I spent a pointless night with no sleep worrying about my root canal with Dr. Jesperson based on the reviews on this site. I can happily say my worries were completely unfounded. Dr. Jesperson was very friendly, professional and efficient. I don't know who likes to settle in for a nice liesurely chat with their dentist during a root canal, but I was simply hoping for someone who would listen to me, care if I was in pain, and do the job well. Dr. Jesperson was all of those things.
His assistant was also fantastic and noticed right away how tense and nervous I was. She told me to breathe, and helped reassure me the procedure was not that difficult or complicated. She got me a blanket when I said I was cold. I didn't feel one bit of pain as she and the doctor performed the root canal on my 3 months broken molar (which WAS causing me a lot of daily pain). I kept my eyes closed during prep as well, and couldn't even feel the novacaine injection.
If you have an appointment with Dr. Jesperson, be certain that you are in good hands and your scary sounding 'root canal' will be as pleasant and quick as I imagine it could possibly be. The cost did shock me, but it IS the Bay Area, what can you do?
