Though I had a root canal done in June, something went wrong so I had to get it redone. I chose to…read morecome to ARCS because of the great reviews online. They were able to get me in the very next morning! I was very nervous because my first RC was so unpleasant. Farzaneh, the assistant, was so friendly and gentle. Dr. Jureidini was so thorough - waiting to get records from my two previous dental offices (we'd just moved) and it couldn't have been a better experience. The attention to the patient, waiting for records so he could take the least invasive approach - was so comforting and honest.

The first word that I think of is WOW! I had an appointment…read moreon Wednesday with my regular dentist, who told me I needed an emergency root canal. I called Advanced Root Canal Specialists, and they asked me how quickly I could get there--the dentist would wait. I was an hour away, and it was approximately 3:30 pm. I arrived around 4:40, which isn't too bad during rush hour. When I walked in, I felt like I was at a spa. The room was gorgeous, with a fireplace going for ambiance. (No heat was emitted, as it was 102° F outside). Two very kind and helpful ladies greeted me and offered me something to drink. I chose tea, since they had various types of calming tea. Afterall, I was getting a root canal, and no one likes going to the dentist. I waited about 10 minutes before I was taken back to a room. Tamara and Dr. Fakhari were amazing. I told them prior to beginning that I am not a fan of the Novocain needle. Tamara put dark sunglasses on me, due to the bright lights; gave me a weighted blanket; and offered me headphones to listen to music. All the while, Dr. Fakhari was giving me a needle that I felt, but in a gentle way. He spoke and joked with me while the Novocain took effect. Then, he gave me a second needle to numb the rest of my mouth. I realized it and said, "I see what you did there." He chuckled, "I didn't do anything," and then, smirked. It was the best experience I have had with the painful part of any dental procedure. Dr. Fakhari told me up front that I have a crack in my tooth, and he may not be able to save it. While it was not news I wanted to hear, I appreciated the transparency and honesty. After what seemed like a few minutes, Tamara took the headphones off of my ears. (I was on the fourth song of the playlist). I was waiting for the news that Dr. Fakhari couldn't save my tooth. Instead, he said, "All done. Not so bad." I couldn't believe it was over. He gave me care instructions, and I left--at 5:45 pm. Wow! I hope I don't need a root canal again in the future, but if I do, I will definitely be calling Dr. Fakhari.

There are exactly ZERO instances where you want to visit a root canal specialist but, if you find…read moreyourself in such a scenario, ARCS is where you should land. After being in pain all weekend, I made an emergency dentist appointment that resulted in a referral to ARCS. The office offered to call for me and I was told I could come right then. For context, my dentist appointment was at 3:20pm and roughly by 3:40pm I was headed to ARCS. The office is clean and the front desk staff were helpful and professional. I overheard one team member speaking to another patient in Spanish so it's nice to know the environment is accessible and inclusive in this regard as well. I was called back after a short wait and X-rays were taken. Dr. Fakhari then arrived to perform some tests (these suck but are necessary to confirm a root canal is the right treatment) but before the test began he spent time speaking with me and had, quite possibly, the most pleasant, patient, and caring demeanor of any endodontist I've ever met (yes, unfortunately I have seen down this road more than once). When I was weeping during the numbing process, the aide whose name I believe was Alyssa, kindly comforted me, provided tissues, etc. Dr. Fakhari also took things very slow and checked in often. They were both very reassuring. I don't think it's possible to enjoy anything about a root canal so the fact that every other aspect of the experience is positive (including noise canceling headphones, a blanket, and Spotify) means so much. I'd very much love to never need to visit ARCS again but I'm nonetheless very grateful for their immediate availability, kindness, and professionalism across the board.

At every point, they went the extra mile to ensure that I'm comfortable, addressed my concerns, and answered all of my questions. They went above and beyond in making me feel truly valued. The seasoned team at Colesville Dentistry took the time to examine the photos and made reasonable recommendations based on their review. They explained the purpose of each recommendation. No gimmicks. No sales pitch. Everything was reasonably priced. After my 1st visit, I just knew I made the right decision in switching to Colesville Dentistry. I especially enjoyed having a TV screen above the dental chair with beautiful scenes of Tropical islands to look at while they were working. I look forward to coming back for my regular checkup and will definitely recommend them to all my friends and family. Thank you Colesville Dentistry

When I lived in Wheaton, which was a lot closer to downtown Silver Spring, I still always wrote/typed Wheaton, MD 20902. I had a dentist when I live in Wheaton that was less than a mile away, and she was good, and it's a hassle finding a new dentist. I moved to Russett in 2020, and I kept going all the way back to Wheaton for my dentist through 2023. My girlfriend recommended her dentist Colesville Dentistry, and she was right! I first arrived here in May 2024, then November 2024, & most recently May 2025. Wow, this dentist is top notch, blows the Wheaton dentist I had out of the water. The staff is friendly, efficiently gets you in. Dr. Chai, other dentists, & technicians have been friendly doing a great job with the cleanings as well as advise on better dental habits. Also, this is a state of the art dental office. When you are lying on the dental chair, there is a TV screen above you with high definition nature scenes which is peaceful when the dentist isn't exactly the most pleasant experience even with Colesville Dentistry being the best case scenario goes as far as the dentist goes. They have great technology with computer modeling of my teeth & more, which the prior dentist I had fell short. Although it's still not super close to my home, still easier than going to Wheaton and worth the drive. Overall, I highly recommend Colesville Dentistry.

Dr. Burton and his staff are fantastic!…read more My dentist that I was seeing could not find the source of tooth pain so I contacted Dr. Burton's office on my own accord based on reviews I have read. Within 10 minutes he diagnosed the pain and outlined a plan to cure it. Due to some anxiety about dental work in general, it took me 2 visits to complete the procedure and for the record, my anxiety was worse than the procedure itself. He and his staff are very understanding, courteous and before, after and during the procedure you remain with a sense that they do care about you and your health and they listen and address your concerns as a patient. Hopefully, I will never need another root canal or endodontist procedure but If I do I will be seeing Dr. Burton again with much less anxiety than I had before my procedure. Thanks Dr. Burton and Team.

I should have left and not come back right then. Their equipment was outdated. Dr Young's first language is not English so communication was not great. Even though my appointment was for an evaluation they told me after the xrays she had no time to look at the xrays, she would call me instead. The charge for the xrays was $1000 and I never got to see them or have them explained. Young called me but she was totally confused about which teeth she was supposed to look at. She made no sense. She blamed me for telling her the wrong teeth which was a bold faced lie. The teeth were marked on the sheet from the general dentist with the numbers, plus I pointed to them. This girl Young is a theif and a fraud. I flushed $1000 down the toilet and she is not qualified to do an evaluation, and I am still in pain. DO NOT go here under any circumstance. I would like to add that the dentist chair was DISGUSTING with a large deep slash all the way up the center. The problem is, sometimes when your are in pain, you stay when you should run out the door. The "dentist" needs to google what happens when a practitioner threatens someone for posting a truthful review. Doll, I'm so so scared! Too bad you have to THREATEN people to get good reviews. So pathetic. Looking at the way you treat people from other reviews, I am not surprised. A have a lawyer, so please please do sue me for libel. I will get my money back that I wasted there and more. That I promise you. Again, why don't you treat your patients right, and then you don't have to THREATEN them to get a good review. Ever think of that??? Of course not. Have a nice day:)

So I was late when I arrived in Frederick but they still fit me in and acted like it was no big deal that I messed up they schedule. Generally, after the root canal is finalized they send the patient back to their dentist to repair the crown. But due to a recent move from another state I no longer have a dentist. So they repaired the crown at no additional cost. I highly recommend this place.

Dr. Gamson is a true master at his craft and has always strived to make sure things are up to his standers before I leave even if that means making a couple adjustments to things. This to me shows a concern for the long term of his work instead of other place that are like a tooth mill in and out mentality. Dr. Gamson has gone above and beyond to listen to what is going on and really engages himself in the conversation to make sure he has all the information needed to then dip into he experience to implement a plan of action. He works very effectively and efficiently always checking in to make sure one is ok. His precision numbing is amazing and makes sure there is no pain during the visit. The best part of it all which is a strange to read in a review about root canals is he sense of humor and upbeat approach to his work. His joy and happiness permeate the space and you can tell that he really does care about the well being of others while still maintaining a professional relationship with others. I would definitely recommend Dr Gamson to anyone looking for someone who is knowledgeable, thorough and produces amazing work and you can count on all the while bringing joy and happiness and a lot of laughs to the experience.

I was a little scared because root canals have such a bad rep, but thankfully I was referred by my dentist to Dr. Gamson. I was seen promptly when I arrived and felt more relaxed in just a few minutes. Dr. Gamson is gifted - finding common interests to distract patients in a charming manner - and at the same time explaining what he is doing and what to expect. Also, it's clear he's a top notch expert when it comes to root canals. I had no pain during the procedure - just a bit of sting with the shots. The root canal immediately addressed the radiating pain. I was so relieved that an experience I expected to be horrible was not - and I enjoyed Dr. Gamson's charming chatter, which distracted me from my fears. The office staff was efficient and helped me understand the insurance coverage situation. Also, the office and treatment rooms have unique art displayed that I enjoyed learning about. Anyway, I'm going back soon as I suspect another tooth needs treatment...it's nice that I know I have no reason to worry.
