Convenient Access from Greensboro
From the southwest side of Greensboro, Jonathan Hunt DDS is about 19 minutes away by US 29, in downtown High Point. People comparing options for a dentist in Greensboro, NC, sometimes overlook that a one-doctor office this close can make crowns in a single visit, place implants and offer complimentary consultations to new patients. The office opens at 8:00 AM Monday through Thursday.
A practical starting point is the Hemphill Branch Library at 2301 West Vandalia Road. Head west on Vandalia Road, which becomes Wiley Davis Road, then take Groometown Road to the I-85 and US 29 ramp. Stay with US 29 south toward High Point for about 7 miles and take the exit for South Main Street and downtown.
Follow South Main Street into downtown High Point, turn onto West Green Drive, and then follow South Lindsay Street to 404 Lindsay St B, High Point, NC 27262. That run is roughly 12.7 miles with no tolls. If you start downtown near City Hall on West Washington Street instead, the trip by Freeman Mill Road, US 220 and US 29 grows to about 17.6 miles and 25 minutes.
The office stands across from Truist Point Stadium, between Gatewood Avenue and Westwood Avenue, a few blocks south of the High Point Public Library. Load our Google Maps pin before you leave. Nearby Adams Farm and Sedgefield, two neighborhoods on Greensboro's southwest side, have their own pages with directions.
Why Some Greensboro Patients Drive to High Point
Choosing a dentist outside your own city should come with a good reason. For many patients it comes down to seeing the same dentist at every visit. At this practice, Dr. Hunt handles every exam and treatment plan himself, and the small team learns your name rather than your chart number.
Efficiency is the second reason. CEREC designs, mills and places a permanent ceramic crown in the office, often in about one to two hours, so many crowns do not cost you two trips down US 29. Select crowns and bridges are 3D-printed on site with a SprintRay printer, and digital impressions from the Primescan scanner replace trays of impression putty.
The third is cost clarity for new patients. Uninsured newcomers can start with the $159 Cleaning, Exam & X-Ray (for patients without periodontal disease) or the $49 Emergency Exam & X-Ray. Implant and CandidPro® consultations are complimentary for new patients.
Comfort options round out the picture. Oral conscious sedation is a pill taken before the visit; you stay awake and responsive, and someone else drives you home afterward. For older family members missing a tooth or two, Dr. Hunt places dental implants in the office and maps each one with CBCT 3D imaging first.
Dental Priorities for a College Town Like Greensboro
Founded in 1808 as the seat of Guilford County and named for General Nathanael Greene, Greensboro has grown to nearly 300,000 residents, the third-largest city in North Carolina. Students fill campuses at UNC Greensboro, North Carolina A&T State University, Guilford College, Greensboro College and Bennett College. That means a large share of young adults balancing classes, first jobs and tight budgets.
Young adults often face the same handful of dental questions. Wisdom teeth may be crowding in or stuck below the gum, older fillings from childhood begin to wear, and many people wish they had straightened their teeth as teenagers. Each of those is easier to address with one dentist who keeps an eye on changes over time.
For impacted or partly erupted teeth, CBCT cone beam 3D imaging shows exactly where a tooth sits before any decision is made. Dr. Hunt performs extractions in the office, and nitrous oxide is available to help nervous patients relax. For crooked teeth, CandidPro® aligners are removable and nearly clear, and our comparison of clear aligners vs. traditional braces lays out the differences.
Weekends in the city might mean the Greensboro Science Center, with its aquarium and zoo, or a walk at Guilford Courthouse National Military Park. During the week, the City of Greensboro website is the place to look up city services and parks.
Services Worth the Drive When Choosing a Dentist in Greensboro, NC
Tooth Extractions
Problem teeth, including wisdom teeth, are evaluated with 3D imaging and removed in the office when needed. Students can schedule around a class calendar with an early morning slot.
CandidPro® Clear Aligners
Clear, removable trays shift teeth gradually without brackets. Young professionals like that they come out for meals, presentations and photos.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Whitening and bonding can often be completed in a single visit, a quick lift before a job interview or graduation.
Emergency Dentistry
A broken tooth or sudden swelling gets same-day appointments whenever possible. It is reassuring backup when you are far from a hometown dentist.
Same-Day Crowns
A cracked molar can be capped with a permanent ceramic crown in one visit. CEREC eliminates the temporary crown and the follow-up drive.
Meet Dr. Jonathan Hunt
When he is away from the office, Dr. Jonathan Hunt loves to travel. In the chair, he works with hygienist Abbie Neal, RDH, who trained at Guilford Technical Community College and has worked as a hygienist since 2024.
Insurance & Financing
Paying is straightforward: cash, personal checks and most major credit cards are accepted. When treatment costs more than you want to pay at once, Sunbit lets you pay over 3, 6 or 12 months after a soft credit check, and Proceed Finance offers loan options. The team also files out-of-network claims for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Jonathan Hunt DDS from Greensboro, and how do I get there?
From the Hemphill Branch Library in southwest Greensboro, the office is about 12.7 miles away, roughly 19 minutes. You take Vandalia Road and Groometown Road to US 29, then exit at South Main Street into downtown High Point. A patient looking for a dentist in Greensboro, NC, should allow about 25 minutes from downtown near City Hall.
Which dental insurance plans are you in network with?
The practice is in network with Ameritas, Best Life and Health Insurance Company, Delta Dental Premier, Dominion National, GEHA, Guardian, Humana, Lincoln Financial, MetLife, United Concordia and United Healthcare, plus several others. If your plan is not on that list, the team will still file an out-of-network claim on your behalf.
Can I get a cleaning if I haven't seen a dentist in years?
Yes, and adults returning after a long break are welcome. The first visit focuses on where things stand today, with a cleaning, an exam and x-rays. If gum disease has developed, Dr. Hunt will recommend the care your gums need first. Oral conscious sedation is available if nerves are part of what kept you away.
Can you check a wisdom tooth that hasn't come in?
Yes. CBCT cone beam 3D imaging lets Dr. Hunt see where an impacted tooth sits in relation to the bone and nearby structures. From there he can recommend whether it should be watched or removed, and extractions are performed in the office. The right plan depends on what the exam and images show.
Can a filling wait until my next school break?
It is better not to wait long. A cavity keeps growing, and one small enough for a filling now can reach the nerve by the time a break comes around, which can mean a root canal and a crown instead. Early appointments from 8:00 AM Monday through Thursday make it easier to fit treatment between classes.
