I had a root canal procedure by Dr Schapiro. The procedure took 2 visits. The 1st procedure, I had NO pain...NONE!! Didn't feel the needles to numb me! Equipment was new technology as he used a microscope to see the work he was doing in my mouth. Returned in 3 wks as requested. Had some sensitivity in the tooth. When numbing this time, I felt it slightly. He completed the procedure. 2 days later...It feels perfect!! He did a great job. Very professional, very kind and concerned. I was impressed that he was very polite to his assistant too, please and thank you!! The staff were all helpful. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Schapiro for a root canal and would return if needed again....hopefully not to soon!!! LOL
