The words«root canal» stirs a lot of emotions. Anxiety and fear are two things that come to mind for most people. But fortunately, Dr. Kellert really lived up to his sterling reputation. Recently one of my old fillings broke off and after my regular dentist finished the replacement filling I spent the next two weeks slowly spiraling into a daily cycle of agonizing pain. Turns out I had all the classic symptoms of pulpitis(e.g. sharp unbearable pain when something hot/cold touched my damaged tooth) and I needed relief fast. I was recommended to see Dr. Kellert at the soonest and I was fortunate enough to get a last minute appointment. Upon arriving, the professional and friendly staff had me in the chair quickly and Dr. Kellert quickly diagnosed(e.g. confirmed) my issue and the need to have a root canal procedure. Of course I had reservations since my last root canal with another dentist was by far the most painful experience of my life(it hurt more than when I broke my wrist and several other bones in my body). Thankfully Dr. Kellert was extremely mindful of this and quickly had me numbed to a comfortable level. The procedure went by very quickly and I was pain free the entire time, which is worth noting since I don’t usually react much to novocaine. He was very gentle and did a fantastic job. I was extremely surprised at how smoothly the process went. I strongly recommend Dr. Kellert to anyone who is looking for a dentist who can take care of their root canal issues in the most professional and non-stressful way.

Dr. Kellert and the endodontic practice of which he is a part are exceptionally well educated, trained and experienced dental care providers. They are the practitioners to whom really good dentists refer their patients when dental problems and pain stem from disease and necrotic nerves, causing inflammation, abscesses and tooth loss. Further, the staff is intelligent and helpful. However, it is the nature of the practice that unscheduled appointments and emergencies cause difficulties in logistics. I have been a patient for a decade and consider myself fortunate to have this resource.
