The entire staff was welcoming and professional. My experience in the chair was much better than I thought was possible for a root canal! It was comfortable and the doctor and her assistant explained everything they were going to do and when they were going to do it. I hope I don't need another root canal: however, if I do I'm going to make an appointment with Liv Endodontics.

I highly recommend Liv Endodontics! I came into my root canal appointment extremely nervous, but Dr. Fakory and the entire team completely changed that experience for me. From the moment I walked in, they were warm, reassuring, and incredibly professional. Dr. Fakory took the time to explain every step, which really helped ease my anxiety.

To my surprise, the procedure was comfortable—far better than I ever expected. I felt cared for the entire time, and the level of skill and gentleness was truly remarkable. What I thought would be scary turned out to be one of the easiest dental experiences I’ve had.

Dr Kohly and her team are fantastic! Had to have an emergency root canal - oh, joy! - but she and her team took me on short notice and performed the procedure professionally and flawlessly. Truly, I experienced no pain during the procedure and am so thankful for this. I recommend them without reservation: the best experience I have ever had (and it's hard to imagine being thankful for a root canal but I am thanks to Dr Kohly)!

I had an absolutely exceptional experience with Dr. Mark at Liv Endodontics. From the moment I walked in, the office felt impeccably clean, modern, and calming, unlike any dental specialty office I’ve ever visited.

Dr. Mark himself is truly outstanding. He is warm, gentle, and incredibly thorough. He took his own high-quality X-rays and panoramic views, and explained every single step of the process with clarity and confidence. His professionalism instantly put me at ease, even though I went in feeling nervous.

During my root canal, he talked me through each part of the procedure so I always knew what was happening. I barely felt any discomfort, not even the next day. His technique is precise, meticulous, and clearly of the highest caliber. I left the office shocked at how comfortable and pain-free the entire experience was.

Today, I am eating normally with absolutely no pain, and I am genuinely over the moon with the results. I never imagined a root canal could feel this easy and this well done. Dr. Mark is truly gifted at what he does, and his compassion and expertise set a new standard for dental care.

I am deeply grateful for the care I received and would recommend Dr. Mark and Liv Endodontics to anyone seeking skilled, state of the art compassionate treatment from Dr. Mark and his entire team including the receptionist. This experience was beyond excellent, it was exceptional.

I had excruciating pain in a tooth I had a crown on. The office fit me in the same day. The doctor was amazing the assistant also. I left pain free and the crown was still en tact. This is my second time there and the service was excellent. The office staff is awesome. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great Endodontics practice. Make an appointment you won’t regret it.

Fantastic doctor and fantastic staff. We all know root canals are not fun but Dr. Kohly has the best bedside manner. She's calming she tells you how things are moving along while she's working, she tells you you're doing great and she makes you feel comfortable. Her staff is terrific and friendly. So glad I found her.

I have not had good experiences at the dentist but I recently tried Living Smiles and they recommended me to LivEndontics for a root canal. They were wonderful. They were patient with me and explained everything to me every step of the way to make me more comfortable. If I told them I felt something, they made sure to wait and check until I couldn’t feel anymore. THANK YOU! I truly appreciate it, from a very nervous dental patient.

I was super nervous for my first root canal after hearing it would be painful, but I honestly didn’t feel a thing and even went back to work after. My dentist and her assistant were amazing—they finished everything in one visit instead of two, which saved me time and money. She made sure the infection was gone, and now I’m just waiting to fully heal

I had an outstanding experience at Liv Endodontics. The staff were incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating from the moment I walked in. I was in a lot of pain and needed a root canal urgently. The dentist went above and beyond, adjusting their schedule to fit me in as soon as possible. Their care, compassion, and professionalism truly made a stressful situation much easier to handle. I’m so grateful for their help and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a root canal—or any dental care.

I recently had a root canal done, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care I received. From start to finish, my doctor handled the procedure with absolute precision and professionalism. What truly stood out was how well I was kept informed throughout—every step was explained clearly, and all my questions were answered with patience and empathy.

Despite the nature of the procedure, I felt completely at ease. The environment was calm, and my comfort was clearly a priority. It’s rare to find a practitioner who combines technical excellence with such genuine care. Highly recommend to anyone seeking not just treatment, but trust and reassurance along the way.

One of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had - across all industries. Every interaction I had with their team was a positive one - you can see they’ve created a culture where everyone is valued. From the initial phone call through the conclusion of my root canal, I was treated with patience and respect. The office is immaculate and they actually got me in before my appointment time as I had arrived 20 minutes early. If you have the opportunity- do not go anywhere else.

I recently had a root canal done at Liv Endodontics. My appointment was on a Friday at 3:50pm, so I fully expected a rushed experience. Quite the opposite was true. The doctor was extremely patient with my fears and spent an hour making sure I was fully and properly numbed before even beginning the procedure. The support staff and front desk personnel were also extremely compassionate, friendly, and helpful, despite the late hour right before the weekend. I can’t recommend this office enough.

Dr. Higgins took time to explain what was happening, what needed to happen, and how it would happen. I appreciate that. I won't say I look forward to my next visit, however, I'm comfortable enough to look forward to being healed. From one Liv to another... THANK YOU!!

Dr. Forghani is the best dentist I have ever had. Not only is he meticulous in his craft and dedicated to successfully completing difficult cases (as was my root canal), he is extremely comforting and caring. He called me several times to check in on me post-procedure, even at late hours when I called in pain. He is extremely skilled and I would recommend him to anyone in need of a root canal. Thank you to the team at Liv Endodontics!

I recently was a patient getting a root canal done for the first time. I must say it was a very pleasant experience considering the procedure. Dr Rahmani and his assistant explained every step in details as they was doing it, which help ease my mind. They numbed me up very well and the procedure went pretty quickly. I am pleased to give them 5 stars and more. 😀

I recently had a root canal procedure at The Liv Endodontics, and I cannot express enough how outstanding my experience was. From the moment I arrived, the team was on time, organized, and made me feel completely at ease. Every step of the process was explained clearly and thoroughly, ensuring I knew exactly what to expect.

The patient care at Liv Endodontics is truly second to none. However, the highlight of my experience was the doctor herself. Her professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were unmatched. She demonstrated a level of care, patience, and skill that far exceeded any other medical professional I have ever encountered. It was clear that she not only prioritizes clinical excellence but also genuinely cares about her patients’ comfort and peace of mind.

I highly recommend The Liv Endodontics team, and especially commend the doctor for setting the gold standard in patient care and professionalism.

After a failed attempt to get my root canal done with my regular dentist, I called this office desperate. They were kind enough to take me in the same day.
