Dr. Lavasani and team streamlined the process for me, and the results were phenomenal. TLDR; I went to the dentist for the first time after 5-6 years and was written a referral for a root canal, possibly 2, to fight an infection about the size of a penny/nickel in Nov 2025. My treatment was complex, but my first root canal was painless after a week. They walked me through multiple assessments, and we agreed on a plan to save my second tooth before committing to another root canal. My recovery is 6 months before follow up, and my dentist confirmed the infection site is healing nicely after only one month. The pressure's practically gone now, and I'm expecting bone growth within a few months. Recovery is the patient's responsibility, but this office provides quality care and sets you up for success. It's always a good sign when someone follows up and answers your concerns! :) read more

The Doctor, staff and front desk at Contemporary Endodontics is the best experience anybody can expect to get. I had a root canal procedure done by Doctor Islami. He has magical hands. I had no pain during and after the procedures. I highly recommend this office for anybody for any dental work. read more

Dr. Lavasani is very patient. It took a long time to numb my tooth, she waited, gave me 2 more injections to make sure l am fully numb before starting root canal. She also took her time to explain every detail to ensure I understood the procedure and conditions of my other teeth. Everyone in the office is nice and courteous, ensure I have a nice recovery by follow up phone call. Office assistant even referred me to a good general dentist whom l am searching for one. If l ever need another root canal, I will go to Dr. Lavasani definitely! read more

Had a really good experience here. The front desk and assistant was very caring and friendly they put me at ease and then I met Dr. Lavasany she was so also caring and professional. She explained everything carefully and in detail to where I could understand. I'm very happy I went there and highly recommend this office. If of course you want superb service, this is the place for you! read more

Dr. Lavasani and her team are the most amazing, friendly, caring and kind dentist/endodontist I have met so far. Jane in the front office was so thorough and upfront with the insurance coverage and numbers that I didn't have to worry about aftermath insurance problems. There were no hidden costs or extra charges. Dr. Lavasani is very professional and knowledgeable. She did the root canal for my cracked and infected tooth which was bothering me for some time. I felt the difference right away and so much better afterwards. Brooke the tech/assistant, helped with 3D x ray has the greatest sense of humor and made the whole experience so light that felt like I am among the friends even though I went there first time. I had a problem with another tooth with in couple of weeks, I called them for the Xray and to my surprise they accommodated me on the same day and I can't explain how graceful and kind Dr. Lavasani and the whole staff was. I am so grateful I was referred to this place by my dentist. I 100% recommend this place. read more

I posted this in the Google reviews last fall and I am just now realizing I should have also included it here, so here it is... I have been away for 4 months, and now that I have returned, I needed to provide this information to anyone requiring the services of Dr. Eslami and his staff. Just prior to my leaving for the East coast this past May, I began experiencing sensitivity issues and my (WONDERFUL) dentist referred me to Dr. Eslami. During my initial consultation which included a vitality test and 3D scans of my upper molars, I learned that I required immediate care. Dr. Eslami went above and beyond and brought me in on TWO of his typical days off! One root canal at his office in San Francisco and another one on an adjoining tooth at his Cupertino office 10 days later! These procedures allowed me to leave within a week, and to be assured of a problem free summer! Dr. Eslami is a GREAT Endodontist and I felt extremely confident and comfortable in his care. Besides his expertise and providing a pain free experience, I was VERY GRATEFUL for his compassion and willingness to take on these procedures in such short notice and on his non-procedure days! THANK YOU!!!! I also would like to extend my appreciation to his very friendly and accommodating staff (Gabby and Theresa in San Francisco as well as Jane in Cupertino...and Dr. Eslami's assistant, Brooke! I highly recommend Dr. Eslami for anyone requiring his type of specialized services! Steve ps. The San Francisco office has GREAT views! :-) read more

I had such a pleasant experience here. I hate going to the dentist and knowing that I had to get a root canal. It really put my anxiety high but Dr. Lavasani and Jane really put my mind at ease. Thank you for listening to your patients and giving me a pain free procedure. They were honest with the price before proceeding and I appreciate that. I also loved her bedside manners , just a very positive non judgmental dentist. Thank you for treating me! I would go back if I eveeeeeeerrrr have to . read more

Imagine my surprise when something that kind of felt a little "off" when I bit down turned into an emergency root canal before I was about to depart on an international trip! My regular dentist referred me to Dr. Lavasani and I am so glad she was available. She and her staff took excellent care of me during a particularly lengthy procedure. Their professional demeanor and concern for my well being was apparent right from the start. I get a little anxious with the whole mouthguard thingus up in my face and they made sure to check on me regularly to see if I needed a break, needed more suction, if I was still numb and so forth. Brooke, who was assisting, also has a really great sense of humor that made me feel right at home. I dunno about you but I feel like you might as well joke about it if you have to drool all over yourself in front of strangers. I would absolutely recommend this spotless little office to anyone. Plenty of parking, just walk down the left side of the corridor and they're right at the end. You'll be in good hands. read more

My dentist recommended this office for my root canal. From the very beginning the friendly office staff answered my questions on the phone and were very upfront about service and pricing with my insurance. Dr. Lavasani used the most up to date technology to confirm the problem. My comfort and saving the tooth was her top priority. Once the procedure was complete, she did an additional X-ray to be sure everything was up to her standards. Low and behold she saw additional decay below another filling and would not let me go home until she fixed that issue as well. I couldn't be more grateful for her attention to detail and not stopping until the job was done right. Thank you Dr. Lavasani and your amazing team. read more

Seriously Dr. Lavasani and her team saved me today. I have been suffering from a tooth infection that had its own heart beat for 4 days. The pain was unbearable and started to move up to my ear. I couldn't concentrate or even talk properly the pain was just overwhelming. I spent all morning calling 8 different dental offices asking for an emergency root canal, no one was able to help me until I was referred to Contemporary Endodontics. Thank God for them!! As soon as I called them they told me to come in right away. Dr Lavasani spent her whole lunch break on me and I will be forever grateful. She could have easily turned me away or made me wait while she ate but she was so selfless and missed a meal so she could help me out of my misery. She was so kind, comforting and explained everything she was doing and what I should expect once it's done. She was very thorough and took xrays before, during and after to make sure she didn't miss anything and that everything was done properly. Her and her assistant Brooke were very cheerful and fun, they made me feel so comfortable. The worst part of this root canal experience was not only the pain, but the stench of the infected tooth pulp that permeated the room once she drilled into the infection. Oh my goodness!!! I never smelled anything so disgusting in my life!!! It was nauseating and repulsive! I could have put a durian in the room as an air freshener, that's how bad the stench was ! Brooke and Dr. Lavasani were so gracious and powered thru the surgery like real bosses and didn't let the smell slow them down. I can't imagine smelling infections on a daily basis as a career but God bless them because they are saving lives one root canal at a time. That being said I would definitely go back if ever I have any issues with my teeth again. They have a friendly, good looking team, their check in process is very quick and done on a digital device, it's a very clean and neat office. Thanks a million Dr. Lavasani you saved me today! read more

Dr. Lavasani is one of the best dentists I have ever known , she cares about her patients and does great job with her knowledge and expertise , my wife traveled from east coast to California to visit Dr. Lavasani to fix the problem with her teeth , Dr. Lavasani's staff are very friendly and nice and their follow up is great. I recommend Dr. Lavasani to everyone who is looking for a great dentist . read more

Dr Eslami and his team are literally the best in the game. If you are looking for a passionate and honest endodontist to do your root canal, stop searching. His team are very nice and accommodating as well. read more

The entire Team is very friendly, heartful and caring. Very friendly and very detailed in providing information around the current and future appointments. I have done many dental treatments with many dentists so far. But doing my dental work with Dr. Sanaz Lavasani at at Contemporary Endodontics is just a very different experience. I love her work so much she is very gentle and patience with her patients. They take good care of you and operate at the pace at which you find comfortable. Plan on staying with them till I am in Bay Area. read more

I am so happy to find a Contemporary Endodontics. I went in for a root canal today and everything went smooth and painless. Dr. Lavasani and her team were so warm, kind, and professional. The receptionist gave me a clear pricing and insurance benefits left amount from the beginning. The oral evaluation was done carefully and gently. She took the time to listen to me and let me know what was going on along the way. I am truly delighted with the care I received today. Thank you! read more

Everyone hates going to the dentist. After years I found out I needed a root canal and was referred here. From the day I scheduled the appointment until after the payment this has been one of the best experiences I've had. The staff was extremely kind and caring. All questions were answered thoroughly. Most importantly I have almost no pain and haven't needed any meds post procedure. read more

This was the best root canal I've ever had... and ... I wouldn't normally associate the words "best" and "root canal" together. They have extremely professional and gentle staff. They have modern equipment like some kind of stereoscopic microscope or something, it was quite fascinating to watch the doctor. Speaking about the doctor.... what an amazing professional. He knows exactly what he's doing and how to set the right expectations for his patients. Look let's be clear here - I'm a huge baby when it comes to dental work. I squeal at the mere sight of the little cue-tip they numb your mouth with. Let's not speak about the syringe... The dental assistant was absolutely amazing. She literally held my hand while I was having anxiety. I felt extremely comfortable in this normally uncomfortable situation. Then the doctor came in, and he solidified that confidence even more. He knew exactly what he was doing and he explained every step of the way. I ... umm... I can't wait to have another root canal... I guess? :) Thank you!!! read more

I'm so glad I found them. Not only do they perform great work but they're some of the nicest people I've ever met. Got a root canal work is such an unpleasant experience but I went in Dr.Yashar did a awesome job with keeping me relaxed. He had all the best technology which make his work perfected. I like how he had a mouth cover and shade wear where water wasn't splash eveywhere. Did not feel like I had got any major work done. He incredibly personable, knowledgeable and skilled. Definitely recommend your next root canal treatment done here. read more

WOW!!! This was my first time getting a root canal and I was very scared because I've heard horror stories about how painful it is. I'm happy to say that I had the exact opposite of that with Dr.Lavasani and her assistant Brooke. They were very professional and made me feel very comfortable, the office is clean and the staff is amazing! I wish they did general dentistry as well because I would absolutely go to them for everything! Dr.Lavasani was thorough, I had ZERO pain during the process. After words I had minimal soreness on the injection site, other wise I feel amazing! They are hands down the best in the business! read more

This was the second root canal that I had with Dr. Lavasani and I am extremely happy with her service. She was patient, very knowledgeable, and humble enough to explain every step to me. She also didn't mind to take a few x-rays during the procedure to make sure my curvy tooth roots are all clear. read more

I was recently referred to Dr. Lavasani for a consultation and possible re-treatment for a Root Canal I had done in the past. As soon as I walked in,I noticed cleanliness and was welcomed warmly by the front staff. As soon as I checked in,I was brought into a quaint room by the amazing Brooke whom was Dr.Lavasani's assistant. Dr.Lavasani took exceptional care of my chief complaints which was mostly the pain i was experiencing. She explained in great detail about my case and was adamant about taking care of my needs. Her level of professionalism matches her wit and charm and I can say without a doubt that I will definitely be referring others here. Dental phobia is a real thing but having a procedure such as a Root Canal can be even more jarring. Dr.Lavasani and her team quickly alleviate that fear and I couldnt be more appreciative! -Vida read more

I had a fantastic experience here. I needed a root canal and was in a lot of pain. The staff were really great and got me an appointment within a couple of days. The procedure was completely painless and I had no pain afterwards, which I found very surprising considering the pain I had going in. read more

Excellent treatment by Dr. Yashar. They let us know the cost beforehand and handle the process extremely well. They even call and follow up post treatment to check if all's well. They care for you ! Thank you :) read more

I saw Dr Yashar Eslami and he inspected my XRay and told me that he had to perform a root canal as there was an infection underneath my first molar in which I already had a root canal done few years back. He had to remove the infection and inject some antibiotic on the infected area to heal. The operation was smooth and almost painless. Dr. Eslami is very calm and he made me feel really comfortable. After a six month period I got a call back from his office for a check up on the recovery and he took a look at the X Ray and inspected the tooth. All went fine. I am very happy with the entire procedure. I would definitely recommend Dr. Eslami. read more

No one really wakes up and goes "Hey, I want a root canal today." So I, like many people avoided the dentist for years and years. And yes, as a result I had a lot of work needed to be done. Poor childhood experiences with dentist left me absolutely TERRIFIED of any dental work. But-it turns out that I needed some dental work to replace a crown, and underneath it we found more issues. While apprehensive at first, I was referred to the Contemporary Endodontics by my dentist to get a root canal. Terrified going in...however going out? Heck, I'd root canal all my teeth. Every single one, here's why: -The receptionists a friendly, funny, patient, and very responsive! I was able to get a quick appointment as they were happy to accommodate my weird work schedule. They were very clear with cost and any questions related to medication and followup as needed. -The staff clearly work very well together, while it is a small practice, they are very close in communication and very well organized, almost like a family. From the time I came in to do paperwork to the back where the procedure was done, the whole process was seamless and transparent. -The office is lovely! It's very clean, it smells nice, they have some little tea's and such for when you wait too. (They also have wifi which is a godsend in the working world of today.) All in all a nice ambiance to the space complete with relaxing music, which is a bonus for neurotic people like me. I immediately felt as if I wasn't in a cold clinic, but a sort of homey office where people care about their profession, office, and their clients. -The procedure itself? Dr.Yashar is a calm, confident, and patient man- who was empathetic and apprehensive to my many fears. He ensured that I felt no pain, and worked quickly and effectively to figure out my issue. I found his work to be very thorough and he and the staff ensured multiple times the job was done before letting me go. His assistant likewise kept checking on me, and was very friendly and kind which helped me calm down over the length of the procedure. I really can't thank the team enough, I went in absolutely terrified, and now- I would not go anywhere else should I need further Endodontics. read more

One of the best treatment I have ever had. Doctor Yashar is a very knowledgeable, skilled, empathetic and caring medical professional. I needed to redo one of my root canals and internally bleach a tooth. He helped with both and the results were first class. I am happy I was able to undergo treatment with him. His staff was also was very caring throughout the process. I still have two more teeth to do and I know I am in good hands. read more

I had a root canal done by Dr Yashar and it was the most pain free dental visit I ever had. All the staff starting with the front and back are very polite. wait time was very minimum they all make you feel very comfortable. Highly recommended!!! read more

I got my root canal done here earlier this year. 6 months later they asked me to come back to have a checkup to make sure it's healed completely, and it did! Dr. Lavasani was so professional, gentle, and caring when she did my procedure. I had a bad experience at another place previously so I'm so glad I decided to come to contemporary. It was pretty painless and I had something to bite on to hold my mouth open during the root canal, so I didn't get tired. The equipment also seems pretty new and the place is very clean. Would definitely have my friends/family members come here as well. And most of all I didn't have to wait (some other places made me wait 40min after the appointment time), the moment I walked in they were ready to help me! read more

I was referred to Dr Eslami for a root canal. As nerve wrecking as the build up was,I was automatically relieved when I walked in and Brooke offered me water and a super friendly demeanor. I felt welcomed right away. Dr Eslami is very kind and calm. He did a fantastic job on my root canal and really took his time to make sure that what he did was accurate and precise. I couldn't have asked for better care. I also have very sensitive teeth and it takes a lot to get me numb. No worries here! Dr Eslami made sure I was properly numb and I never felt a thing! Thank you Team for making my experience a pleasurable one! read more

I had a such a good experience with dr. Yashar! I was in so much pain my dentist said I needed a root canal and they were able to see me right away. I had never experienced so much pain in my life! tooth pain is no joke! I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, I was having constant pain day and night. When when he got me numb it was like the pain stopped! The assistant brook was very nice and the doctor explained everything to me and helped me understand the dental procedure. It's been a week since I had my root canal and no more pain! Thank you dr. Yashar for fixing my tooth & getting me out of pain! Anyone who needs a root canal should go to this doctor! #bestrootcanalspecialistever! read more

OK so... I was referred to Dr. Eslami and it turned out to be the best referral ever! I needed to have a root canal replacement. No pain whatsoever! The whole process from start to finish was as stream-lined as it could be. I first spoke with Jane to get the appointment. She was very flexible and accommodating with my schedule. I went to the office and met Gabby, Dr. Eslami's assistant who is as attentive and personable as anyone could be. I have to say that Dr. Eslami is either incredibly skilled at hiring staff or the luckiest man in the profession. BTW: He is a really nice person with a positive outlook and very skilled at his profession. If you are seeking an endodontist, look no further. As a patient, I can testify this is as good as it gets with the added bonus of professionalism and kindness of all the staff. I even got a call from Jane the day after treatment asking how I was feeling. This is how it's done. Great job everyone! read more

Dr Eslami is a perfectionist! His background and training is second to none. All the staff are also welcoming, warm and friendly. From the moment I walked into his office, his kindness and compassion made me feel completely at ease. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a root canal! read more

I was referred to Dr. Lavasani by a general practice dentist who said I needed root canal on tooth#14. Because of its location and the intermittent nature of my symptoms, Dr. Lavasani did not "jump" to do the procedure. He spent a considerable amount of time with various diagnostic methods and advised me to monitor the tooth and return if the symptoms worsen. This is how medicine should be practiced: careful, caring, competent. read more

A pleasant surprise. I was initially hesitant to schedule an appointment for a root canal given that I was scared of how painful the procedure would be. But after meeting with the staff and doctor yashar my nerves were calm. They made sure I was comfortable from check-in to check-out. Also the procedure was actually short and pain free. I would definitely revisit the doctor again and totally recommend him A+ read more

I had a root canal done here, and Dr. Eslami and his lovely assistant Brooke took excellent care of me! I have a bit of a gag reflex and they were very gentle and patient with me during the procedure. I just recently had my 6-month follow up appointment and there were ZERO complications! I highly recommend their services if you're in the need of expert Dental care. read more

I had oral surgery done in June of this year. Dr Eslami did excellent job. He was very responsive to all my concern after the surgery. I was able to text him and he responded my message quickly. After 6 months of my oral surgery, i would need to follow up with him. I found out he had his own clinic. I searched for him on line and found his new clinic location. His new clinic is very clean and his staff Brook is very helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend Dr. Eslami to all my friends. read more

THE BEST!!! Dr. Lavasani was my favorite smile artist in MN before she moved to CA. She was informative but never gave me the 3rd degree about flossing. She has small agile hands that didn't mess up my gums. She always listened to my scaredy cat concerns and cared about what my experience was like while in her chair. There's something to be said for having the best dental care! read more

I rarely do reviews, but Dr. Sanaz compelled me to write one. She is by far the best doctor in town. A root canal Retreatment can be daunting but she made me feel at ease. She kept asking me how I was doing through the entire treatment, and of course I did fine because she was so gentle. I didn't even feel the injection on my gum. Cannot stress enough about how nice and caring she was to me. I'm glad to have found her . Also the clinic itself is so clean and relaxing. She has state of the art equipment which combined with her expertise make it the best treatment one can get. Thank you Dr. Sanaz Lavasani ! read more

Simply the best. I went there for re-treatment of the root canal. Although my dentist did not refer them directly, I went to them looking at the review comment. In my last two visits, they show their professionalism to the utmost. It starts from the reception desk to the dental chair. At each step, the made it sure that I did not have any pain. Dr. Lavasani is a perfectionist. She makes it sure that her work has no flaws. Then she says it is over. Then she calls for the follow up to make sure that there is no pain. It is a pleasant experience overall. read more

I took my mom to Dr. Lavasani for a root canal therapy on a lower tooth. She and her staff are super welcoming and the office looks spotless! Dr. Lavasani is very gentle and keeps checking on the patient to make sure patient is comfortable as opposed to some dentists who feel rushed and consequently could be insensitive. My mom had an amazing experience and found Dr. Lavasani to be very professional and warm. After this visit, I referred a friend of mine over who was seen by Dr. Eslami and she had the same fantastic experience. Bottom line, You won't be disappointed here! read more

I had an absolute great experience here! Dr Yashar is very experienced, professional, and patient. Kudos to Brooke and Amy for being so friendly, welcoming and, patient too. 10/10, would recommend it to anyone! read more
