Making a long story short, I got a most excellent gen dentistry visiit with Dr. Jaber who showed me the abcess on xray and referred to Dr. Ghazal for root canal.
I know my way around root canals as a patient, but was not prepared for this guy.
Fully communicating all risks, possible experiences during procedure, etc, he threw a mouth tarp over me and said something like "let's do this root canal. I eat, sleep and drink root canals. Focus on your breath, a little pinch coming here."
I was more entertained with his focus, humor, and quick shifting gears than I was concerned about having the root canal. Utmost professionalism, uncanny touch as a mentalist...go see Dr. Ghazal if you need an endodondist!
He was, and I am not being paid, the perfect guy to know he is absolutely competent and help you relax.
