Ry & Dr Yu we're exceptional & gave me excellent care. If I ever need a root canal I will be back here in a second. State of the art equipment.

Exceptional care! Dr. Tangredi and his team are the best around. The office is beautiful - a friendly and relaxed environment - great location, ample parking. I felt cared for from start to finish. I cannot say enough great things about Root Dental. Highly recommend.

I just want to make one thing very clear before I get to far into this review, I hate the dentist. Not the individual themselves, but the the premise of getting work done on your teeth. Now when my tooth decided to dip out and die on me causing the worst pain of my life, I knew that I was going to need a Root Canal. A procedure I've dreaded my whole life. After meeting with a dentist they referred me to Root Dental Specialists and then scheduled me an appointment. They said Dr.Tangredi was the best in the business and that I need not worry. So yesterday I had my appointment. The work I had done was on a molar, so not a small tooth, however I was in and out in no time at all. Dr.Tangredi asked if I had any questions, I said nope and thus began the procedure. A few minutes in my tooth was hooked up to the Gentle Wave thingy and after 8 minutes (this was the only part I had very, very mild discomfort but it was only 8 minutes and the fillings I've had were much worse) I was done and they patched up my tooth. Then off I went to my dance recital, no pain killers needed. I could hardly tell I had any dental work done in the past day. No inflammation or pain at all. Im completely blown away. Now this is not to say I would electively have this done again especially as it is a-little more expensive because I'm a college kid who doesn't have dental insurance, but if you need work done, definitely check them out.

Went to Root Dental Specialist yesterday for root canal therapy and I am very pleased to say the procedure went extremely well with zero post-operative issues. I would recommend Dr. Tangredi and his staff for anyone needing his expertise. Thank you Dr Tangredi and your staff.

I put off a root canal long enough and finally made the decision to schedule an appointment. After my consultation and before my scheduled root canal, my tooth ended up cracking and falling apart. I was petrified that it was no longer going to be restorable. The amazing team at Dr. Tangredi's office fit me in last minute and Dr. Tangredi was able to restore the tooth, thankfully. Like so many other individuals, I experience trepidation at the mere thought of going to the dentist. Every team member that I encountered here was knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming. Dr. Tangredi was incredibly patient with me and did a phenomenal job at continually making sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. If you've had a bad experience with a dentist or dental specialist, rest assured you're in good hands here. Hopefully I won't need a reason to see them in the near future, but if for some reason I do, I'll know that I can feel comfortable and trust the team at Dr. Tangredi's office.

Fantastic!!!! Who says that about a root canal~ right? But seriously one of the best dental experiences of my life. I had been walking around with an absess for over a year and although not in pain in serious need of a good treatment. I am so grateful for the staff's genuine care and incredible patient first teamwork. Will always praise this office and this Doctor moving forward. Thank you Dr. Tangredi!!!

If you need a root canal don't go anywhere else. I was nervous as heck about my appointment and Dr Tangredi & his staff were amazing. It was painless and they were fantastic. Great people.

As a dental specialist, I feel extremely comfortable with my patients in the care of Dr. Tangredi. He is as skilled and talented as he is kind and compassionate. I honestly can not recommend Root Dental Specialists enough. Class act!

I cannot say enough good things about this practice! Dr.Tangredi is genuine, kind and most of all great at what he does! My sister was in severe pain from an infected tooth that not even prescribed pain meds were helping to ease her discomfort. He went above and beyond fixing that tooth and getting her back in the same day to fix the other problem tooth as well. Its been over a week and she hasn't had any pain since she left his office.

Can you imagine feeling confident and at ease to see a dentist? Before I met Dr. Tangredi, I sure couldn't! The work he performed was well above my expectations - and I have a tendency to have very high expectations. I am so grateful that Dr. Tangredi was recommended to me by my general dentist. Dr. Tangredi did an excellent job on a dental surgery I needed. His level of precision and skill is outstanding. But, that in combination with Dr. Tangredi's ability to really listen and communicate well is what sets him apart. Dr. Tangredi evaluated my case with careful consideration and made certain that I understood my options, his recommended course of action, and why he came to his conclusions. He answered all of my questions, and patiently explained anything I needed clarified. I went in feeling anxious, even terrified, yet Dr. Tangredi made me feel confident and at ease. The surgery Dr. Tangredi performed was excellent. The whole atmosphere was relaxed. His almost synergistic interaction with his assistants made surgery flow smoothly and quickly. My proceedure was pretty invasive, yet afterward my pain level was tolerable and my recovery was quick. Again, I am so grateful that I went to Dr. Tangredi! A year has gone by since my proceedure, and I am very pleased with the results. The problems I was experiencing with my tooth are gone. Beyond that - it's as though I never had surgery. I recently needed help with another endodontic issue that has arisen with a different tooth. There was no question about which endodontist I was going to see. As before, Dr. Tangredi thoroughly evaluated my case. He informed and assured me of all of his findings, and we have a plan on how to proceed. I can't emphasize enough how much respect and gratitude I have for Dr. Tangredi. I definitely recommend him!

I truly can not recommend Root Dental Specialists enough. After some pretty severe pain, I was put in contact with Dr. Tangredi. He got me into the clinic within 24 hours. Not only was he professional and swift with his care, he and his staff were so compassionate and kind during a procedure I was pretty nervous about. I always envisioned a root canal as a painful and terrifying procedure, but this was the exact opposite. I didn't feel a thing, and it was truly an EASY experience- not something I thought I'd ever say about a root canal. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Thank you Dr. Tangredi, Abby, and Emma. I feel so lucky to have been cared for by you!

I would recommend Dr. Tangredi and his staff to anyone needing his expertise! I was in so much pain on one side of my face, and Advil wasn't helping at all. My dentist recommended Dr. Tangredi, and I'm so glad she did! They were able to get me right in. I needed to have a root canal, but I was so unbelievably nervous about having one. Dr. Tangredi and Emma answered all of my questions and made me comfortable. The whole procedure was painless!! I didn't feel a thing, only pressure. I highly recommend this office to anyone who has dental anxiety! You won't experience that here!

I'm pain free! I am so grateful for the experience I had with Dr. Tangredi and everyone at his practice. I had been in severe pain for a month and he was able to assess the situation and treat the situation quickly and with delicate care. The office is beautiful and super clean, the staff is friendly and made me feel comfortable, and Dr. Tangredi was honest and sensitive to my needs. I am now pain free and it feels amazing! I highly recommend Dr. Tangredi!
