Tri-State is amazing! From the moment you walk in they are all so kind and relaxed and it makes you feel relaxed when you go in there. I am speaking from 2 wonderful experiences that I've had with them. They are very straightforward and make sure that you know what they are going to do and their plan for future appointments. They are very open and honest. At my first appointment with them I was a bit nervous because I had had a bad experience with a different specialist at a different practice. They allowed me to listen to music while they worked and let me tell you I was in and out with no pain. There is nothing bad that I can say about tri-state root canal specialists. They are amazing. I would highly recommend them

I really can't say enough good things about Tri-State root canal specialists. I thank God that this is where my general dentist referred me to. I was treated with a high level of skill, empathy, and care. All of the staff was so friendly. Dr. John Lundstrom was so Incredibly good. Even the numbing needle I received was the best I've ever received. Wasn't bad at all. I pray that I won't need another root canal in my life, but if I do I will not hesitate to call tri-state!

The appointment started out good but went down hill fast. Work started before I was completely numb. At several points I was struggling to breathe with no way to get them to pause. I think there was a complication during the procedure based on frustration in their voices. Whole jaw hurt after procedure no scripts for pain or infection. Wouldn't recommend or go back if I ever need another root canal. Very disappointed.

I don't know how they manage to make a root canal a pleasant experience. But they do! They're so friendly and make you feel at ease. I hope I don't need another one but if I do they're the best ones to do it.

Many thanks to Dr. Hamann and Gina for a successful root canal today on my 14 y/o. She went into the appointment extremely nervous and felt at ease minutes after visiting with Dr. Hamann. We appreciate the flexibility of your staff for getting her in your schedule so quickly.

I never thought I'd describe a root canal as a pleasant experience, but here I am referring you to go to Tri-state for the best, most comfortable, painless experience. Staff is very friendly & professional and the whole appointment was less than an hour. I highly recommend Ti-State!
