I absolutely love this office. Everyone I interact with (office ladies, dental hygienists, and the dentist) are friendly and kind. I've had the pleasure of seeing Ann twice now. I feel lucky to be her patient. She is patient and a joy to be around. I have always felt nervous going to the dentist, but with Ann I feel safe and enjoy my time. Her work is amazing - I leave with my teeth feeling clean and smooth. Thanks so much to everyone here, and a special thanks to Ann!

The staff and Dr. Krischke are excellent. All 4 kids and myself all with clean teeth and no cavities. We have gone here since 2017 and I can't imagine going anywhere else. They even saved my son's molar late at night when it was knocked out. We all love coming!

Frequently Asked Questions About Root Canals

Why are root canals necessary?

If you don't treat a cavity right away, the decay can spread and eventually reach the pulp, the soft inner portion of the tooth. When that is infected, a root canal is needed to clean out the pulp, sanitize the tooth, and seal it with a restoration to prevent further problems. A root canal will end your toothache and save your tooth from extraction.

Do root canals hurt?

Root canal technology has come a long way. Years ago, they were not as comfortable as they are now. Today, you can get a root canal with virtually no discomfort. In fact, our modern root canal procedures are as simple as having a cavity filled. You can always trust our gentle, highly skilled team to numb you sufficiently and help you relax if you're hesitant about getting a root canal.

How much do root canals cost?

Your individual situation, the location of the infected tooth, and other factors will ultimately determine the cost of your root canal treatment. We recommend you come in for an initial exam so we can assess your situation. Then we can give you an accurate estimate of your treatment cost, as well as go over all of our flexible payment options, so you know what to expect and can make the best decision for your budget.
