I don't have enough nice things to say about Dr. Kang and his crew! I was sent over by Dr. Veigl as I needed a root canal, and I was frankly terrified until I felt totally safe and so numb in the expert Dr. Kang's magic hands. For a root canal, the process was quite efficient in three appointments: the first one was taking x-rays. I was also prescribed painkillers and antibiotics to preventatively mitigate any infection - didn't end up needing anything. Second appointment was actually cleaning up the canals and putting in a sedative in the tooth. This was such a painless process! The lovely assistant put a topical gel on my gum to numb it out, then I had a shot of anesthesia and then we were good to go. The whole procedure lasted about 50 min, with a few x-rays taken. Lastly, I was back a week later for a third appointment to remove the sedative and finish the root canal fully. Once again, not a thing felt. The tooth was tender for 48h after the procedure but it's now back to completely normal. Absolutely fantastic experience. read more

Excellent service and friendly staff. Dr. Kang was very professional. I could tell he had a lot of experience doing root canals. I was referred to Dr. Kang by my dentist who started a root canal on me but couldn't finish it because he didn't know what he was doing. Dr. Kang saw me right away. I literally walked from my dentist's office to Dr. Kang's office with my face still numb. Endondontics Seattle gets 5 stars in my book! read more

Dt. Lin and her staff are incredible! She did an amazing job on my root canal, and it didn't hurt at all. She even gave me a slice of cake afterward! :) I very highly recommend Dr. Lin and her office. It was also very quick to schedule an appointment, and the whole office was very sweet! read more

The entire staff at this office is really nice and professional! I had a good experience with my first root canal. I felt no pain or discomfort (which I was worried about!) Dr. Lin and the staff were so amazing at explaining every step to me that was going on and what exactly it was. They were very fast and efficient and they just know what they're doing and do it well! If I need another root canal I'll definitely come back here . Thank you! read more

This office is high tech and friendly and professional. They're up front about pricing and how insurance payments work. All in all I'm happy with my referral here. read more

Best in town for root canal. Very professional and friendly. Highly recommend Dr. Kang for root canal.

I'd been avoiding dentists for more than a decade. The need for an immediate root canal forced me back. My dentist recommended Dr. Lin. Dr. Lin saw me THAT DAY. The root canal was virtually painless. The pain that drove me to the dentist was resolved THAT DAY. The procedure required multiple visits between the work Dr. Lin had to do and some my primary dentists had to do. However, I can say that being Dr. Lin's patient was a pleasure - how's that for a turn around in attitude. A year later I unfortunately needed another root canal to resolve the last issue my decade of neglect led to. This time I didn't need urgent care but I got into see Dr. Lin that week. Again, the procedure was virtually painless. The issue was resolved that visit. Dr. Lin's technique seems precise, highly skilled, thorough, careful, compassionate, considerate, and a good value. I've found her to have a pleasant chair-side manner. Her offices were clean, comfortable, and professional. The facility I saw her at (509 Olive Way, Suite 1633) felt a bit small or arranged to provide privacy but certainly not concerningly so. Dr. Lin's staff were very competent and mirrored her high quality. I would go back to Dr. Lin and I recommend her. read more

I was referred to Dr Lin from my dentist for a root canal. After enduring a weekend of pain, I went in for my appointment. They squeezed me in the same day I called and everyone was really nice when I got there. The procedure was painless and went very smoothly. I could not be happier. I don't have insurance, so with money down I am able to make payments. As stressful as this can be, it went really well. I would recommend this office to anyone who needs endodontic work. read more

I was referred to Dr. Lin by my dentist. She scheduled me for the next day. She was very efficient -- got the job done quickly, with minimal discomfort. I'd go back with no hesitation, which, unfortunately I need to do for a second tooth. A root canal isn't something I would normally look forward to, but I least I can visit her office with confidence. read more

I was referred by my regular dentist to see Dr. Kang after I had some severe swelling after a root canal. I was greeted promptly and very politely by the receptionist--who actually confirmed my name because I was new (I feel like people don't do that anymore.). Then I was taken back to a room and was met by Dr. Kang in record time. He was very understanding regarding my situation. I couldn't really speak or swallow well because there was so much pressure from the swelling. I'm a bit of a weakling when it comes to needles and shots so the tech let me hold her hand while I got anesthetized. Dr. Kang kept saying he was "so sorry" for having to do this. He was extremely sympathetic. When it came time to drain the swollen area, he was quick and efficient. When I said that it still hurt, he took the time to get me a little more numb before continuing. He also numbed me after the procedure to keep me out of pain for a little longer, which was such a relief because I hadn't been pain-free for the last 10 days. This morning was the first time in a week in a half that I haven't woken up with debilitating pain! I'm so, so grateful for the professional work I had done at this office. read more

My wife recently needed some surgical work done on her teeth and our dentist recommended Endodontics Seattle. Although she had her reservations, her visit proved otherwise. Dr. Kang was very professional and provided great results. Also worth noting, we had some issues with our insurance company but with the help of the capable staff, it was quickly resolved. Thank you. read more

Dr. Kang and his staff were incredibly friendly made my root canal as painless as it could be. They were super attentive to my pain, and even thought my tooth was extra sensitive they reapplied and monitored my discomfort the whole time. What might have been two sittings was accomplished in the one visit, and I could tell that Dr. Kang was professional and thorough, but also laid back enough to joke and talk to keep my anxiety in check. No one wants a root canal, but this would be a great place to go if you need one! read more

Dental work is never fun, but Dr. Lin and her staff gave me the best experience I could have ever asked for. If I ever need another root canal, I will for sure go back to Dr. Lin's office. read more

I was pleased with my experience from beginning to end. I broke my tooth and was in a lot of pain, they got me in on the same day! My appointment lasted only about 45 minutes and was finished in one visit. It was pain free, the one time I did feel pain Dr. Kang stopped immediately and got me more numb. His entire staff was very helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and kind. If I ever need a root canal again, this is the only place I'd go. Thank you so much for the easy dental experience! read more

If I could rate this in diamonds i would bc they sparkle by far than stars! My experience from Dr. Lin's office was above and beyond my expectations. Everyone knows when u have a root canal- PAINFUL. I was a little upset after hearing from my regular dentist it would take 3 weeks to find out with my insurance if I can be seen. Absolutely not! I googled and found Dr. Lin's office and called 3 other offices. All 3 responded but Elizabeth from Dr. Lin's office called me first thing in the morning and I called back asap! They knew I was in pain and accompanied me the very same morning. I felt so relief. I arrived and again felt the warmth from Elizabeth which had handled my insurance within mins rather than 3 weeks. Kim is another fabulous dental asst, she lowered my anxiety by talking to me and made me feel more comfortable. Then came Dr. Lin within minutes:). How often do you go to your dental office and gives you detail information about what will happen today with your visit?? answer: this amazing TEAM does it all! Dr. Lin is super knowledgable and super sweet:) There was never a time where she rushed or made me feel rushed. They are all "whipper-snappers"!! My second appt was even more by far spectacular, I felt the care that I need and then some! All in all, the flow that Dr. Lin and her staff has made me feel validated as a patient and as a human-being which I personally highly recommend to everyone! Thank you Elizabeth, Kim and hats off to Dr. Lin from start to finish! "your the best!" read more

Is it possible to say "best root canal ever"? Kristine Yoon Lin was personable and friendly, but when it came down to the work, extremely professional while still showing concern about my comfort. I trusted her through the whole procedure (two visits). Prefer not to have another root canal, sure, but will go to her again if I have to. read more

Dr. Lin and staff took the pain away. One of their lovely staff members (amber) did everything to get me in for an emergency root canal. For a procedure that should be painful, it was easy and fast. Dr. Lin is professional and the staff is warm and inviting. Hopefully I will not have to go back to soon but if I do I know where I'm going read more

I saw Dr. Lin for my appointment yesterday and was AMAZED by how wonderful everything was. I went in for a root canal procedure on a molar that I had been neglecting for a long time which had become infected. After looking at the x-rays, Dr. Lin saw that I actually needed TWO root canals, on the infected tooth and on the one in front of it. A terrifying thing for someone who has never even had one before. I had heard all of the horror stories and was panicking. Dr. Lin and her staff were nothing short of astounding. After the initial needle injections for the Novocaine, I didn't feel a thing. She knows exactly where and how to inject the nerves to ensure the patient is completely at ease. She and her staff were also incredibly pleasant and made sure I knew what I was being billed and what I would be charged before the procedure even took place (a thing I greatly appreciated). I felt absolutely nothing during the procedure and even if I did feel a slight twinge, Dr. Linn made sure to add some more anesthesia to the area. Even after my procedure, I have only felt a little sore and haven't had any issues. I've been raving about her ever since. Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Kang has performed two root canals on me and I think he is great. These are the kind of dentists you want to perform root canals because this is their specialty. He takes time to numb me and is respectful and caring about the fact that I can't tolerate certain numbing medications. He works fast and gets your procedure done so you can get on with your life. They are flexible in their scheduling and can often start the procedure on the same day as your consultation. Dr Kang is easily reachable, with his cell phone # given to all patients. His front desk staff is super nice (I love Brittany) and they are up front and transparent about pricing. This office makes an unpleasant procedure as easy and painless as possible. read more

Another great root canal! I have been to Dr Lin twice, and both times had the best experience. Dr Lin and her staff make you feel so relaxed and well cared for. I come from Maple Valley and will continue to make the drive anytime I need endodontic care. I truly cannot imagine going anywhere else. read more

They billed my insurance for a cosmetic procedure after they told me that the insurance would not cover and received a full payment upfront. They also billed the insurance for an unnecessary procedure. The accounting staff is ready to fight with you when you question about charges, and they blame you for not asking about the charge prior to the treatment as if we didn't. read more

Root canals are usually no fun whatsoever. But I have now had three with Dr. Lin, and all have been stress free, pain free, quick - and about as close to fun as a dental procedure could be. She is the best. Her assistants are always great - helpful, calming, and really, really good at what they do. And the office staff is welcoming and friendly, too. I highly recommend Dr. Lin. Seriously. No, really. read more

I recently had a traumatic front tooth injury and not only needed a root canal, but internal bleaching treatment as well, since my tooth had turned dark purple due to a broken blood vessel. The root canal was quick and painless, and I'm pretty sure after the bleaching, my tooth now looks better than it did before my injury. I can't even begin to describe how happy I am with the outcome of the treatment there. Dr. Kang and his whole staff are incredibly friendly and true professionals. They made me feel at ease throughout the whole process and I am truly thankful that I decided to come there to repair my tooth. I hope I don't ever need anymore work like that done, but if I do, I am 100% returning to them and will continue to recommend them to anyone who needs work done. Thank you so much for giving me my smile back! read more

Really smart, professional assessment of tooth pain, with excellent teaching and follow-up. Very personable and a good communicator. Last month, I had a sudden onset of awful stabbing tooth pain, sensitive to hot, cold, and pressure. This was bad pain--and I've had 2 unmedicated births. My dentist figured I needed a root canal, so sent me to a DIFFERENT endodontist (not Dr. Lin) who agreed that I needed a root canal, but whose office was not great at Universal Precautions (aka handwashing), so I checked Yelp for other options. SO happy that I did. Along with excellent handwashing in this office (I'm a nurse and maybe a tiny bit OCD about this), Dr. Lin noticed that a filling that had been replaced a few months ago was a little high, and asked whether I had been clenching my teeth lately. I had not noticed that I was, but was under some stress and with sore jaw muscles, so I realized that this was indeed the case. She shaved off a little of the filling, prescribed extra-fluoride toothpaste, and suggested I wait a couple of weeks to see whether the pain improved. She also sent me home with a prescription for pain meds and antibiotics I could fill in case things got worse. I initially doubted this would work, but my pain is so much better now! Without a root canal! She called a couple of weeks later to check in with me and see whether this conservative management had worked. I'm very happy to go back to my regular dentist with my teeth and roots intact, and not needing recovery and a crown and everything that comes along with a root canal. Such a great experience at Endodontics Seattle, I will definitely go back there if needed and tell all my friends about this fantastic endodontist. read more

I went to Dr. Lin for a root canal this week and I had no anesthesia or nitrous. She was fast, professional and personable. If one must have a root canal, you can't go wrong with Dr. Lin and her staff. read more
