Since I needed a root retrieval, which is normally expensive procedure, I have tried to consult several cheaper endodontists in the area first to save a couple of bucks. None of them showed any level of competence in root retrieval. Then Ive heard of Dr. Roth. Scheduling over the phone was very smooth and upon arriving into his office, I was warmly greeted by his front desk assistant and after a couple of minutes I was in the chair. He has thoroughly explained every single step and detail about the coming procedure, including the level of pain and at what stage I might be experiencing discomfort. Finally somebody knew what they were doing. He is very easy to talk to, uses words that are easy to understand and his entire office gives out sort of a good feeling of being in good hands. Armed with this information and good impression, Ive given him my consent to proceed. The entire procedure lasted about 1.5 hour, during which I have not felt a thing. He might not be the cheapest around, but he is worth every penny. He requires to be paid immediately by cash or credit card, but will work with your insurance to submit all the necessary paperwork for the reimbursement. Two thumbs up.
