My experience with Dr Blacher and his staff was definitely a 5 star! During and after a 2 1/2 hr root canal surgery I expected a lot of pain & swelling. I had absolutely no pain & never even had to take a Tylenol after the anesthesia wore off! He is amazing and I highly recommend his services and will definitely go back if any other oral surgery is needed.

Best experience I have ever had with dental work. Dr. Blacher and his staff were very professional and easy to work with. I was nervous thinking about having my root canal retreated. I have had minimal discomfort after the treatment and felt they did an amazing job with the work. This has left a great impression for me.

How do you rate something like this? It's not something we all decide to just do or shop for. But they are super professional and have great tech and deliver an overall as good as it can be experience. Dr Jung and Jessica took care of everything expertly. Jessica had an arsenal of organization and everything was super clean. Loved the 'sterilization' and instrument trays that just felt like preparing for a moon launch. Dr Jung described the procedures. The risks. And amazingly was super efficient. I went in for a retreat. These are worse than regular since they need to undo the other job and do a new one. They showed me where the other place went wrong and what they would do to fix it. I don't like to write negative reviews as everyone has an opinion and they aren't here to explain why they did it wrong. Suffice to say. It had to be redone and Dr Jung fixed it. When it comes to something like this, you want it done expertly at a reasonable price. Dr Jung delivered on both. I found Essential from my normal dentist and they recommended them. So that's at least two votes of confidence! Good luck and sorry you are reading this as, well, you're going for a reason and so was I. These guys deliver and I felt there service and skill was superb.

My visit was very good. The procedure that I had was done very well. All the staff were great. The only issue that I had was trying to hear/understand the staff talking with a mask on.

Was in bad pain and got in quickly during holiday week in November. I had to get a root canal after tests. The Dr got the procedure done same day in a timely manner and no pain! I had a few root canals in the past with different Doctors with pain after, but not this time! Definitely recommend this place!!!
