Baldassano Endodontics

Baldassano Endodontics is a highly specialized dental clinic located in Inverness, Illinois, focusing exclusively on endodontic care. The practice is led by Dr. Joseph V. Baldassano, a D.D.S., M.S.D., and a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics, signifying his advanced expertise and commitment to the highest standards in his field. The clinic's mission is to provide technologically advanced and high-quality root canal therapy and root canal-related surgical care to patients in Inverness, Barrington, Palatine, and the entire Northwest Suburban area. They emphasize individualized, personalized care with a strong focus on patient comfort and achieving predictable treatment success to save natural teeth. Baldassano Endodontics prides itself on integrating cutting-edge technology into every aspect of patient care. This includes the use of digital imaging, CT scans (specifically 3D CBCT units for three-dimensional viewing), and surgical operating microscopes with video capabilities. These tools allow for extreme precision in diagnosis and treatment, particularly for complex endodontic issues, retreatment of previously treated root canals, and micro endodontic surgery. They also handle minor oral trauma cases involving luxated, concussed, and avulsed (knocked-out) teeth, and offer regenerative endodontics, a modern procedure that utilizes a patient's own stem cells to encourage root development in immature teeth. Beyond the advanced medical technology, the clinic is designed to offer a calming and comfortable environment. The office is set in a "Colonial Williamsburg Village" style, featuring warm atmospheres, soothing slate waterfalls in treatment rooms, sun-soaked windows, and comfortable chairs. They also provide additional patient comforts such as head and neck rests, music headphones, and protective eyewear. The office operates on a paperless, computer-networked workflow for efficiency and patient education. Dr. Baldassano himself is a native of the Chicago-land area with an extensive educational background from Loyola University and Indiana University School of Dentistry, where he earned his Endodontic Specialty Certificate and a Master of Science Degree. He also completed a General Practice Dental Hospital Residency at Hines Veterans Hospital, where he maintains a staff position and trains general dental residents. He is affiliated with numerous professional organizations including the American Dental Association and the American Association of Endodontists, demonstrating his continuous engagement with the latest advancements in endodontics.
