Situated at 3280 Howell Mill Road NW, West Wing, Suite 331, Atlanta, GA 30327, Dental Specialists of Buckhead provides periodontal and endodontic care to patients in the Buckhead neighborhood and surrounding Atlanta metro communities. The practice was formerly known as Buckhead Periodontics and operates under the leadership of Dr. Laura D. Braswell, DDS, who focuses on periodontal services, alongside Dr. Mark A. Barr, DDS, a specialist in endodontics and root canal therapy. The office is reachable by phone at (404) 261-9593 and by fax at (404) 261-9409.
A notable technology investment at the practice is its use of three distinct types of dental lasers, equipment deployed specifically to minimize patient discomfort during procedures. Both providers maintain active continuing education commitments to stay current with advances in dental technology and treatment methodology. Infection control protocols follow guidelines published by the CDC, OSHA, the Georgia Department of Health, and HHS, reflecting a rigorous approach to patient safety and practice hygiene standards across all clinical procedures.
Services span the full range of periodontal care, endodontic procedures, and related surgical treatments. New patients receive a thorough initial examination followed by a comprehensive review of all treatment options, allowing patients to make fully informed decisions about their care pathway. The practice describes its environment as family-oriented, citing long-standing staff relationships and a commitment to treating each patient as part of the practice family, a characteristic the providers identify as central to their clinical culture.
Clinical goals include achieving optimal outcomes with particular attention to cosmetic results, balancing clinical performance with aesthetics across both periodontal and endodontic procedures. Periodontal conditions addressed may include gum disease at various stages, bone loss, and related soft tissue problems, while endodontic services center on saving teeth through root canal treatment and associated procedures. The practice serves as a specialist referral destination for general dentists and patients across Atlanta and the broader Buckhead and northwest Atlanta communities, offering focused periodontal and endodontic expertise in a dedicated specialty environment rather than a general dental office.
