Detailed Introduction

Pafford, a D.M.D. with a Master of Science degree, who is recognized for his expertise in the field. He is a specialist member of the American Association of Endodontists, the Georgia Association of Endodontists, and a founding member of the International Academy of Endodontics, an organization committed to promoting clinical excellence and continuing education in endodontics. Dr. Pafford has also contributed to renowned textbooks in endodontics, showcasing his deep knowledge and experience. The core services offered by Pafford Endodontics revolve around the treatment of the dental pulp and surrounding structures. This primarily includes: Root Canal Treatment: Addressing inflamed or infected dental pulp to save a damaged tooth. Root Canal Retreatment: Performing a second root canal procedure on a tooth that has previously undergone the treatment, often due to new infections or incomplete healing. Apicoectomy: A surgical procedure to remove the tip of the tooth's root and surrounding infected tissue when conventional root canal treatment isn't sufficient. Pafford Endodontics distinguishes itself through a patient-centered philosophy, cutting-edge technology, and compassionate care. They prioritize the patient's needs, ensuring thorough explanations of findings, treatment recommendations, and costs. The practice aims to create a comfortable and pleasant environment for patients, fostering mutual trust and open communication. They are committed to an individualized approach, recognizing that each endodontic case is unique. Technologically, Pafford Endodontics utilizes state-of-the-art equipment to enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment precision. This includes the use of dental microscopes throughout every procedure, allowing for magnified and illuminated views of the treatment area. They also employ a Carestream 9600 3D scanner to obtain high-quality three-dimensional images of a patient's condition, leading to more targeted and effective treatment plans. A significant aspect of their practice model is collaboration with referring general dentists. Pafford Endodontics works in conjunction with general practitioners to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for each patient, ensuring a seamless and comprehensive care experience. Their ultimate goal is to deliver endodontic services at the highest level, aiming for predictable and successful outcomes, while always prioritizing the preservation of natural teeth whenever possible. They are also transparent, informing patients if endodontic therapy is not in their best interest or if alternative treatments would be more suitable.

I cannot say enough good things about Pafford Endodontics!! From the first call all the way to the procedure, they were so kind and welcoming. I've been in pain for about 2. 5 months trying to avoid a root canal, but I now wish I had done this earlier. Dr. Pafford and his team will calm your nerves and explain the procedure so that you understand what's happening.

I appreciated this as it was my first root canal. His staff is exceptional and very kind, as they seem to realize that coming to an endodontist means you are in a good bit of pain. My root canal was probably more complicated than most, but I knew I was in excellent hands. While I hope I do not need another root canal, I will definitely go back here if I do, and wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Pafford for your endodontic needs!

I recently had a new crown done and afterwards experienced sharp pain whenever I chewed on that side of the mouth. After the second replacement of that the crown, the pain didn’t go away. I was referred to Dr. Pafford by a long time specialist in Buckhead for possible evaluation and possible root canal procedure, if warranted. The Buckhead specialist indicated that most endodontists would likely go directly to a root canal but that Dr. Pafford would likely suggest other options unless a root canal was clearly needed. I was immediately contacted by Dr.

Pafford’s office to set up a soonest possible appointment for an inspection and evaluation of my tooth. After examining and x-ray of my tooth, Dr. Pafford then recommended 2 possible approaches for my situation. He suggested adjusting my bite at and near the painful tooth, and if that didn't work, I could go back for a root canal procedure. I agreed to his plan and was able to chew without excruciating pain as soon as I returned home after suffering the pain whenever chewing on the subject tooth side of the mouth for the past 5 months. While a root canal may still need to be done if the pain comes back or other complications arise, I really felt Dr. Pafford handled the situation very correctly.

The examination, x-ray, and bite adjustment are a low cost compared to a root canal. Dr. Pafford and assistants were gentle, considerate, respectful, and best of all put the patient first. I would definitely go back to Dr Pafford for any future endodontist dental care.

Fantastic job by Dr. Pafford and the whole team! First root canal, and I was very nervous. I procrastinated getting it done. I have regrets about that because I dealt with pain for six months and shouldn't have.

Very professional, very knowledgeable. Thanks for making what I thought was going to be a stressful procedure, routine. Dr. Pafford and team will be my go-to Endodontist if I have an issue like this again!

Dr Pafford and his team are the absolute best! They took me in for an emergency root canal at 6:45 am before their office even opened because I was in pain and leaving on a business trip the same day for a week. Dr Pafford did an amazing job and a few hours later I was in the plane with little to no pain and root canal was done. This is amazing patient care! Highly recommend this dentist!
