Our Orthodontists in Alpharetta – Windward
James J. Awbrey, an Atlanta native and for over 26 years, has been creating healthy smiles and bettering the lives of his patients.
Awbrey graduated from Dunwoody High School in the Atlanta metro in the top five percent of his class. He then went on to attend Auburn University as an undergraduate and received a bachelor’s degree in chemistry graduating Summa Cum Laude. While attending the University of Alabama School of Medicine, Awbrey discovered his passion for dentistry, inspired by his father, a pediatric dentist, and transferred to the UAB School of Dentistry a year later. He earned his doctorate graduating as the Valedictorian of his class. Awbrey then completed his orthodontic residency at Louisiana State University School of Dentistry in New Orleans and received his specialty degree.
Awbrey is a proud member of the American Association of Orthodontics, American Dental Association, and Southern Association of Orthodontics, among other organizations. In 2001, he completed the requirements to become certified by the American Board of Orthodontists, an achievement a select number of Orthodontists in the United States achieve. In addition, Awbrey continues his studies with over 100 continuing education hours each year.
Awbrey believes the most rewarding part of his job is, “watching a happy patient light up with a beautiful smile we have created. There is nothing more gratifying, and that’s a reward I have never taken for granted.”
"Super nice staff. Very professional. They always take the time to answer questions. I'm also very happy with the work they are doing on my "smile"."

“We were referred to Dr. James J. Awbrey IV, DMD by our trusted dentist. We knew it may be preemptive but did not want to miss the best treatment window for our daughter. The level of professionalism with this office is unmatched. Our interactions with this office have been fantastic. The staff is friendly and patient with younger children. The treatment coordinator, Kayla Brabham, is wonderful. She is patient, thoroughly explains treatment options, and partners with the doctor to explain the necessity for each step. Our family is very thankful for the attentive care which started our first visit. Prior to our visit with Dr. Awbrey, our daughter had been seeing an ENT due to some hearing issues we were not able to identify the cause of. When reviewing her first visit x-rays completed by the Smile Doctor’s office, Dr. Awbrey identified concerns with our daughter’s adenoids and airway. He asked if she had any other issues with snoring, hearing, and sleep. He was correct! We requested a reference for a different ENT, as our current one had not identified this issue. As a result, our daughter has since had these items corrected, is sleeping well, and no longer has any hearing challenges! Our family is grateful for Dr. Awbrey and the level of care provided even prior to putting on braces. This office truly cares about their patients and their overall health. We look forward to our daughter having her orthodontia treatments done by Dr. Awbrey and the staff at this office!”
“There is so much to say about this practice, just know I am beyond happy with making the decision to come here. Everyone is so friendly and professional. I usually do not leave reviews, just to lazy to, but the staff goes above and beyond for you here. I feel like I am more than just a number in the chair at this practice! The doctor is very nice and down to earth as well.”
