I have gotten a root canal and several fillings done and all of them have actually been pleasant. Of course having these things done are not expected to painless but there was minimal pain. I actually fell asleep during my root canal for a few minutes and the dentist was only using general anestetic. I used to be afraid of going to the dentist but when my mom found Dr. Hakimzadeh it was the best possible thing. Now I make my own appointments and I keep on track with my cleanings every 6 months after my cavities were fixed and I have been cavity free for four years. The office is in a convenient area and the entire staff in the office is nice and actually knows me by name. This is truly a great place to be sure you care for your teeth the least I can do is let everyone I can know how wonderful it is to get my dental work done. They even make sure that my appointments do not interfere with insurance policy so that in do not have to pay extra money for having more than one visit for every 6 months. If you are someone that is afraid of te dentist like I used to be this is the best place for you :)
