Case Description
I am TERRIFIED of dental procedures and I'm 50 years old! I have nitrous to get my teeth cleaned. I had a tooth crowned about 3 years back and it was a serious trauma for me! My regular dentist says I need a root canal on that crowned tooth! I have no pain at all. He has estimated the cost at about $1200. I really do not want to go thru a root canal unless it is imperative that I get one. I would like a second opinion, that of an endodontist. Who can you recommend?

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Dear patient Dr Ron Wright would be who I would have do a root canal on myself if I needed one. He is very kind and takes his time to do it right. His # is331-4750. Sincerely Dr Alan Laurain
