A root canal is one of the most common dental procedures performed, well over 14 million every year. This simple treatment can save your natural teeth and prevent the need of dental implants or bridges.
At the center of your tooth is pulp. Pulp is a collection of blood vessels that helps to build the surrounding tooth. Infection of the pulp can be caused by trauma to the tooth, deep decay, cracks and chips, or repeated dental procedures. Symptoms of the infection can be identified as visible injury or swelling of the tooth, sensitivity to temperature or pain in the tooth and gums.

Honest and caring Referred to him for root canal after exam he advised that the tooth could not be saved he could have just performed the root canal which probably would have failed in a short time His honesty saved me additional expenses and pain! He and his staff were professional and caring Highly recommend

I recently had a root canal done by Dr. Gill. From original consultation through the actual procedure everything was handled quickly, smoothly and efficiently. Dr. Gill's office staff is very professional and friendly. Dr. Gill explained the entire procedure and was patient answering my questions. I appreciated his outstanding skill as an Endodontist as it resulted in a virtually pain free root canal. I highly recommend Dr. Gill.

I had my first root canal and was not excited about the numbing aspect. I barely felt any pinch and had no issues with feeling the procedure. Dr. Bill was very knowledgeable and explained everything to me before he did it. He did great. Definitely recommend

I was TERRIFIED to go to this appointment and have what I would consider to be a VERY bad phobia of the dentist. In fact in the waiting room I had so much anxiety that I had trouble breathing and was tempted to just leave. By the time I was in the chair and waiting for Dr Gill I was so nervous I thought I was going to pass out, so when the he came in to introduce himself and asked me how I was doing, I was overcome with emotion I could no longer hold in my tears. I was embarrassed that I couldn't control my emotions but how he handled that on a human to human level was an experience I will carry with me forever. Dr Gill was so incredibly kind and compassionate and Having my root canal done Was by far one of the easiest appointments/procedures that I've ever had at any kind of medical office. Aside from the fact that the procedure went perfectly with zero pain nor complications, I will be forever grateful for Dr Gills empathy towards me and I truly can not recommend him enough. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you Dr Gill and staff For your support in the first step of a long journey to getting my smile back.

I had my first appointment with Dr. Gill today. What an amazing man and Endodontist. He did a root canal. He has an extremely great personality and very smart. He shared all details of everything he planned to do, explained why and how.

I have had a couple root canals done by Dr. Gill. He is great. He is very thorough and upfront. I have major anxiety at the dentist and he knows I have a rough time. He talked to me throughout the root canal and told me a great story to keep my mind off the anxiety. I highly recommend Dr. Gill.

Car mechanic rip off this doctor compared himself to a car mechanic that if he can't find what's wrong you'll have to come back after it gets worse then he sent me on my way and charges me 150.00 consultation fee. I went there from a referral from another dentist. I will never go back. He's from the south eastern Wisconsin orthodontics group.
