My experience was amazing. Though root canals are never fun for your mouth or your wallet, Dr Jung & his staff did an exceptional job with my procedure. It was quick, the receptionist were beyond pleasant, the music selection was impeccable & they even gave me a coupon for a free bundlet at Nothing Bundt Cake. I would def recommend their office & services.

First time visit with never experiencing a root canal, and over all outstanding work. Great smiles from the moment I walked in, until the moment I left. Dr. Clark made the entire experience painless and reassuring. Her assistant was amazing with the best attitude and very nice. Highly recommended from my end.

I had a very good experience at Essential Endodontics. The Staff was very kind, knowledgeable & professional. Wether it was taking x-rays, assisting the doctor or explaining the cost of the procedure. The doctor thrives on being precise. He did an amazing job on my 2 root canals! I knew I would be sore when the numbing medicine wore off, but it wasn't much worse than before my procedure. I definitely recommend Essential Endodontics!

First time needing a root canal and was very nervous. Esperanza and Dr. Jung made the experience painless and easy going. I'm hoping I won't need another root canal but if I ever do this place will be the place I go.

I went in for a root canal, it was my first time with such a procedure but the people there were so helpful and really good at keeping a calm and easygoing attitude. They also did a very good job of explaining all the best options and making sure I was comfortable with what they would do before they did it.

I was in urgent need of a root canal and when I called to make an appointment, they were able to see me the next day! Everyone in the office was so kind and I was seen quickly. Dr Jung explained everything to me which eased my anxiety, he checked on me frequently to make sure I wasn't having any pain, and before I knew it, my root canal was done. I was so impressed with this place, if I ever need another root canal I'm definitely going here.
