That one-hour drive has been 100% worth it ever since! They've handled several complex dental issues for me that other dentists struggled with--especially when it came to achieving outstanding cosmetic results. The work is always precise, natural-looking, and done with genuine care for both function and appearance. I've never felt rushed or like just another patient; they truly listen and tailor everything to what works best for me. The entire team is exceptional. Dr. Rosen is incredibly skilled, knowledgeable, and has a calm, reassuring manner that puts you at ease. Amanda and Jeanie are absolute standouts--warm, attentive, and so good at what they do.

This is my review on the place and my root canal experience here:…read more I got 2 root canals done here today. Both at the same time. Since the experience is fresh in my memory, I'll review it right away. It was easy getting to the offices. When you walk into the building, it's very obviously professional and clean. The Endodontic office is on the second floor of the building. You have the choice to take the elevator or the stairs located directly next to the elevator. When I got into the office, the two women at the reception desk were very nice and helpful. One of them explained the paperwork to me thoroughly I had a couple of questions about it when I was finished and she explained them both to the best of her knowledge. The ladies even complimented my leggings I had on lol. It was nice! When I was called into the appointment, the nurse was nice. She was a little quiet, but nice nonetheless. She showed me where I could hang my things and I sat on the dentist chair and waited for the endodontist. When the endodontist came into the room, he was very sweet. He introduced himself, his name is Joe Nencka. He had me explain the pain and problems I was having with my teeth and then proceeded to do a couple of tests on my teeth to determine my sensitivity I believe. When that was determined, he explained to me my options as far as my teeth being either removed or restored. He also explained my payment options. I chose getting a root canal on both of my teeth at the same time. I'm not going to say the experience was painless, because it most definitely was not. The first thing they did was numb my mouth, obviously. He put a topical on the outside of my gums and gave me an anesthetic shot. The big pain came when he gave me a shot on the roof of my mouth. The only other time I had this happen was when I had a tooth extracted years back and let me tell you, I do NOT remember it being this bad. There was extreme pressure. No pain, just pressure. When I thought I couldn't take any more pressure, there was more. I honest to god thought my teeth were going to pop out of my mouth. I wish I was exaggerating. I almost had to grab the dentists hand to make him stop. I had no idea what to do. It was miserable, and that was just the roof of the mouth shot! From what I can remember, the procedure was almost painless. First, they put a rubber sheet over my mouth to isolate the teeth and to prevent saliva and my tongue from getting into the teeth or getting in the way. My main concern with that wasn't going to be able to breathe since I mainly breathe from my mouth, but I did okay. After that, I had to get a couple more shots of anesthetic to help me out. For some reason I could still feel some of the procedure pretty well which was awful. I felt some of the drilling and when he cleaned the very end of the canal, but the dentist was very reassuring and applied more numbing when possible. I was being a bit of a b***h during the procedure, but I couldn't help it. It hurt! I remember them taking measurements of how long my canals were, also. During the procedure my jaw was absolutely killing me and the worst part about it is that you can't do a thing about it. They give you something called a "bite block" that you have to bite on with the other side of your mouth to hold your mouth open during the procedure, so moving your jaw, even a little, is impossible. Thankfully they let me take a break toward the end. There was a lot of pressure, pushing and pulling to clean the canals, vibration to open them, drilling, bad smell, noises, and pain. When they were filling the canals and teeth, he used a heat gun to seal it I believe. I felt the heat minimally and to be honest, it was kind of relaxing after all of that. When they were done, they sat me up and took some final x-rays to make sure everything was finished properly. When it was determined that it was, then they did the filling. When they took the bite block out and the guard off my teeth, I'd like to say it was a relief, and it was to an extent. All I could focus on though was the horrible pain in my jaw from having my mouth open for so long. But, the dentist gave me an ice pack that I got to keep which was nice and went over the x-rays with me and compared the ones he took in the beginning and he said the procedure went very well. He gave me a pain pill in the office and told me what to take for pain when I get home. He also told me what to do as far as my crowns and such. He made sure to go over everything with me. At the very end, I went through payment options with the receptionist since I was expecting to only get one root canal done today instead of both and only had enough money for one down payment She was very understanding and explained to me what would happen financially which I was fine with. I had a good experience here and definitely recommend them and Dr. Nencka!

Other endodontists on my insurance plan wanted me to wait over a month. I presented for a consultation regarding a redo of a root canal. The staff were courteous, professional and polite. The dental assist was skilled, very kind and gentle. Dr Sharma was one of the nicest people I have dealt with in a long time. Very knowledgeable, humble, incredible bedside manner. Although he could have recommended, and I really wanted, a redo of the root canal performed by a general dentist many years ago, Dr Sharma was very firm, polite and apologetic that a redo would almost certainly fail, clearly gave the reasons why, explained his reasoning thoroughly using CT and plain xray images. He then arranged for oral surgery consult in my region. I traveled over 100 mikes to see him and it was well worth the trip. I most highly recommend Dr Sharma.

I was told that if I didn't want to do the paperwork until the day of my appointment I'd need to arrive 30 minutes before my scheduled time. My appointment was at 7:30am which is the time the office opens so I'm not sure how that would have all worked out. In the end, doing the required paperwork in advance is for the patient's benefit and it's always nice to know cost up front for anything dental (at least I think so). As for the appointment, I have to say I was genuinely impressed with the office. It's an up-to-date facility in an unassuming office building. I was greeted by a calming waterfall when the elevator doors opened, a friendly receptionist offered me water and the bathroom even had essential oil spray. Oh and there was an aquarium in the waiting room! The equipment used for scans was all very clean and felt state of the art. I saw Dr. Zielinski. I found him to be knowledgeable and straight forward. I will say he talks a lot so if you see him be sure to ask your questions and even ask him to clarify terms if you need to. He was very helpful and answered all my questions and I never felt rushed which is important to me. In the end I don't need work done here but if I did I would feel comfortable moving forward.

Leaving a yelp review for a dentist seems weird, but I see there are others so... My family has…read morebeen very happy with Elmbrook Family Dental for 20+ years, starting when Dr. Brunner was just a kid! I recently completed a tooth implant process that took several months (remove 40-year old crown, bone graft, wait for that to heal, implant post, wait for that to heal, implant!). The whole process was about as painless as it could possibly be. One of the things I like best about Elmbrook Family Dental is that they explain things clearly -- throughout the process Dr. Plecas explained each step, what the options were, what he thought the best option would be, and why. Knowing about the bone graft was especially important to me, and seeing what the part of the implant would be and how it all went together was cool. I was initially concerned because my son's wedding was coming up, and I didn't want to have a big hole in my mouth for pictures. Dr. Plecas discussed options with me -- the full process wouldn't be complete before the wedding. If I wanted, we could have gotten a temporary fake tooth there, but he thought I should wait and see how it looked. Once the tooth was removed I found that the space wasn't very noticeable at all. I'm very glad that I didn't spend the extra money on a temporary tooth! It feels like we know everyone there - we've been there for years, and at times we had six family members going. My older kids only stopped going there when they totally left the area; while they were in college out of state they still went to Elmbrook Family Dental, scheduling appointments around their breaks. One of the other things I like about Elmbrook Family Dental is that they keep up with processes, technology, and materials.

It's a hard sell for TMJ services with every appointment. Cost for TMJ services: Assessment $650 and treatment $5400-6500 (services weren't clarified) with payment required upfront. He says he uses a third-party to maximize insurance payout and after that is received, he would refund anything that insurance covers. When I asked what patients do when they can't afford this treatment, he became defensive and explained that he couldn't provide services for free (which I wouldn't expect). I found a local (TMJ & Orofacial Pain Treatment Center) doctor who is excellent, fitted me with a night guard for under $200, and that has very clear patient costs for services after insurance, and charges much less overall.

I made the decision ahead of time to get put under. I have bad anxiety and heard the sounds were awful. The dentist comes in and tells me he doesn't want me doing that. In fact he kept referring to a story of a 17 year old boy out east that died from being put under. He kept telling me he wanted to wake up. This was not helping my anxiety. I was bullied into staying awake for my extraction. I was actually happy it happened though. It saved me money and really wasn't THAT bad. Though it was loud, and did hurt a bit at times. Their billing was closed for the day, so I couldn't pay, but get this, I was supposed to have an upfront down payment. They never asked. Two weeks later I went in for my free follow up, which was literally just swirling some mouthwash, and was on my way out when I thought to ask billing what was up with my bill. They were confused as they looked at my file until I said they hadn't charged me. So I paid finally and left.

With my most recent issue it began to hurt chewing and my OG dentist labeled it a 'problem tooth' and had me come in for X-rays and an exam where it revealed the 'problem tooth' was infected and would either need extraction or root canal retreatment. Since it was a problem, he leaned me towards extraction. However, my gut kept telling me to dig a little deeper and seek an alternative opinion. I took a weekend and researched root canals and retreatments. I came to find out that Endodontists exists and that a significantly high percentage (roughly 80%) of root canals fail when conducted by general dentists (your every day dentist)! In fact, up to 98% of root canals done by specialists (endodontists) succeed! Read those again (and google it yourself). These stats, paired with my gut feeling of a second opinion led me to research endodontists that were both highly rated online and within my insurance's network of care. This led me to Access Endodontics in Brookfield. Calling to make an initial connection was a breeze and the staff was very helpful. They would connect with my insurance and my current dentist to gain a referral and necessary pre-steps. They called me back a couple days later and we set up an in-person evaluation, which was a breeze. I saw Dr. Stover and immediately felt at ease. Her bedside manner was top notch and, paired with her Knowledge and expertise, left me feeling calm and confident in my decision to try retreatment. I also felt connected to her opinion and agreed that it was worth trying retreatment so as not to wonder 'what if'. Flash forward to the retreatment appointment and, while I was feeling nervous, her calmness and thorough yet empathetic approach made for a night and day experience from my initial root canal. Additionally, it was during my retreatment appointment with her that I learned the Dr found 2.5 MORE ROOTS that were completely MISSED the first time!! Of course this tooth was a 'problem' because it hadn't been properly treated the first time. Can you believe it?! Again, so glad I tried. If the options are to try again or pull the tooth, I'm trying again and gee am I glad I did. The procedure was straightforward and didn't last the entire time slot they designated for me. I listened to music in my earbuds the whole time and have since had a follow up to check its progress. It is healing nicely and the root canal seems very successful. I only wish I knew of and had gone the endodontist route the first time around! Both Drs at this location are great and I highly recommend.

My Dentist thought that since the pain was so intense that I was awakened at night and I had a root canal done in the tooth that I felt was hurting, I should go directly to an endodontist. My Dentist referred me to Access Endodontists. I called Access Endodontists on 11/15/2024 and explained that my dentist referred me to them and that I was not sure which tooth was the issue as the pain seemed to move as it intensified. I was assured they could diagnose my issue. My insurance information was requested and given. Later someone called me and explained my covereage was maxed out. I asked how much the evaluation would cost if I paid cash and was told around $238.00. I agreed to the amount and was scheduled for an appointment 11/19/2024. I had a very missable 4 days but survived by alternating Tylenol with Ibuprofen. When I arrived on 1/19/2024 I was given forms to fill out. After filling out all the forms and while sitting in an examining chair, I explained my situation to the person who was helping me. The person helping me told me they could not evaluate my situation because I did not have a referral. I explained over and over that I did have a referral. They said they tried to contact my dentist but were unable to. I drove to my dentists office while in severe pain and asked what was going on. After some back and forth Access Endodontics told my dentist's office they require the dentist to evaluate the situation before sending them to Access Endodontics. This policy was news to my dentist. I made an oral contract with Access Endodontics and agreed to pay them money, then was refused treatment and left in intense pain. No alternative action was presented.
