A patient-first experience

“It was literally the smoothest pain-free procedure I’ve ever had done. I’ve always heard horror stories of root canals. I have to say that was not my experience this place was amazing and the staff was great. Zero pain, comfortable the entire time. I will definitely be recommending and coming back if I ever need any more Procedures.” — Eric —

“I was extremely impressed with this entire office. Every staff member I came into contact with was professional and friendly, they were time-efficient, no waiting time and the office was clean and presentable. Most importantly, Dr. Dean and his assistant went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable, informative on every step of the procedure and made sure I experienced no pain.” — Nikki —

“I was referred to Dr. Pugh for a root canal. The woman who made my appt, the assistant who got me set up, and the dr were all so kind and helpful. I barely felt the injection, which was a most pleasant surprise. The procedure was quick and the discomfort minimal. I highly recommend Athens Endodontics!” — Tina —

“Perfect location, lovely atmosphere and clean esthetic design, great bedside manner and polite service. Crazy that I went through so much pain and suffering and they were able to relieve me of this awful nerve pain in less than an hour of work. I wish I had gone to see them sooner.” — Ian —
