Advanced Endodontics of Tampa Bay

Outstanding experience, start to finish. Needed a root canal and couldn’t have asked for better care. Bonnie, at the front, was professional and warm. Dr Denitto and his assitant were professional, personable and competent. The procedure was over quickly (they worked so well in concert with one another). Bonnie made sure to tell me the portion I would be responsible for before I went back to start the procedure. I was in NO pain after (other than a little jaw soreness from holding my mouth open). I would go back again (although I NEVER plan to need another root canal ;))

I am so disappointed with this Dentist office. I was told $ 368.00 for a root canal and my insurance would pay the remainder. Now a month later I receive an invoice in the mail from this Dentist office asking for another $ 691.00 because THEY VERIFIED incorrectly and too bad type attitude. No apology, just pay the bill. I would not recommend this office to anyone.

I was referred here from my Dentist yesterday to have a root canal procedure because she was not comfortable with doing it herself. Due to a mess up in the referral at the Dentist’s office, they called in a favor and Advanced Endodontics took me immediately.
The lobby staff was warm and welcoming. Sara, my Dental Assistant, was polite and accommodating. Dr. Orrantia was very descriptive and gentle during the procedure.
The part that earned the 5^th star was watching Dr. Orrantia and Sara work together (from the reflection on the microscope). This may sound cheesy, but it was like watching a fine tuned machine perform. They rarely spoke to each other and were so coordinated in the hand off with all of the dental tools that it literally looked like one person was doing the procedure. I was so distracted by watching the procedure through the reflection that I didn’t even feel like the root canal was being done to me. I was able to wear my headset and listen to music so I didnt have to hear (just feel) the drilling. That helped alot.
Overall, I was there about 2 hours, but the procedure itself only took about 40 minutes. The rest was lobby time (which was fair), the shots taking effect (Dr. Orrantia made it as pain free as possible), and the prepping/​post procedure. As I said in the beginning, I was a last minute/​squeezed in patient, so it was very expected to wait a little longer.
Hopefully, I never have another need for a root canal, but if I do, I will definitely come back here and/​or refer friends and colleagues.
