Detailed Introduction

Root Canal Specialists North, PLLC is a highly specialized endodontic practice located in Grand Rapids, MI. As a clinic, their entire focus is on endodontics, the branch of dentistry dealing with diseases and injuries of the dental root and pulp. This includes core services like primary root canal therapy, which involves removing inflamed or infected pulp, cleaning, disinfecting, filling, and sealing the tooth. They also offer endodontic retreatment for teeth that haven't healed properly or developed new issues after an initial root canal. Beyond these, the clinic performs endodontic or apical surgery, a procedure often involving the removal of the very end of the root to address persistent inflammation or infection. Patient comfort is a cornerstone of their practice. They strive to make treatments as pain-free as possible, utilizing local anesthesia and offering sedation options such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and, in select cases, oral sedation. The clinic is equipped with advanced technology to ensure high standards of care, including digital X-rays and potentially cone beam CT scanners for precise diagnosis and treatment planning. The team at Root Canal Specialists North, PLLC includes experienced endodontists like Dr. Jeffrey Halvorson, Dr. Michael Hembrough, and Dr. Jack Kemper, all dedicated to saving natural teeth and providing personalized care. They emphasize patient education, ensuring individuals understand their condition and the recommended treatment. Their services are typically for patients referred by general dentists, highlighting their role as specialists in complex root canal issues.

The entire staff including the doctor were very kind and compassionate. I could not be more grateful for such a positive experience.

I don't normally leave reviews but I have horrible dental anxiety and I think they help others like me. Dr. Kemper and assistant Jill were awesome. Quick (1 hour exactly from entrance to exit from building) painless process, Dr. Kemper verified I was numb and proved to me I was numb before beginning. (Not being numb is my biggest fear.

) Before the process they called my insurance found out I had partial coverage quoted me a price of $1600 and when I went to pay that was exactly what I was asked to pay. So, for those having billing issues, I did not, Paige was fantastic. I hope I never see this office or set foot in it again but, if I ever need a root canal. This is where I will be coming.

I was referred here by my primary dentist to see if I needed a root canal. I came here and they told me I did need one, and offered to do it right then. I was very nervous and did not know what to expect, but they were amazing.

The process went so smoothly and both the doctor and the assistant made me feel very comfortable and safe the whole time. They educated me on what they were going to do and why, which was very nice. 10/10 recommend

By fat THE smoothest procedure I've ever had done! Dr. Doering was very communicative and explained everything he was going to do before he did it. Then came the actual procedure. The numbing shots were easily the worst part, but even that he made quite bearable using some handy distraction techniques that worked way better than I would have expected! The root canal itself took a matter of 10 or so minutes. . .

When he said I was all done my mind was BLOWN. I went in feeling quite anxious about the procedure, but I won't hesitate to schedule with Dr. Doering again in the future if I need another root canal! (Hopefully I wont. . . ) CANNOT recommend enough! Cannot recommend
