Detailed Introduction

The practice specializes in periodontics, which involves the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, as well as the placement and maintenance of dental implants. Their services are designed to address a wide range of periodontal needs, from early-stage gingivitis to more advanced periodontitis and tooth loss. The clinic emphasizes a patient-centric approach, striving to provide quality care in a comfortable and friendly environment. They leverage advanced technologies such as laser surgery (e.g., LANAP, as seen in some periodontics practices), digital radiography, and CT scanning to ensure precise diagnoses and effective treatments. This modern equipment allows for less invasive procedures and potentially quicker recovery times for patients. Key services offered by High Point Periodontics include: Dental Implants: Placement and restoration of dental implants, a durable and natural-looking solution for missing teeth. Periodontal (Gum) Surgery: Procedures to treat advanced gum disease, which may include addressing deep pockets, regenerating bone, and gum grafting for receding gums. Laser Surgery: A less invasive alternative to traditional gum surgery for treating periodontal disease. Soft Tissue Surgery: Addressing various soft tissue concerns in the mouth. Bone Grafting: Procedures to rebuild bone structure that may have been lost due to gum disease or tooth loss, essential for successful implant placement. Sinus Augmentation: A specific type of bone grafting for the upper jaw to create sufficient bone for dental implants. Dental Cleanings: Specialized cleanings for patients with periodontal disease, often referred to as scaling and root planing or "deep cleanings," to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria from below the gum line. Dental CT Scanning: For precise imaging and planning of complex procedures like dental implant placement. High Point Periodontics focuses on educating patients about their oral health and tailoring treatment plans to individual needs. Patients often praise the clinic for its professional and friendly staff, comfortable environment, and effective results. The clinic aims to improve not just patients' smiles but also their overall health, recognizing the link between oral health and systemic well-being.

I've always been terrified of dental procedures, but my recent visit to Dr. Wu's office has completely changed my perspective on dental care. Not only did Dr. Wu provide top-notch dental services, but his approach made me feel genuinely at ease from the moment I walked in. Comfort: Dr. Wu has an incredible way of making you feel comfortable. His calm demeanor and patient explanation of every step of the procedure alleviated my anxiety. He took the time to ensure I understood everything, making what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something manageable.

Education: Beyond just performing dental work, Dr. Wu took it upon himself to educate me about oral health. His detailed explanations about my condition and the importance of various treatments were both informative and reassuring. Staff: The entire staff at Dr. Wu's office deserves a round of applause. They are not just professionals; they are caring individuals who go out of their way to make you feel welcomed and cared for. Their kindness adds a personal touch that is rare to find in medical settings. Recommendation: For anyone out there with a fear of dental work, I cannot recommend Dr.

Wu and his team enough. They transform what can be a stressful visit into one of the most positive experiences one could hope for in dental care. Dr. Wu and his team, thank you for your exceptional care and for turning my dental phobia into a manageable concern. Your office is a haven for those of us who dread dental visits. If you're looking for compassionate, expert dental care in a welcoming environment, look no further than Dr. Wu's office.

Dr. Wu and Carrie were awesome during my procedures - the height of professionalism, skill and compassion. Dr. Wu explained everything carefully and took the time to answer my questions fully. I was nervous about the laser surgery, but it went great and there was virtually no pain after the anesthesia wore off. I highly recommend this practice!
