!
