Great experience. The front staff were very friendly. The Dr. Amin is very knowledgeable and made the whole experience comfortable. I waited a few weeks before doing my review to make sure that everything turned out right and I'm happy to say I had ZERO issues with my root canal. Would recommend. read more

They tried to give me a completely unnecessary root canal. Be very wary of what they recommend here! I had been having tooth pain for a few months after getting a cavity filled, and the dentist recommended I go here. By the time my appointment came around, the pain had mostly gone away, but I wanted them to evaluate it anyway. They did a 3D x-ray, coldness test, and bite stick test... all showed no indication of any issues... and then the doctor said, well, I think you should go ahead and have us do a root canal. How about right now? But there was no indication on any test they did of any issue! He said, well, maybe the nerve died and you'll find out in a few months that the pain is back and there's an infection spreading. But I asked, isn't it possible there's no issue at all? Well, yes, maybe, but I recommend you get the root canal anyway. So right then, I realized the tests they did that I paid $400 for were all a sham. It makes zero difference what they find on the test, they recommend a root canal TO EVERY PATIENT. I left and didn't get the root canal. It's been close to a year now. It turns out there was no issue. They wanted to do a completely unnecessary root canal on me. read more

Do NOT go here. I was quoted 980 ended up going up more for some reason and I paid a total of $1,200 to get cut twice during a root canal. No apologizes nothing... i was in so much pain and i wonder why.... it won't allow me to upload my videos. read more

I'm not normally the type to leave reviews, but the positive experience I had at ACE was so refreshing that I feel compelled to rave about it. I came to ACE after several months of nightmare experiences with other dental/endodontics practices. Their staff is incredible. The person on the phone worked to get me a rush consult + treatment in the same appointment before my coverage expired, coordinating with my dentist to get my records and speed up the process. Dr. Amin was friendly and knowledgeable, offering a detailed explanation of what was going on and laying out all my options along with pros and cons of each. The dental assistant was sweet and reassuring as I was having anxiety over the whole process. The professionalism and kindness of everyone I interacted with at ACE stood out compared to the other practices I've been to in the last year. I can't recommend them highly enough. read more

I was referred here for my root canal - staff was caring, clean and had attention to detail. I was not waiting long and they even sent me home with a little care kit. Highly recommend this place! read more

Try doing "Dr Phillips mouth care system" for a couple months before making any permanent procedures from these people...

Ketan Amin, DMD is the ONLY Endo I want to have work on my teeth! He is gentle, kind and thorough in explanation. His staff is also very kind and informative and sensitive to the pain that goes with needing a root canal. He and his assistant do everything to keep you as comfortable as possible during the procedure, and quick to answer any questions before and after. I was so relieved to be able to hold an appointment for a few days after I sensed a problem, awaiting a DDS to confirm. Dr. Amin has worked on 2 other teeth for root canals and I'm so grateful he was there for me again. Kudos to Austin Center for Endodontics. read more

One of the best dentists I've had all my life. Ketan Amin, DMD is super professional and his team is very thorough and pleasant. They go above and beyond and I can't imagine going to any other Endodontics as long as I'm in Austin. read more

Earlier this year I was advised to perform a root canal on a tooth that had zero symptoms or issues after visiting for the tooth in front of it. As you can see in the photo- I got the root canal and within 3 months the tooth in front I originally went in for fell out (it was already a root canal so it failed). I've gone ahead with replacing the failed root canal with an implant and the root canal that was performed here is now infected and needs to be pulled out. It was bad advice to suggest the root canal in the first place as the top tooth was already removed and it didn't do any chewing. You can also see in the photo that the filling spilled out of the bottom of the tooth and is just hanging out there in my gum until my body dissolves it. I learned I had 8 infected root canals so I will probably never bother wasting my money on root canals again. I wrote to the business and never heard back. I just wanted people to know that a root canal may not be the best option for everyone. I should have gotten a second opinion in this case and had this tooth pulled instead of wasting my money on a root canal. read more

Austin Center For Endodontics - A poorly done root canal - Endodontists Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was referred here by Great Grins Dental for a root canal. My experience here renewed my trust in dentists! I had to get a root canal and had some pretty awful past experiences in the dentist chair (not at Great Grins!!), not to mention the general fear surrounding root canals. Dr. Karim took special care to explain everything and check in on me as we progressed. They also have a TV on the ceiling and headphones so I watched Netflix while they finished up the treatment. Overall, it was a great experience and the staff here are gentle and kind! read more

Fantastic experience. The communication with the office before my consultation and procedure was stellar. Upon my initial call, I was easily taken care of and scheduled by Patrick. My forms and any additional information was sent to me ahead of time. Check in was a breeze and the office was cozy and calm. Dr. Amin quickly assessed the problem area and explained the necessary root canal and the steps it would involve in an easy to understand manner. Dr. Amin and his assistant were professional, courteous, and very efficient. My consultation and treatment were complete in under an hour which I really appreciated as I was nervous for my first ever root canal. I really appreciate the care that is evident at this office and would definitely go back if ever needed. Thank y'all so much for your help! read more

Dr. Amin and staff were wonderful. I emailed them on the weekend and they called me on Monday morning with an appointment available immediately. I was so happy to have Dr. Amin help me with this tooth as he helped with 2 other teeth in 2015 and 2017. He is so gentle and a great dentist. read more

Lovely doctor and staff who provide kind and compassionate care. Highly recommend!

I needed a root canal and was referred here by regular dentist. I'd never had a root canal before and was terrified of the possible pain I might experience. I brought my earbuds to play a podcast to keep my mind occupied. I mentioned I was nervous while being seated for the procedure. During the initial injection of the anesthetic, the assistant rubbed my arm and tried to calm me down. I didn't expect that level of kindness. I've never seen that before. It really made me feel cared for. The procedure went smoothly and they coordinated with my regular dentist to get the permanent filling done for my crown. As dental experiences go, this was top notch! read more

Dr. Amin, D.M.D. was recommended to me by Mesa Dental. Unfortunately, I needed to have a root canal consultation and was confirmed to need the procedure to take place at a later date. Obviously the idea of a root canal is scary and intimidating to say the least, but Dr. Amin is genuinely very good at what he does. He's extremely accomplished, has wonderful bedside manner, puts you at ease and is professional every step of the way. He made my boyfriend feel welcome in the room and his staff is also just as wonderful. I have a pretty severe phobia of dental work, and honestly, the procedure couldn't have gone any better for me. Yes, there is pain after-the-fact, but it's inevitable. The procedure itself was painless and completed in less than an hour. Highly recommend, and thanks to everyone at the office for making it as pleasant of an experience as it could be! read more

Went to my regular dentist for a semi annual appt and found one of my front teeth had gone dead and changed colors. They recommended Dr Amin. Called same day and got an appt for the next day to see Dr. Amin for consultation and treatment. Great customer service by his crew and great treatment by Dr. Amin. He came in and explained what probably happened to the tooth. Showed me again that it had no feeling to it and the root was dead. We went ahead with a root canal and we were all done in about 40 minutes! They were great! read more

I was referred to Dr. Amin for a root canal and my experience at the office was amazing! I admit I was nervous going in because I have heard the horrors of getting this procedure done, however Dr. Amin and his staff were extremely professional and made me feel comfortable. read more

My dentist referred me to Dr.Amin for. Foot canal procedure. I was able to get an appointment the same day. I liked that I could fill out all the necessary paperwork online. It makes the visit less stressful. As soon as I checked in I had a couple of attestations to read and agree to on their mobile tablet. Within minutes I was taken to the back. Dr. Amin was very thorough with explaining what he was going to do. I did appreciate the choice of listening to music on Pandora or a show on Netflix while he worked on my tooth. The procedure went smoother than I imagined. If I ever need another root canal done I would schedule an appointment with Dr. Amin. read more

I am a very patient centered RN and Dr. Amin totally lacks in this area of care. He is efficient and a good practitioner on the technical side of care. His office staff are kind and attentive. I'm still numb so I am hoping all is well after this wears off. read more

What a great experience. The front office was friendly and very knowledgeable. The doctor was funny, informative and gave me a good feel. The procedure was efficient, prompt and they cared about my comfort. Will totally use this facility in the future if needed. read more

Dr. Amin is fantastic. My son had a root canal by Dr. Amin and the procedure was quick and practically painless. I highly recommend Dr. Amin. read more

Love this Dr and the office is friendly and easy to get appointment. He has a great bedside manner. I can't recommend him enough. Make an appointment! read more

Update: Several weeks later, I wish that the staff had given me more information about what is a normal healing process and what issues may arise. I would downgrade my rating to 3 1/2 stars. read more

The good doctor had plenty of time to discuss his favorite Thanksgiving recipes with the nurse but had failed to mention the high dose antibiotics he prescribed which was nonchalantly mentioned by the nurse upon checking out with no explanation. I can't rate his RC work just yet but terrible bed side manner and patient treatment. read more

If you have any fears of the dentist, this is the place to go!! Dr. Amin is a Harvard grad, extremely brilliant, humble, approachable, and always willing to answer all your questions and offer all the reassurance you need before you have a procedure done so there is no guessing involved. I had an old root canal from 10 years ago that I never had crowns placed on until recently. I went to my dentist's office in Houston and he placed the crowns...a week later I noticed swelling and tenderness in my gums and had xrays done....they were reinfected!! I was referred to Dr. Amin by a family member that spoke very highly of him, the only problem was that I had to drive to Austin to get it done. He offered to look at my X-rays, explained everything I was looking at, and told me what I needed done. He got me in rather quickly from there. Because my treatment plan included replacing the root canals and surgery the next day I didn't want to go to just anyone. It was definitely worth the trip. He did explain to me that there was a chance that I would need the crowns replaced in case they were damaged in the process before anything was done. He even made sure with me that my dentist was willing to replace the damaged crowns if anything was to happen to them, which was very considerate of him. BUT...he was able to save the crowns! He explained EVERYTHING he was doing before he did it and what I was going to feel. He frequently checked on me to make sure I wasn't in any pain and checks on you later in the day too...I've never had a dentist do that before. Pixie and Erica were great too. One of them even rubbed my arm when I was getting the anesthetic injected. I'm a nurse and didn't think I was the type of person that would be comforted by that type of thing....but it was so nice. =) They even have a TV on the CEILING and headphones so you can watch Netflix or listen to music. All of the equipment is modern, tiny X-Ray machine, consent forms are on the computer, and you fill out your health history through a link they send you through your email so you don't have to fill out paperwork by hand. It doesn't get easier than that! Dr. Amin and his team left me in such good shape that I was able to drive back to Houston straight from the office after having the surgery. I have absolutely no regrets making that trip to Austin, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat if anything else popped up. Dr. Amin is mindful of your time, money, fears, and genuinely loves what he does. I wish he was in Houston!! read more

I'm a bit "long in the tooth", as they say, and have seen several endodontists over the years. Dr Amin and his staff blow everyone else away. From the top down, they're all refreshingly efficient, proficient, incredibly competent, and caring. They're also in network with most insurance carriers, and you can fill out all your medical history and insurance information online, before coming in. read more

Thank you Dr. Amin, Erica and Pixie!!! I have been putting off a root canal for 2 years due to fear of the dentist. I even considered having my tooth pulled to avoid a root canal. I was crying and shaking when I sat in the chair due to my fear but I can say the whole procedure, even the injections were PAIN FREE, let me repeat, ZERO PAIN. I was impressed with the fact that they gave me 4 extra strength advil to take with me and instructions to come back in 6 months for a xray to make sure the healing process completed. Oh and also I like the fact that they gave me an antibiotic script to lessen the chance of infection which occasionally happens with a root canal. If you need a root canal and want ZERO PAIN(plus a wonderful staff) go to Austin Center for Endodontics. read more

Good bed side manner. Quick and efficient during the procedure. communicative and explained everything. No one WANTS to get a root canal but it REALLY wasn't that bad at all. Between the gas, the topical stuff he used and the pulling on the cheek during the initial injections for pain, it really didn't hurt. read more

Dr Amin is amazing! I did oral surgery and a root canal treatment with him and his is a pro! Great person and great staff! Erica is great and vey helpful! My treatment was painless and successful ! Recommend with full confidence ! read more

Dr Amin and his staff go above qnd beyond to provide excellent treatment and service. I went in for a re treat and they were able to accomodate my schedule anf my treatment was fast and painless. Dr Amin is very skilled and also kind and friendly. Thank you! read more

Who ever heard of an enjoyable root canal experience ? Indeed, it was... never in my life have I raved to countless people (strangers and family alike) right after the procedure of what an absolutely amazing root canal I had... I honestly doubted the use of even posting a review, (knowing Dr. Amin's office would have a plethora of 5-star ratings)....but I finally figured... even if I'm the millionth, so be it... Hard work, dedication and kindness deserve it. Every aspect, from the actual medical procedure (whereby I was completely put at ease, experienced NO pain--contrary to my last root canal, enjoyed pandora via headphones they provided) to the friendliness of staff, overall efficiency (appointment, wait time, even the procedure was only 45 minutes) and...as if they're really trying to melt my heart ...sustainability efforts....no cutting down trees, as seems to be the goal of every new medical specialist office we find ourselves in (in the U.S.)...no paperwork, Dr. Amin brings the computer to you, if you don't happen to have filled it out online in advance. There are comments about the price being higher than average. This was an emergency appointment...the night before I was in so much pain I was about to pull my own tooth out...Most patients who come to the clinic have emergency root canals like myself, and, like myself, are "fit in same day". I in no way felt rushed/like I was being "fit in".... Putting the financial reality aside (at the end of the day, we are living within the American medical system, which is more expensive than others), if it is slightly more expensive than expensive anyway, in my mind that's nothing when you get a team of medical professionals in whom you feel 100% instant trust and confidence. Cannot recommend more highly. :) read more

I had a root canal done by Dr. Amin last October while visiting friends in Austin. I was 100% pleased with my experience and I knew that it was much better than I had anticipated, but I had nothing to compare it to until yesterday. A different tooth needed a root canal, so I went to an endodontist who is much closer to me and learned that going back to Dr. Amin would have been well worth the four hour drive. I intended to write a review for his office immediately following my visit, but yesterday's unfortunate experience highlighted the sharp contrast between offices and I feel newly motivated to recommend Austin Center for Endodontics. I felt at ease from the moment I walked into Dr. Amin's office. His office and staff are warm, friendly, and calm. Check-in was quick and easy since his office emails the registration link ahead of time. I was led back to my chair where I selected a Netflix show to pass the time (a great distraction!) Dr. Amin greeted me and was so friendly and informative. He confirmed the problem with my tooth and got started. The numbing injections (normally the worst part of any dental treatment for me) weren't bad at all. I really have to give props here to his assistant as she was incredibly soothing and really softened the whole experience for me. I can't remember what her name is, but she was incredible. The rest of the treatment is a blur to me, as I was heavily distracted by Netflix. I didn't even finish the TV show episode I was watching before Dr. Amin was completely done! Checking out of the office was a breeze, and I left feeling more like I'd just had a relaxing break away from my kids than a root canal. I was grateful then, but I'm even more appreciative now that I've learned my lesson: when you find an endodontist who makes a root canal seem more like a vacation than a chore, you should stick with him. read more

I have to start this review by saying how much I miss having Dr. Amin here in Phoenix as my to go guy for ALL of my patients who needed a root canal treatment. Dr. Amin was recommended to me by another dentist so I thought I would give him a try when I first opened my office in 2008 (I'm a general dentist). From the first patient that I sent there to the last, all of them gave me raving reviews as to how well their appointments went with him. It's hard enough to have to give my patients the bad news of needing a root canal treatment, but it was extremely easy to tell them, without a doubt, that Dr. Amin will take great care of them. Not only is he personable with my patients, but I truly felt confident in his work. He is one of the few endodontists who will actually clean out ALL of the decay like you are supposed to with the completion of the root canal treatment. His root canal treatments looked beautiful on the x-rays when they came back to me. I know that's pretty nerdy to say, but it's true! I can't say enough great things about him. In summary, he's caring, honest, excellent at what he does, and just an all around great guy! I will still email him with root canal questions to this day, all the way from Phoenix! Austin...you are one lucky city! read more

Dr. Amin did my root canal actually last year..but I know I need another one here soon. I'm actually looking forward to going!! I swear there's no pain and he's just so quick. There's no one better in town! Dr. Amin is the best ! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Amin and his office staff. First off, it was a very quick, painless procedure. The worst part was the shot to numb me, and then the rest was smooth sailing. The tv mounted to the ceiling and big headphones kept me distracted, and it was over before I knew it. When he told me it was over I didn't believe him! Seriously an experience I was dreading but came out smiling. 5 stars all the way! read more

In 2013 I saw my dentist in this building. He informed me I needed a root canal, and there was a new endodontist downstairs. How convenient. I went directly to the office of Dr Amin. I informed them I had an infection, had just seen my dentist, and was starting antibiotics that night(this will become important to the story)They scheduled me for the next day. This was one of the most painful procedures of my life! The anesthetic wasn't working, despite multiple injections. Later he informed me that when there's active infection the anesthesia doesn't work as well. Despite this, as I was crying and sinking deeper into the chair, he administered multiple injections and pressed on. At one point he even sighed and kind of grabbed my face in frustration to give another shot. He missed a root, that's another story. It's very traumatic for me to go the dentist to this day now...photo posted read more

I am a referring General Dentist to Dr Amin. I have had a professional relationship with him for about 7 years now. Our patients have nothing but great things to say about Dr Amin and his office. His front office is on point with insurance (most of which he is a preferred provider with) and overall communication with my office. His care, results and overall demeanor with patients is second to none. I highly recommend Dr Amin. read more

My 85 year old mother went in for a root canal today. Her understanding was she would pay for the procedure AFTER it was completed as this is how it is done at her current dentist. Erica refused to honor my mother's appointment until she paid up front. My mother asked her to call me for the credit card information and she refused saying they no longer had time for her appointment. My mother was very upset - she is, after all in a lot of pain - to which the Erica then told my mother to leave the premises or she would call the police. CALL THE POLICE - ON AN 85 YEAR OLD WHO MISUNDERSTOOD YOUR PAY-UP-FRONT POLICY - WHO WAS IN PAIN - REFUSED A DRINK AND TOLD TO STAND OUTSIDE TO WAIT FOR HER RIDE. Or Austin Center for Endodontics would call the police - on an 85 year old. Good job! read more

Unfortunately, I didn't get past scheduling an appointment. It is unfortunate that he came so highly recommended yet how I was treated by his staff will prohibit me from moving forward with an appointment. I even asked to speak with the Office Manager, Erica, and I was appalled at how dismissive and rude she was. Dr. Amin may be great, but his staff may end up costing him future patients. read more

My first root canal was easy breezy, even though I'm terrified of nearly all dental procedures. Office staff and Dr. Amin answered all my questions and alleviated my fear and anxiety. I wish I hadn't put it off so long. read more
