“Root canals aren't so bad after all at least not with Dr. Cho”
I was referred to Dr. Cho from my primary dentist as I have a cracked tooth and was experiencing sensitivity and some minor but persistent pain. Dr. Cho saw me twice to determine whether or not a root canal was necessary. His approach was conservative and thoughtful which I appreciated as I didn't want to have a root canal unless absolutely necessary. I determined with Dr. Cho's confirmation that increased symptoms warranted me to get the root canal. Although the process was fairly lengthly- 2 1.5 hour appts. it was not as bad as I thought it would be. I felt some discomfort during the procedure but Dr. Cho was quick to give me more anesthetic and I was good. I am now done with my procedures and am happy for it to be complete and satisfied with my experience with Dr. Cho and his assistants.
