Last week I had a root canal (my first) done by Dr. Lin. My tooth is feeling so much better and feels solidly rooted again. I think I'll be keeping this tooth many, many more years thanks to doc Lin. Prior to the treatment Dr. Lin took an x-ray and examined the tooth. She walked me through the treatment process in great detail and answered all of my questions. I was already feeling quite comfortable due the pre-treatment consultation, but the adeptness with which she performed the procedure was beyond my expectations. No pain, no discomfort through the entire process. Even the local anesthetics injections around the gum, i didn't feel. I was feeling so comfortable that I fell half asleep during the process. However, what I was most impressed with was the thoroughness and care she took to make absolutely certain that all decayed materials were completely removed in both root canals in the tooth. She even took an x-ray to confirm all bad stuff was removed before putting in the filling. She than took another x-ray to confirm the filling material had zero voids, I could clearly see even the small branching canal from the main canal were completely filled. Only then she sealed the tooth to finish the procedure. I was expecting a swollen jaw for the rest of the day, the anesthetics wore off in about an half an hour with zero swelling. Can't thank doc Lin and her wonderful assistant enough for saving my tooth - I would add another 5 stars to the rating if I could!!
