Parris Shannon Mel DDS

The quiet stretch of Wisteria Drive in Snellville isn’t exactly a dental hub, but it’s home to Parris Shannon Mel DDS, a practice tucked into the third floor of 2220 Wisteria Dr SW. Dentists in this part of Gwinnett County tend to keep a low profile, catering mostly to locals who prefer routine care without the frills. This one follows that pattern—no flashy signage, no grand claims, just the basics of general dentistry handled without fanfare.

The suite number—300—hints at its placement in what’s likely a professional building, the kind where you’d also find accountants or insurance agents. Snellville’s suburban sprawl means offices like this are often sandwiched between strip malls and residential pockets, serving neighborhoods where a 15-minute drive is still considered "close by." For anyone mapping out errands near Stone Mountain or Graysons, the location splits the difference neatly.

Google’s current snapshot shows a perfect 5.0-star rating, though it’s based on a single review—hardly a consensus, but not uncommon for smaller practices that rely on word-of-mouth. The phone line, (678) 836-2107, is the only point of contact listed, which keeps things simple: no online booking portals, no social media campaigns, just a direct line for appointments or questions about fillings, cleanings, or the occasional crown.

Directions are straightforward via Google’s map pin—though anyone familiar with the area knows to watch for the turnoff near the old Kroger plaza. It’s the kind of place you’d only notice if you were specifically looking for it, which, in a way, is the point.
