Dr. Cottle took the time to explain everything very thoroughly, answer any and all questions that I had, and really put my dental stress at ease. But, more importantly, when I had the root canal done, I can honestly say that it was the least stressful procedure that I've had done at a dental office in over 40 years. The instruments that he used were extremely quiet, he didn't rush through anything or make me feel like I was keeping him from his next patient, and I just felt like he had some of the gentlest hands while he was doing all of the work. I literally started dozing off a couple of times in the chair, and that was with no nitrous. Although no dental experience that I've ever had has been enjoyable, this one was easily the least unpleasant. Oh, and even though they don't take dental insurance, they filled out the reimbursement forms for my insurer and submitted them for me while I was there. Recommend highly!!

But as I was leaving, the office staff whispered to me that the BEST in Raleigh was Dr. Stancill on Lake Boone Trail. I immediately called and gave them a heads up that I am a complete terrified baby at the dentist. That I needed a root canal drilled thru a porcelain crown, hopefully without breaking it because I couldnt afford another, and I can't deal with pain. Their team was soooo comforting the minute I walked in, Dr. Stancill was amazing, his staff sat and even held my hand and distracted me while he worked (lmao...such a baby)...and he was literally done during the time I thought he was just doing prep work. I couldn't believe it when he told me it was over. I didn't feel a thing, my mouth never swelled up, I went home that night with no further issues. I was in shock. I immediately recommended Dr. Stancill to a coworker who was as chicken as I was and had been putting off a root canal. He also got an appointment quickly, and was back to work the next day, same result. No pain. Dr. Stancill has the latest equipment. He is so smooth. I'm not looking forward to ever having a root canal again, but if I do...I'm calling Dr. Robert Stancill 100%. This man is brilliant and pain free.

I have been a long-term patient at Riccobene, but my recent visit for a tooth extraction and bridge…read morefitting was deeply concerning. While the dentist who performed the extraction was professional and efficient, the subsequent care provided by the dental assistant was unacceptable. The assistant struggled significantly with the impressions, requiring three painful attempts that left my mouth raw and sore. Furthermore, she fabricated a temporary bridge that was bulky and ill-fitting, then proceeded to cement it without the Doctors authorization. The doctor eventually had to intervene to remove and fix the work. Which meant more unnecessary work had to be done. This lack of technical proficiency resulted in an unnecessarily long and "borderline traumatizing" appointment. I strongly feel this assistant requires further training before performing these procedures on patients again! However, the front desk staff is super sweet and nice. I enjoyed Stacy and all the knowledge she provided me to have a great experience!

I had been a patient of hers several years ago and this is why I came back. I called on a Tuesday morning because my tooth pain was getting worse and worse. My regular dentist (who I should but won't name) kinda shrugged if off. He sent me on my way with a tube of Sensodyne. I was in luck that there was a cancellation and I went to Dr Bills office right away. It's a super convenient Cary location. All of her staff is super warm and caring. She even has a therapy dog on staff !!! She numbed me up really well and the procedure was painless. She and her assistant chat the entire time so that really keeps your mind off of what is going on in your mouth. I would so HIGHLY recommend Dr Bills and her staff. A root canal isn't really that bad.

When it came time for the exam and I explained that I was interested in the in-office whitening, the dentist was very negative about it with not wanting to set a date for an appointment because they would have to schedule it when they had sufficient office staff and that wouldn't be possible for several weeks. I think they are going through a merge/buy out situation??? it is all very weird. I have never dealt with a company that advertises that they offer something then don't want to schedule it.

I recently had a root canal done by Dr. Alessandra Ritter. (I learned about her when my wife was…read morereferred to her by my wife's own endodontist for a particular delicate and unusual problem. Dr. Ritter literally is the endodontist whom other endodontists think of when it comes to problems they find daunting.) I've had probably 7 root canals over the last 50 years - twice I had to have them redone, mostly due to endodontists overlooking small branch canals in my teeth - an out-of-the-ordinary multiplicity of canals - leaving some nerve tissue untreated in that one such small branch canal to later develop into an abscess.Rather than wait for problems to develop, I went directly to Dr. Ritter to avoid the problems in the first place. Dr. Ritter has the newest in diagnostic equipment and the best in treatment technology and technique. Her staff is well-trained and more than competent, and alert to patient concerns: They listen and engage. The office itself is well-appointed, artfully (but not ostentatiously) designed, modern yet traditional, and of obviously quality materials and workmanship. The ambiance reflects the solid competence and fundamental artistry of the people working there. In my recent visit to her office (the first was several years ago for a root canal on another tooth), she shows great confidence in her practice, arriving quickly (but not hurriedly) at well-considered solution to an unexpected issue - with me, some significant decay hidden from X-ray by the old, old crown on that particular tooth. She removed the decay, rebuilt the tooth, and performed the root canal. In a week or so, my regular dentist will fit it for a new crown. The procedure was done with alacrity but not speed. Dr. Ritter is in-network to some dental insurers, and works out-of-network for a moderate premium Some people have complained that her pricing is on the high end. Perhaps that is due to her use of some of the newest technology, technology not accepted by insurance companies (CT scan, laser treatments, for example.). So, perhaps the final charges may be more than at some other endodontist. I can only say that, "You get what you pay for." Root canals involved delicately articulated dental structures, and the more complete and detailed the view is of those structures, the better able the dentist will be to deal with problems. That's a pretty simple concept. (I think it's worth the added expense.) My few bad experiences with other endodontists were due entirely to their not having a clear picture of what was going on with my teeth. The subsequent cost of redoing faulty root canals (two separate occasions on two separate teeth), plus treatment by an oral surgeon for one of them - that cost more than covered any premium I would have paid Dr Ritter in the first place, several times over. My rating for Dr. Ritter here is unsurprisingly 5/5. If I could, I'd giver her a 6 out of 5, maybe a 7 out of 5. I wouldn't dream of having someone else perform the delicate operations needed for my teeth. PS I'm 76 years old. As we age, dental issues become more prevalent, complicated by the wear-and-tear of many decades of use and the lost vitality bone mass. In my opinion, the need for more specialized treatment becomes greater simply because I'm older - that is, I'm old - now.

Dr. Ritter and Rebecca were absolutely incredible! They treated me with the utmost respect,…read morecompassion, and kindness from start to finish. I was in miserable pain, and despite their very busy schedule, they went out of their way to squeeze me in and get me treated as quickly as possible. They are absolute angels! My entire visit took less than an hour, and the root canal itself was remarkably quick and completely painless. I am naturally very tolerant of topical anesthetics, but under Dr. Ritter's care, I felt zero pain throughout the entire procedure. Once the anesthetic wore off, I felt like a million bucks! I didn't even need to take ibuprofen, steroids, or opioids afterward. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this practice. Dr. Ritter and Rebecca are not only exceptional at what they do, but they also genuinely care about their patients. Their professionalism, compassion, and willingness to help someone in pain truly set them apart. This is an amazing practice that deserves all the recognition it can get! Thank you, Dr. Ritter and Rebecca, for taking such incredible care of me. I am beyond grateful and would recommend Ritter Endodontics to anyone who needs endodontic care!
