My Philosophy
My priority is saving the natural teeth. I believe that a patient should feel well-informed and have a clear understanding of their endodontic problem and options. Treatment should be pain free and predictable. Many patients are nervous when they come to my office, and many have never been to an endodontist or received a root canal before. My first goal is to help them feel comfortable and to explain the treatment calmly and thoroughly.
When it comes time for the actual treatment, we strive to treat our patients with the level of care we would expect if we were in their place. We trade the conveyer belt approach with personal attention and treatment. I genuinely strive to do my best with every patient.
The patient should be carefully diagnosed, receive comfortable and meticulous treatment, and get the best possible outcome to save their natural teeth -- this is the foundation of Tingey Endodontics.

What is Endodontics?
The term “endodontics” literally means “inside the tooth.” As you probably guessed, endodontics focuses on the treatment of the materials inside your teeth — namely the dental pulp. The pulp is the soft material that resides under the white enamel and hard exterior of the tooth. Endodontists treat the comprehensive network of nerves, arterioles, venules, and lymphatic and fibrous tissue that make up the dental pulp. [read more]
