Dr. Melina R. Gable has been practicing dentistry since 2010, serving Jackson County since 2012. As a young girl, she always wanted to be a dentist. Growing up as an army brat, she had great experiences with the military dentists and always enjoyed going for her regular checkups. Perhaps it was the treasure box reward that instilled that passion for pursuing the career.

Dr Melina graduated from Clayton State University with a Bachelor's degree in Biology. During that time she was a member of Georgia Tech’s Marching band, playing trumpet and serving as Co-Captain of the Colorguard. She completed a post bachelor's summer program at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before continuing to  earn her Masters in Biomedical Science and Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi. Her loyalty lies with the ACC.

An active member of the American Dental Association, and Georgia Dental Association, she continues her education to better serve her patients with the best materials and modern techniques. Her passion for helping others does not stop at dental.  She is an active member at Southside Church and plans to serve as a small group leader. Dr Melina’s fluency in Spanish has allowed her to plan and serve in local and international missions. She has volunteered with Team Smile, and the Georgia Baptist Mobile Mission. She has since started her own local mission "Smile Forward", to help Jackson county residents while donating all proceeds forward to help local county charities. Locally she has served on the Planning and Zoning Committee for the City of Hoschton, and volunteers at West Jackson Elementary.  She lives in Hoschton with her husband Wayne , her son Olon, and her dachshund Margo.  She spends her free time with her family at sporting events, traveling, spending time outdoors, and maintaining an active lifestyle running and occasional biking.
