Dr. Afsaneh Hamzehpour

DMD — General Dentist

With 31 years of experience, Dr. Afsaneh Hamzehpour is one of the most seasoned general dentists at Smiles for Kids. Born in Iran and trained at the University of Louisville, Dr. Hamzehpour has built her entire practice philosophy around never prioritizing speed or profit over what’s genuinely best for a child. Families across Cumming, Peachtree Corners, and Greater Atlanta trust her decades of experience, her plainspoken honesty, and her ability to put even nervous kids at ease.

Dr. Hamzehpour was born and raised in Iran before coming to the United States to pursue dentistry. She completed both her dental education and residency training at the University of Louisville, laying the foundation for what has become a three-decade career in general dentistry.

In the 31 years since, Dr. Hamzehpour has treated thousands of children and families, drawn to the profession by the chance to help patients in pain and give them the confidence that comes with a healthy smile. That original motivation hasn’t faded — it’s what still gets her excited to come to work, and it shows in how much she genuinely enjoys getting to know each family she treats.

Dr. Hamzehpour’s approach to care is built on one non-negotiable principle: she will never recommend a treatment based on what’s fastest or most profitable — only what’s truly in her patient’s best interest. She takes the time to explain every option in plain language, not complex medical terms, so families can make decisions they feel confident about. With anxious young patients, she focuses first on building trust before any treatment begins.

Outside the practice, Dr. Hamzehpour is a mother of two sons — her oldest is a graduated engineer, and her youngest is finishing his degree in finance. She stays active with regular workouts and Zumba classes, and she’s an avid swimmer and dancer who believes strongly in the power of laughter. As she puts it: if you’re not smiling or laughing, you’re doing something wrong.
