Detailed Introduction

Lake Superior Endodontics LLC is a highly specialized dental clinic located at 5005 Matterhorn Dr #1, Duluth, MN 55811. The practice is exclusively dedicated to endodontic care, focusing on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and injuries affecting the dental pulp—the soft tissues, nerves, and blood vessels inside the teeth. Under the expert leadership of Dr. Thomas J. Zbaracki Jr., Lake Superior Endodontics provides a comprehensive range of endodontic services. Their primary focus is on root canal therapy, a procedure designed to clean and disinfect the inside of a tooth when the pulp becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or traumatic injuries. Beyond standard root canal treatments, they also specialize in endodontic retreatment for cases where initial procedures didn't fully resolve the issue, and endodontic surgery, such as apicoectomies, to address hidden fractures or canals. They also offer specialized care for traumatic dental injuries, working to save teeth that have been dislodged or severely damaged. The clinic emphasizes a patient-centric approach, striving to provide high-quality care in a comfortable and compassionate environment. They leverage modern techniques and advanced technology to ensure efficient and precise treatments, aiming for predictable outcomes and faster healing. Patients frequently praise Dr. Zbaracki and his staff for their professionalism, caring demeanor, and ability to make potentially anxiety-inducing procedures as comfortable and pain-free as possible. The practice is committed to saving natural teeth whenever possible, recognizing that there is no substitute for a healthy, natural smile. Lake Superior Endodontics has been serving the Duluth area since 1990, building a reputation for excellence in endodontic care within the community.

Dr. Zbaracki and staff are simply the best. I have had a number of root canals, and Dr. Z is second to none. He has my complete confidence. He does great work, and he personally followed up with me to see how I was doing the next day. I can’t recommend Lake Superior Endodontics enough. Highly recommended!

I am thrilled that a root canal DIDN'T HURT! Dr. Zbaracki told stories, ensured I was doing well and skillfully maneuvered tiny chrome titanium ultrasonic drills to perform the procedure. I'm very pleased with the outcome! Thank you to Dr Z and his staff!

Dr. Z was a competent enough doctor. Two days post root canal and it is doing good, no pain at all. He clearly has the knowledge, and can do the job when his hands aren't really shakey. The staff and Dr. were extremely rude and condescending. It took over 2. 5 hours for a single tooth. I had music playing in one ear to try to not hear the drill as much, this apparently is offensive as I need to pay 100% attention to the Dr.

who seemed to want constant validation. Also, don't even think about moving a tiny bit. You are expected to be at a horrid angle, head down, mouth as wide open as it can be with no rest for hours or you get called names. Dr. actually threatened to walk out because I was having a panic attack, which apparently is disrespectful. If you need a quick, easy, short root canal have at going here. If you have any health problems or anxiety, I'd consider going elsewhere.

Dr. Zbaracki is great and his assistant was wonderful. He did a great job on my root canal and fit me in last minute even though his schedule was full. His reception staff, however, are terrible. They are short, rude, and condescending. Whenever there is an "issue" with something, they are "lost for words" and don't know what to say. It took forever for them to send my records to my dentist office despite me calling them multiple times to have them sent.

They never sent me a bill but charged my card without notifying me first and we're quite insolent when I confronted them about it. I recommend Dr. Zbaracki 100%. . . but beware of the reception staff.
