Had never had a root canal. Dr. Sempira and staff made sure I was well-informed regarding all that would be going on before the procedure. During the process, Dr. Sempira would let me know what she was doing, if it would be a bit uncomfortable, made sure I was not feeling any undue discomfort. After the surgery, was given very thorough post-op instructions and many assurances that they were there by phone, even on the weekend should anything come up. Was given prescriptions, if needed, for pain or undue swelling. Didn't need the prescriptions. Had almost no pain. Took some ibuprofen, at far less than the recommended maximum dosage. Had to chew on opposite side of mouth for a while, but all was good. Excellent communication by staff regarding the follow-up appointment. Overall, considering what this was all about, a very pleasant experience. All questions answered. Super courteous and friendly staff. Nice, not ostentatious office. Recommend highly ! ! !
