I highly recommend Dr. Wesley Citron (Vienna, VA) if you need a root canal. Seeing the dentist and having mouth work done is pretty much at the top of my HATE list. This past week I had a dreaded root canal procedure done by Dr. Citron and his terrific assistant, Ashley. They and their team made my experience very positive! I was greeted by the very efficient and calm receptionist. Even the exam room was welcoming, with several pictures hanging on the ceiling and there was also a huge computer screen directly in front of my exam chair which had an inviting screensaver and which transitioned into a display of all my x-rays when Dr. C came in the room. And within reach was a box of tissues for my trepidacious tears of fear prior to the procedure. 70s/80s music was softly played throughout the office. I brought my own headphones and music which I happily used. After numerous X-rays (one of which was interactive on display, showing where all the problems were from various angles) and several numbing shots in my mouth which were 99% painless because Dr. C placed them perfectly (I've had a couple of instances with past dentists who gave me so much Novocain I felt like I couldn't breathe.) I prefer knowing everything that's going to be done, and Dr. C detailed the procedure and answered all my questions using that really cool interactive X-ray. He was patient with my many questions and animated in his explanations but overall. he had a nice, calm aura. Throughout the procedure he and Ashley were very attentive to my comfort, gentle in their manner, and very focused and professional, and Dr. C gave me to countdown to finish several times which I really appreciated! It was a much better experience than expected and the best I could have wished for!! Yes, I definitely very highly recommend Dr. Citron if you need a root canal! read more

Came here for a root canal, after the numbing I didn't feel any pain throughout the entire procedure. Was impressed with the high tech surgical microscope and 3D scan that was performed. Great experience from scheduling to follow up. read more

What an awesome dental practice! I was referred by my dentist and they got me in the same day and were able to complete the root canal at that appointment. I cannot say enough good things about the entire staff - from the front office receptionist that greeted us to the endodontic assistant to Dr. Sukys, everyone was kind, compassionate, caring and very patient. This was my first root canal, and I was pretty anxious. Their kindness and compassion put me at ease right away. Dr. Sukys was incredibly kind and caring and also was very efficient and careful doing my root canal. I cannot say enough good things about this practice. Getting a root canal is something you never want to have to do, but if/when you do, this is the place to have it done. They are amazing! read more

Dr. Citron and his team have gone above and beyond for me since the day I stepped foot into the office. From the quality of the work to his bedside manner, I couldn't ask for anything better in what would otherwise be a scary experience. I also love that he is in touch with my dentist and oral surgeon to check on the progress of my treatment plan. Thank you! Plus, does your Dr.'s office send flowers to check up on your recovery? read more

Dr. Karen Zargar and the assistant and all of the staff here are wonderful and extremely helpful. I had an emergency and needed to get a quick root canal. I called on Wednesday afternoon and they were able to get me in the following Friday, just two days later. They were very nice, explained the fees for cash only, no insurance and then I was able to get a discount plan that I purchased later that afternoon from a third party website with dental plans. I was able to use that plan to get a significant discount on the price of the root canal. On the day of the root canal, I received a call from the office about an hour before I was planning to leave. They called to ask if I could come in early as they were running early. That is very nice of the office to do and I wasn't expecting it, but it allowed me to get in and for them to get started early. I was surprised when Dr. Zargar indicated that the root canal and temporary filling would all get finished in one visit. I'm not sure if that is the norm or if that was what they were able to do for me. Most of my previous root canals took at least two visits, if not more depending on the tooth. If it is the norm, then it is wonderful. Everything about my visit here was wonderful and I will definitely return to this practice for any future root canal while living in the area. Highly recommend a call to schedule your root canal if you are looking for true experts in the field. read more

When I returned home after my emergency root canal with Dr. Citron, I texted my children: "Man, am I glad Wes Citron followed in his father's footsteps! Hard to call a root canal fabulous, but it pretty much was. I'm home and so grateful." I so appreciated Dr. Wes Citron's explanations, expertise, presence--and he is supported by fabulous staff. As a previous reviewer said, his work to get infection out of my body can only "add pep to my step"! Thank you, Vienna Endodontics! read more

If you ever need a root canal, I highly recommend wonderful Dr. Citron and his excellent staff at Vienna Endodontics. First-rate professionals with top-notch equipment and skills. I was very impressed that the first thing they did was 3-D imaging to help determine whether or not a root canal was likely to work. They all helped me feel comfortable by carefully explaining everything they were doing. They are simply extremely kind, caring, and highly skilled professionals. There was absolutely no pain during the procedure. I was a little sore afterwards, but two hours and two Tylenol later, even that was gone. Yea! I should also add that lately I had been feeling a little under the weather. I couldn't figure out what was going on. I now think it might well have been the infection in that tooth. After Dr. Citron's procedure, I now, once again, have pep in my step. American lore has it wrong. It's not: "You should never get a root canal." It's: "You should never need a root canal. But if you do, you should sure get it, 'cause that's what makes the pain go away!" And I recommend you get it from Dr. Citron. read more

I had a root canal with Dr. Citron yesterday and felt mild discomfort then (I'm taking Motrin) and very little pain today. He was patient and methodical and took care to save the tooth and do a thorough job. A few months ago I had a bad root canal on a different tooth with a different doctor. Everything Dr. Citron did yesterday was in vast contrast to my earlier experience this past winter where the pain never ended until I finally had that tooth extracted to be done with it. Dr. Citron's attention to every detail and his up-to-date technology made this root canal a breeze. His dental assistant was excellent as well. Thank you for doing a great job, Dr.Citron. read more

Had a fantastic experience with Dr. Citron during a recent root canal. Hard to term a dental procedure "enjoyable", but everything about the process was done quickly, professionally and effectively. Would definitely recommend to anyone considering a similar procedure. read more

Had an outstanding experience. I had to have an emergency root canal and they saw me the same day that my regular dentist referred me.Dr. Zargar and her team were so professional, friendly, and kept me informed throughout the process. It was painless compared to the horror stories I had heard from other's. I also appreciated their Covid-19 protocols which made me feel extra safe! read more

I'm generally a wimp but these folks were great. They explained what they planned on doing and how long it would take each step of the way.

Fantastic office from top to bottom. Dr Citron has excellent "bedside manner" and explains everything. Very friendly and competent staff. They were able to take me on very short notice and relieve my pain!! read more

Such a wonderful practice, professional staff and Dr. Citron is THE BEST! Highly knowledgeable, caring, and thorough. I most highly recommend this practice. read more

They gave me a price for my procedure, which was after my insurance coverage which was about $200. Over 3 months later they send me a bill for almost $850!!!! They told me they had 'problems' filing my claim and that since it took too long the amount my insurance company covered had gone down. TOTALLY THEIR FAULT FOR NOT FILING THINGS ON TIME!!! So here I am stuck with that bill which I'm paying. (in case you are wondering, the 'problem' was that they didnt know the date of my previous dentist visit, which is bullshit because the lady in the front desk asked me and I told her..she probably just never wrote it down) On top of that when I went back to my general dentist, and after the xrays he told me they haven't really done a good job and that I pretty much just wasted over $1000 for nothing. WORST, EVER! I get mad everytime I send them a payment..grrrr lol read more

I am writing this review because I was shocked to see this rating! But then I saw it was over money, which is not a good reason to put down someones office, so I have to write about my experience. I have to start off by saying I am in the dental field, so when I needed a root canal procedure, I knew the best place to go. I chose this office because I KNOW about dentistry, and I knew where to get the BEST treatment. Not only was I extremely comfortable during the procedure, but the work was fabulous. The doctor and his assistant Ashley made me feel very comfortable. It has been months now since the procedure, and I am happy as a clam! If you are in need of treatment, and see Dr. Wesley, rest assure you are in the best hands! read more

Having a root canal is unpleasant. If you don't and the tooth develops an abscess, you are in for a world of pain. I went to see Dr. Citron due to my dentist's recommendation. His professional care, knowledge, kindness, time, especially new equipment saw that I needed a three part root canal for a large molar. The tooth was out of pain when I left his office. I am very grateful to the kindnesses of both Dr. Citron and his staff. He is my go to endodontist. I highly recommend Dr. Citron. read more

I visited Vienna Endodontics as an emergency while visiting friends in the fairfax area. I was highly recommended to them and not being from the area Im so impressed. I don't review often. I walked in and was treated so kindly by Dr Wesley Citron. He took an X-ray and CBCT scan. (Very state of the art machine!!) anyway, turns out I had a major infected root canal. I was treated professionally, gently and I am very satisfied. I wish we had dental care like this in Florida!!! Thanks to Dr. Wesley Citron for helping me in such short notice. read more

I can't say enough about Vienna Endodontic! From the moment I arrived on my first visit, they took care of me. Dr. Citron's entire staff was observant to all of me needs and concerns. This was no easy feat during Covid 19. I appreciate the time and care that they took explaining everything. When I went back for my actual procedure, he along with his assistant were so calming and reassured me on everything. Thanks so much for everything!! read more

Dr Zargar is an angel; you just can't see her wings. I had a root canal this am and fell asleep in the chair. She is exceedingly competent and her bed side manner is second to none. Everyone in the office was lovely. Soothing environment. Great Location. Don't hesitate to call them. read more

**PLEASE NOTE** - This review is not for Dr. Citron but rather a dentist who very recently joined his practice. Will update with her name soon... So....anyone who knows me knows that I have a deep rooted fear of the dentist and for legitimate reasons. I had a terrible experience with a rough dentist who was agitated about something else and cause some major and expensive damage in my mouth! Aside from the fact that the sound of those drills just freak me out, I put off going until the last minute. However, after a recent cleaning at my new dentist (who is amazeballs BTW), I needed to visit this practice for root canal. UGH! There goes my weekend and I am going to be in dire need of some strong pain meds. Boy was I wrong! I called on a Thursday after lunch and they told me they could see me immediately. Since I needed to do something really important and knew I would be in Vienna the very next day, they scheduled me for the next afternoon. I walked in and received a very warm greeting by the team. They took care of me right away and once again confirmed my price that was initially quoted on the phone. The DMD came in and reviewed the x-rays. I forewarned her that I have had to have up to 9 shots of novocaine in the past. She said don't worry, I'm a pro...and she was right! She said they must not be really paying attention to where my nerves were. She was so patience and gentle and basically delivered the novocaine drop by drop to avoid bruising the top of my mouth too much. It look one needle and we were good to go! Even with their warm care I found myself shaking from my nerves. But then they put on the world's best music mix of Elton John, John Lennon and the Beatles!! Yes!! I started humming and instantly started to relax. It had been an exceptionally rough week and I got no sleep at all. Somehow, I, Tisha B., with the world's biggest fear of dentist, found myself not only asleep but snoring in her chair hahaha. I woke up and said "Umm...was I sleep"? Everyone laughed and said Yup lol. I could not believe it! The best part was she got all three of my roots in one setting so there was no need to come back for a 2nd and 3rd visit. She checked me out, ran the additional xrays and I received my prescriptions. I felt great and even though I knew the novocaine was going to wear off, I decided to see how my pain was before taking any meds. To my surprise, I didn't need any at all!! She said the pain comes from the dentist being rough in our mouth and causing bruising. Which means for me to be basically pain free in a matter of hours, she was very gentle. Hopefully, I won't need to be back but if I do, I know exactly where to go! I truly appreciate this team being so gentle with me and not making me feel like a weirdo! read more

Dr. Wesley Citron is definitely one of a kind. I called him after hours for an emergency and he spent over half an hour on the phone with me. He is patient and takes time explaining everything to you. He is kind and I would highly recommend him! read more

Dr. Wesley is that rare combination of top-notch root canal specialist, brilliant scientist and bass trombone champion all rolled into one! He brings tremendous energy, passion, rigor, empathy and dedication to his work. Performed highly complex procedure that involves C shaped root canal on crowned second molar in less than two hrs - the work that two other highly credentialed dentists deferred given the intricate morphology of the root canal in question. With his keen, alert and open mind, Dr. Wes was relentless in his approach to fix the issue. By utilizing the latest state of the art 3D technology, he was able to detect and treat additional areas of impact that were otherwise not observable on traditional x-ray. I would strongly recommend him for any dental work. You will experience first hand the great work of root canal guru (w/ zero pain btw) and be inspired by whimsical nature wall art while listening to relaxing classical music in a fantastic office atmosphere with wonderful and welcoming staff. read more

I had a root canal with Dr. Albert Citron, Vienna VA on July 2010. He charged me 2200 for a one hour of work. 2000 to pay right away and 200 on another additional bill 1 month later. The same procedure that I paid only 900 dollar 6 year ago. The average root canal is from 600- 1000 now. When I received the bill, I wrote a letter to explain to him that I had quit my job to have medical treatment and I am not qualified for any SSI disability or Unemployment compensation. I lived on my saving, and 2200 dollar is overcharged. He dropped 200 dollar on the additional bill. Now the root canal that he performed failed again. I called several endodontists to check the price before I see them. The price is around 800-1200 current. If including inflation factor, he charged a patient with difficult financial situation 3 times the average price. This contradicts to his mission statement !!! read more

Having called early in the morning complaining of extreme pain, I was able to have the root canal within a few hours. Thank you to the staff for being excellent communicators during the procedure. Can't say enough about the superb care I received by Dr. Wesley Citron and his assistant and am pleased to recommend Vienna Endodontics to others! read more

Dr Wesley Citron was so nice, and explained the process , so that I understood it: he did not talk over my head, like some doctors do. His support staff is exceptional!! The are all very kind and educated. I trusted everyone that I encountered. This office sets the bar very high for other doctors and other businesses. Very happy!! read more

After a recent visit to my dentist I was told that I should see an endodontist for a possible root canal. Not satisfied with my dentist's referral, I opted to find my own endodontist. I found Dr. Citron on the internet. After looking at his website and reading some of the reviews I decided to give his office a call. The receptionist was professional and friendly and made an appointment for me. During my first visit I was pleased with the warm welcome I received. The staff was warm, professional and friendly. The receptionist was pleasant and knowledgeable. She was able to answer all of my questions regarding insurance coverage. Dr. Citron's assistant was informative and wonderful at helping me relax. Dr. Citron himself was great. After x-rays and other tests he was able to explain what was going on with my tooth. He told me I had an infection that required antibiotics before he would be able to do the root canal. On my way out I scheduled the appointment for the root canal. A couple of hours before my scheduled appointment, the receptionist phoned to tell me Dr. Citron might be running a little behind and there was a possibility my appointment might be delayed by 20 minutes. She asked if this was a problem for me and when I said no she told me she would call by a certain time to let me know so I did not leave work any earlier than necessary. I really appreciated that they respected my time and took the time to phone me. As it turns out my appointment was on time. When I arrived the staff was once again wonderful. Dr. Citron spent time up front telling me what he was going to do. He took his time and asked if I had any questions. During the procedure he explained what he was doing and explained the sounds of the different equipment as he performed the root canal. I really liked being prepared for the various sounds and appreciated Dr. Citron telling me what he was doing during the procedure. He also asked about my comfort. I did not feel a thing and in fact relaxed in the chair, which is something no other dentist has ever been able to do. I will return to this office in the future if I ever need another root canal. Great office, great staff. Thank you! read more
