Dr. Black is wonderful! I was so nervous about having 2 root canals at the same time. He prescribe medication for my anxiety which helped so much. I felt no pain during the procedure and Dr. Black made me feel so comfortable and at ease. His assistant and receptionist were wonderful as well! Very kind and welcoming! I would recommend him to my family and friends! If I need dental work again I will definitely be calling Dr. Black!

Dr. Black and his team at Gentle Endodonics were fantastic helping our son with his lip and tongue tie. He was struggling so much to nurse and after the quick and efficient procedure we could tell an immediate improvement. Gentle Endodonics have a clean, beautiful, and modern interior and all of the staff are extremely kind. I would recommend them for any gum work that you need done.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. I just moved to the area from another state and I am still trying to learn my way around. I took the day off from work for my appointment and that morning I had a lot going on. I had a major plumbing issue that caused me to get to my appointment about 7 min late and it also got a bit lost. To top it off because of everything going on I forgot my paperwork. When I got there I was told I could not be seen because I was late. I was in pain and needed treatment right away but that didn't stop the dentist from turning me away.

My oldest needed to get his tongue tie cut. He was very nervous. The doctor was so sweet. He was very patient and caring. Made sure my boy did not feel a thing. I would recommend him 1000X!!

Dr. Black corrected my baby's lip and tongue tie using a laser. He was so caring and gentle with her. His office personnel are also so wonderful! Definitely recommend them if your need a lip or tongue tie revision for your little one.

I just moved here from Wisconsin and was worried about finding a good doctor for my root canal. I sure hit the jackpot with this group. The whole experience was wonderful. Amy at the front desk was phenomenal. Called her for five times and tested her and ask questions and she was always pleasant. I get there for the appointment and she smiling and pleasant takes care of me and did a wonderful job. Then I get to the room for my appointment and Sarah the assistant for Dr. Black was so pleasant and kind. it was wonderful seeing a team that worked together so well. Best news of all Dr. Black was able to save my crown during the root canal and save me an additional $1400 expense that I would've had to put a new crown on the tooth. I told him how much I appreciated the effort that he made to do that and he did it well. And the name Gentle Endodontics is so Fitting. I actually fell asleep during the procedure. So to Dr. Blank and his team I just want to say thank you so much for the best experience I have ever had with a dental procedure.

I felt compelled to share a review for Dr. Samuel Black. I have had a very unfortunate medical history experiencing 100's of doctors and medical facilities with dozens of serious surgeries. Dr. Black performed my root canal a few months ago. I was only 2 months post hip replacement surgery where procedures of any kind are not allowed for 6 months after, unless emergent. Dr. Black was so professional, so thorough, so kind, in treating me, as was his staff. A month after the root canal, I started experiencing pain in the area around that tooth. I went to the dentist and they had nothing to offer, so I waited a few weeks and had no choice but contact Dr. Black, fearing additional cost after an expensive root canal. Dr. Black, after a thorough examination found two issues, and suggested two courses of action to improve the discomfort..While things did get better, it did not subside and grew even more painful around my entire jaw. So within this Cornavirus Pandemic feeling desperate, for relief, I contacted Dr. Black again where he fit me right in for the second time, This time with a non-related diagnosis having nothing to do with the root canal he did, he figured out what the issue was, and I have since turned a corner after over a month in pain. I couldn't be more grateful for his professionalism, dedication to the patients situation, and inclusive followup care covered under the original procedure. I would recommend anyone use Dr. Black for any endodontal needs, for the most professional , kind service. I thank him very much for getting me through this tough situation, and wanted post a truly five star experience.

I felt very comfortable in this office. Dr. Black does excellent work and all the staff is so friendly and helpful. Dr. Black was so kind throughout the multiple visits and did a great job lasering my 2 month old's mouth who had lip and tongue and cheek ties. I have nothing but great things to say about our experience- I highly recommend!

Every time I came her, I feel so well taken care of. Amy, at the front desk, is so patient and kind.Dr Black is so professional and calm when he is working, Sarah, the assistant is so gentle and so sweet. And I had the pleasure to meet Elena, Dr. Black's wife who is an angel. She is so sincere and open to help and make you feel comfortable. This place has been a family to me and I am so grateful and blessed that I had them as my doctors and assistants.

Dr Black and his office staff were truly amazing! When they say gentle Endodontics, they mean it! I had a big root canal because of an abscess that was treated very gently and pain-free. I highly recommend this office and I won't go anywhere else! Thanks to all of you at gentle endodontics!

Dr Black and his Assistant were professional and friendly. Can almost say I enjoyed having a Root Canal, lol. Seriously though, no pain whatsoever and for this 55 year old having her first Root Canal, I am very appreciative!! If you need this service don't hesitate to schedule and go here!!
