out of Read Reviews for Dr. Richard Kalikow
I went to visit Dr Kalikow because my old dentist messed up a root canal. from the minute i walked in i felt at ease, Dr Kalikow is great, he listens and gives straight forward honest answers that you understand. it was unfortunate he could not save my tooth, but without doubt it was worth the 1 hour drive and i would definately go there again.

I had my first root canal done by Dr. Kalikow today. I am 25 and a huge baby when it comes to needles and work done on my mouth. Dr Kalikow and his staff made me feel much better. He is obviously very educated and knowledgeable. The staff at his office put my worries at ease and made the procedure as comfortable as possible. He is very gentle, and I had virtually no pain. I love the fact that he explains everything that he will be doing. Overall, it was a great experience (as great as it can get while getting a root canal) I would definitely suggest going to this office you have great fears as I do.

He was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable. He put my fears at ease and made me understand everything that was going on. I would recommend him to people looking for a nice, honest endodontist.

I have had two root canals done by Dr. Kalikow and would recommend him to anyone I know. He provided a very relaxed atmosphere and kept me informed while the whole process was going on. He's very concerned with patient comfort, and I experienced very little discomfort on either occasion. I did not have insurance coverage, but he gave me a discount to the rate that is normally billed to insurance companies.

Dr. Kalikow became my endodontist probably fifteen years ago. He does an AMAZING job of completing your root canal in ONE visit (even a couple of my molars that were really tough ones - for him). His local anesthesia method is extremely proactive and I have never had a problem with discomfort during the procedure. I have genetically "soft" teeth and have had six molars root canaled by Dr. Kalikow. I have only lost the very last bottom left tooth, which was extracted on Dr. Kalikow's advice, which I believe was the right advice (he said I wouldn't miss the tooth, and I don't!!). He and his staff are also very proactive on responding to emergencies and scared patients. Speak up and tell them you are concerned and they will help you. I understand he now offers "twilight sleep" and I may try that next time I need him to see how that experience is. I highly recommend Dr. Kalikow and root canal therapy - keep fighting for your teeth and they will serve you for a long time. BONUS: Your decayed tooth will look GORGEOUS with its new cap!
