They were able to see me on short notice, and were very efficient with their work. They gave me cost estimates upfront and explained what my insurance would cover. They had the 3D scan machine in house, so I didn't have to wait or get referred out for that. The endodontist, Dr Ko made a lot of sense with his explanation of the problem. Overall I was very happy and will come back here next time.

Dr. Vlad Shuster had seen me about ten years ago and I decided to come back so he could do a root canal on my tooth. Due to flooding in the area due to heavy rain, I was able to make it to the appointment ten minutes behind (I respectfully called the office to let them know I was running a few minutes late and the receptionist said ok). As I arrive , the receptionist greeted me and they took me in for the appointment. I had booked the appointment at least one month prior and had clearly explained that I was already diagnosed by another dentist that I needed a root and needed extra time to come and get the root canal done on the same day. The receptionist promised me over the phone that Dr. Shuster was going to perform everything on the same day. I have been suffering with terrible root canal pain for the past month and was looking forward to the appointment. Dr. Shuster took me in, did an X-ray (he already had one from my dentist but wanted to take a new one, I said yes) looked at me me and said you will need a root canal but you need to come back because I don't have time to do it today. Are you kidding me? Not only this, he displayed machismo as its best when I said his receptionist had promised he would have time to do my treatment on the same day. He got very angry and raised his voice at me in front of all his assistants and literally in a rude manner asked me to get out of his office. He has some serious anger issues and I would not recommend any female patient around this bully. I am a RN and this is not how a healthcare professional should act towards a patient. Total disrespect!! Do yourself a favor and go look for a nice and professional dentist. There are plenty in SF. Oh, and they will be billing me $221 for all this. Great way to start the year Dr. Shuster, screwing over patients.Stay away!!!

VERY NERVOUS heading into an Emergency appointment for an infection in an upper molar that had gotten pretty complicated. The support staff were all super considerate of my well being and comfort and Dr. Shuster was a thoughtful and considerate communicator as we discussed the various options available to try and save the tooth. His 1hour treatment to stabilise the tooth was expertly concluded with perfect results. This experience was well beyond my expectations. Very much appreciated.

I was made to have two root canal surgeries on one tooth. Inrurance covered ⅔ of the first one so I paid about $300+ out of pocket.But I had to pay about $900 completely out of pocket for the 2nd one.Dr said it was “Permanent”.The 1-Star comes because NOBODY told me this was going to happen at the beginning.They literally had me on the hook from the first one, warning me of all the scary things that could happen to me if I don’t come back for the “permanent” procedure.But when the Dr first spoke to me, he said I would simply do A root canal, and go get a crown.And yet, here I was doing a “temporary root canal” then a “permanent root canal”.I feel completely duped! Terrible experience!Also this is strange because I feel ALMOST certain that I posted my review 2 years ago. I guess I must have forgotten to click post.Anyways, I hate to be the one to spoil the 5-star party here, but I must say my truth all the same:I came to this dentist 2 years ago - still the earlier days of COVID.This was going to be my first root canal ever,and also my first REAL “Health Care” experience since I came to the USA 6 years ago.Now I need more work done on my teeth. I may likely be flying to Mexico this time. But certainly not coming back to these people.

Great environment! The staff was extremely pleasant and caring! Allowed me to feel free to ask questions no matter how silly. Root Canal’s make me nervous 😬Clayton was a delight to have as the Doctor’s assistant!I got Bluetooth Beats to connect to my phone for my choice of favorite music to take me through the procedure. Highly recommended! Thank you Dr. Dehmer!

I went in for a root canal and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of care I received. Loren made every effort to get me the earliest appointment available. Not only did Irina efficiently prepare me for the procedure but kept me comfortable the entire time. Dr. Leong carefully explained the procedure and alternative and did the root canal with virtually no discomfort and the final X-ray showed her success. This is the Dream Team of endodontics!!

Never thought I'd say these words - but I had an excellent root canal yesterday! lol They saw me within a few business days of calling them. I had Dr. Ko, and his assistant Irina. They were pleasant, thorough, and very efficient. The peak of your pain will be the needles to numb the area, beyond that, the feeling is more weird/uncomfortable than anything else. Think about it as a super deep filling. Bring your music - they provide noise cancelling headphones. You'll definitely still hear the drilling, but it helps. As for recovery, it's been great! Once the numbing wears off I actually started to feel better, not worse. I took 600mg of ibuprofen before my appointment, and then alternated that with Tylenol every 6 hours thereafter. It's been 24 hours and I don't feel anything. Back to work!

I 100% recommended Endodontic Arts of SF to anyone who needs endodontic treatment. My treatment team included Dr. Dehmer and his assistant Clay. I could not have been in better hands. They were thorough, offer complete explanation of the process, and prioritized comfort and expert results. Root canals are often dreaded, but the entire procedure here was pain free. I’m surprised that even after the numbness wore off that I still experienced zero pain. I cannot thank Dr. Dehmer and his team enough. I hope I will not need anymore root canals, but if I did, I would DEFINITELY return here.

The staff at Endodontic Arts is absolutely wonderful! They are thoughtful and patient. Loren was incredibly welcoming. Irina and Dr. Ko are so thorough and kind. I went in for a root canal... which, let's be honest, I was not looking forward to. But I was immediately comforted by Irina and Dr. Ko's professionalism. Dr. Ko is meticulous, constantly checking his work. I thought I would be in grave pain and suffer for days but it's only been a day and I feel just fine. If anyone needs to endure a root canal (which I hope you never need to), please get it taken care of at Endodontic Arts. They make it as pleasant as possible.

I was referred here for a root canal and the staff was nothing short of incredible. I was very comfortable during every step of the process. Dr. Leong is kind and communicative and everyone I interacted with made an experience that could have been more difficult very manageable. Necessary precautions were taken for the current pandemic and I applaud them for all of the adjustments they have made and continue to make each day to care for their patients. Would recommend to anyone!
