Had a root canal done and treatment was amazing! Staff were very professional, office was very clean and nice looking. Definitely recommend!

Going to the dentist can be scary but let me tell you that RCT made my experience as smooth as possible. From the moment I schedule my appointment I was nervous about navigating insurances. Their staff was patient and walked me through each dental code and never got mad when I asked a question. They were clear and even gave me all my options. I felt reassured that I was getting the best care and not being scammed. During my actual visit Dr. Coston made me feel very seen. He talked me through my scans and explained everything clearly. I felt like I was in charge of my care. This was truly one of the best dental experiences I've had. read more

One of the best experiences I have had with dental work. Amazing staff and amazing doctor. The way that he presented the procedure made me feel comfortable and confident that this would be done well. I highly recommend this facility and Dr. Chayne Coston. read more

It was one of the most painful experiences I have ever had at the dentist I also found the dentist and his staff to be extremely cold and not one person asked me how I felt during or after the procedure In fact after crying and screaming the dentist actually told me he was doing his best and I had a large infection This is not what you want to hear when you are in intense pain and upset I would not go back ... And an still upset about the whole episode read more

I feel like it's an oxymoron to have amazing experience and root canal in the same sentence. However, that's exactly what I had. They explained why I needed the root canal, pointing to my X-rays and said it all in a way I could understand. They were very efficient and from start to finish, my root canal was completed in an hour. The office associate who scheduled me, greeted me, and took my payment was very friendly and was thorough when explaining the possible charges. I appreciate the upfront estimate of worst case scenario so there would be no surprises, only pleasant ones if the total came out cheaper. They gave me printed post-op instructions and an Rx for 800mg ibuprofen should I need it. I absolutely recommend RCT-Navy Yard should you need any endodontic dental work. read more

Just what you would expect from anyone providing dental services! Excellent, thorough, professional, and extremely clean! The entire staff is caring and attentive. They make you feel like you're not in pain. read more

I met with Dr. Chayne Coston twice for a consultation and for a root canal. He has wonderful chair-side manners and a very pleasant and friendly personality. Dr. Coston patiently took the time to explain the issue with the decayed tooth, the root canal procedure and he answered my questions all to my satisfaction. And, true to the many testimonies, the root canal procedure was really painless! I also felt 100% fine after the anesthetic wore off! The Navy Yard facility is very well maintained and is a really lovely and comfortable space. I only communicated with the front desk person and one other female regarding the billing process, briefly with Dr. Coston's assistant, but the entire staff were real pleasant and very professional based on my personal observations during both visits to RCT Endodontics. Now, here's the BONUS! I am deaf, and without even having to make the request, I was asked if I would like to have an ASL (American Sign Language) Intepreter during the consultation. WOW! That was truly IMPRESSIVE, and it simply blew me away!! In all the years that I have gone to any dental offices ((50+ years), none of them have offered me some kind of way to facilitate a smooth and effective communication path (50 years ago, they simply YELLED at me, and though it was SHOCKING, I can laugh about it now *chuckling*). Afree the consultation with Dr. Coston, I received a call from RCT to give me some additional information, and was asked again, if I would like to have an ASL Interpreter for the next visit - oh, my my... I was blown away again!!! I am happy I folllowed my instincts and researched other Endodontists in the DMV area. Thank you, Dr. Coston and team for your excellent care and outstanding support! You can count on me for recommendations! Melba K. Goodwin . read more

Dr. Colson is the ultimate professional. No one likes getting a root canal. I can't promise you'll like it when he's done. But I can promise your experience will not be painful or scary. The office staff are friendly. The music is soothing, and you leave feeling like, hey, that wasn't bad at all. Check him out at the Navy Yard location. Should I ever need another root canal or have friends that do, RCT Endodontics and Dr. Chayce Colson is where we're going. read more

Root canal treatment. Awesome endodontist. I experience no pain during and after service. Professional staff and enviroment.

Great compassionate care. The highest quality in DC. Would recommend to anyone, especially if you have had bad experiences in the past Dr Coston and staff are world class read more

I have Dentist anxiety ...."real bad". Dr. Coston was phenomenal. Literally, a pain free root canal. Highly recommend!!! read more

I saw Dr. Safi, he couldn't help me with this cracked tooth split in half but he explained this very clearly, was patient, very cordial, and gave me three options to look forward to seeing an Oral Surgeon. Also, the office itself is very nice and welcoming and neat. The office staff was kind. read more

I had been putting off (and literally having nightmares about) a root canal based on how uncomfortable I am at cleanings and getting more regular dental work done. My anxiety could not have been higher. That said, I knew I had to do my best to pull it together and connect with Dr. Chayne Coston DDS. He could not have made the experience any easier. From the moment I sat down he exuded calm, knowledge, and confidence. It was exactly what I needed to trust him, relax, and let him do his work. I genuinely enjoyed talking with him and he was super clear about what he was going to do, why and how, and answered any additional Qs. His demeanor and warmth was what got my through my first root canal PAINLESSLY. I left thinking that I really liked him and we'll see how the results go once the feeling returned in my mouth/jaw. Despite him explaining that my case was a bit worse than anticipated I had no pain during treatment and no pain even after numbing faded! I'm over 24 hrs out from the procedure and I haven't needed a single bit of pain or inflammation medication including OTC. I went about life as normal yesterday including getting a workout in after the root canal. I've had more soreness after a cleaning frankly. The only downside I can think of is, like me, you'll probably wish he could do all your dental things for you :) I bet my general dental apprehension would fade if all experiences were anywhere near as good as this one. TL;DR No one wants a root canal, but if you need to get one--get it here! Dr. Coston is wonderful and talented. read more

This is the first review I've ever written--this office is amazing at what they do. Dr. Coston answered all of my questions with clarity. After he did the injections, I didn't feel anything. The feeling during my root canal was comparable to that of a cleaning as far as pressure/vibration, surprisingly painless. He was good at explaining step by step what he was doing next. Also, the procedure was very fast, I was shocked at how quickly Dr. Coston finished. A talented medical professional! The customer service is professional. The desk receptionist is very nice and welcoming. She was detailed about billing and gave me a breakdown of my costs. She had my paperwork ready for me when I came in and when I walked out.The office is clean and aesthetically pleasing with nice window views. Everything is well organized. The dental assistants are very sweet and attentive to your needs. I highly recommend this office! read more

Outstanding experience! I was given detailed information on the cost of my procedure prior to treatment so there were no surprises. Every member of the staff was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable & professional. Had a very pleasant, pain-free experience. Dr Coston and his team worked quickly & efficiently to save my tooth read more

RCT Endodontics Navy Yard/Dr. Chayne Coston was a phenomenal find! In May my dentist instructed me to see an endodontist to get confirmation of a condition or lack thereof. The one he recommended didn't take insurance and would have charged an initial consultation fee of $500. I postponed my visit thinking that there had to be normal endodontists who accepted insurance and also did high-quality work. I searched the carrier's website and found RCT. The reviews of the practice and Dr Chayne Coston were uniformly excellent so I decided to try RCT. I went there today and couldn't have been more pleased. The offices were impeccably kept, with lots of natural light and open spaces. The equipment was new and modern. I felt reassured being in the space. Dr. Coston himself was a consummate professional. Don't be fooled by his youthful countenance -- his years of experience were evident in the way he handled himself and his behavior toward me as a patient. He explained everything in detail. He took the time to say what he was going to do and why, what to expect, and the possible outcomes. He answered my questions thoroughly and followed through precisely. In the end, he interpreted the scans in an understandable way while pointing out the pertinent details. He then diagnosed that I needed no further treatment, which was music to my ears. I'd never been to an endodontist before so have nothing with which to compare my visit. Without hesitation, however, I would go back to see Dr. Coston if the need arose. He also had a sense of humor and a warm personality. On a lighter note, I discovered that we had both gone to NYU, separated by about 25 years -- he to their dental school and I to their undergrad and law school -- so we compared notes about our respective student days. I'm definitely going to recommend him to my general dentist as a commendable provider of endodontic services and one who also takes insurance. read more

From the moment I walked into RCT Endodontics in Navy Yard, I knew it was going to be a great experience. The person at the front desk was very friendly, attentive, and professional when I made the appointment for my root canal, and explained everything about my insurance and the cost of the procedure. The assistant who took me in to be seated was really friendly and professional, I mean, nobody ever likes getting a root canal, but I was comforted by her demeanor and how gentle she was with getting the x-rays done. Dr. Coston was so patient and really spent the time to explain what he was going to do and- I know this sounds weird- but actually get me jazzed about getting the procedure done. They allowed the numbing agent plenty of time to do it's job and halfway through when it started hurting, he stopped and would jab me with more numbing agent. I don't think I've ever had a better experience with a root canal than the one I had at Dr. Coston's office. They music was playing and he was singing along, it was actually kind of fun!Dr. Coston said I might have a long recovery time because he really had to dig around in there, but It's only the next day and my tooth already feels SO MUCH BETTER. I'm no longer afraid of getting root canals or having scary dental work done because of Dr. Coston and the whole staff at RCT Endodontics Navy Yard! read more

Outstanding! This was the best root canal I've ever had. Dr. Cotton promised it would be painless and quick. The office staff made it a point to relax my nerves and talk me through the procedure. 10 Stars read more

This was my first experience with a root canal, and I've heard the horror stories, so I was a bit nervous going in. But Dr. Coston immediately put me at ease. After the visit, I went to RCT's website and read about him - his bio says he "prioritizes empathy, compassion, and attention to detail" - and I couldn't think of a better description. He is obviously extremely skilled and experienced, but it's the way he interacts with the patient that sets him apart. The procedure went quickly and smoothly, and to my relief, was nothing like the horror stories. The whole team at Navy Yard clearly cares about the patient. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. Both the check-in and checkout were quick and easy. The office is clean and welcoming - they even had a relaxing playlist on during the procedure. read more

When I first arrived at the practice, it took the receptionist forever to wait on me. Dr. Colston was a little rude and condescending during the procedure.I hope and pray that I will not have to return to this office for dental work. read more

Dr Coston and staff was great. My root canal was painless. He was professional, kind, and knowledgeable about root canals. He deserves a raise. read more

Never thought I would ever "enjoy" a root canal. Great Endodontist, no pain, & outstanding results. And in network insurance coverage with #Cigna. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent experience. Didn't feel a thing during the procedure. Pleasant staff and very thorough Doctor.

Two dentist appointments that result in a referral and a root canal all in one day SHOULD be a nightmare, but Dr. Coston helped me feel at ease and confident in his decision-making and skill. He talked me through my scans as he narrowed down the possible causes of my pain, and completed the root canal in record time. read more

Never in a million years did I think I'd be writing a review for a root canal, but this was undoubtedly the easiest, quickest, most pain-free, and - dare I say it - enjoyable, root canal I've ever had. Everything - from booking the appointment, to checking in, to the procedure itself - was smooth and painless. Both Dr. Coston and his endodontic assistant (I'm so sorry - I've forgotten your name!) were so personable and really put me at ease. No one wants a root canal, but if you need one, I couldn't recommend this practice more highly! read more

They did awesome! I was very nervous and dr Vo made sure I was comfortable and really went above and beyond to accommodate me. A good experience for my first (and hopefully last) root canal read more

I highly recommend Dr. Coston! You won't be disappointed. This was the best dental experience I've ever had in my life. He was efficient, professional and pleasant upon meeting him all my nervous disappeared. He reassured me and made me feel comfortable as he kept me informed through the service. He's very efficient. It didn't take long at all. His office music playlist is FIRE! :-) I hope to never need another root canal but if I do.... Dr. Coston has me as a forever patient. read more

Dr. Coston and his colleagues were outstanding the moment I walked into the suite for my root canal. Dr. Coston was very thoughtful in explaining and prepping me for the procedure. Throughout the procedure, he kept me apprised of the progress while taking his time to explain the details . He prescribed the most effective medication after the procedure. He was very professional in the way he went about his craft . In fact, he added a little bit humor. Finally, I could not have asked for a better experience from my visit. Dr. Coston and entire staff were simply Outstanding! A job well done . read more

After years of frustration with a tooth that had already had two root canal treatments, Dr. Coston and his teammates Keisha and Jaime really made my experience reassuring and positive. From insurance deductible research to relaxing music to very mild soreness during recovery, the entire experience was seamless. I am no longer paranoid about dentistry sounds and pain. I would recommend RCT Endodontics. read more

I went to RTC just over a year and a half ago for a root canal. Had to return today for a follow up since the tooth started bothering me again. The staff at the front desk was very friendly, the office clean as a whistle, Tasha the assistant also very friendly and professional. It's obvious that the entire staff places a high priority on the patients comfort-physically and mentally. Dr Coston has a great chair side manner and takes the time to explain what he sees in X-rays/scans etc. my dentist recommended him to me and trusting her judgment, I knew I'd be in good hands. read more

Can't believe I would say this about getting a root canal but amazing experience. Greeted warmly and professionally by folks at the front desk, a short wait in a very pleasant room, and then started the appointment. Dr Colton and his team were amazing- this was my first root canal and I was nervous having had a few very painful dental experiences before. He explained everything thoroughly and made sure I didn't feel a thing. I knew I was in good hands and the procedure went very smoothly. An hour and a half after getting there I walked out with a perfect root canal and 12 hours later still no pain and much relief from an inflamed nerve. This also happened when I was temporarily on the East coast and the office made sure to send my records to my regular dentist in LA. I highly recommend Dr Colton and his crew to everyone in the DC area - the best of care. read more

Luckily, he only needed to evaluate my situation, but if I ever need additional services, he will be the the one to do it. There was nothing more I could ask of him or his staff. read more

Excellent service and experience. I was terrified of having a root canal but Dr. Chayne Coston's kind and gentle approach made for a great experience. I would highly recommend this RCT and Dr. Coston. read more

Dr. Coston is phenomenal. He's truly the kind of healthcare provider you hope for: knowledgeable, skilled, measured and personable. We're very grateful that he's the endodontist we took our child to after he broke his two front teeth. Dr. Coston has probably seen this type of case many, many times but still gives full presence during appointments. read more

Great experience! I did not wait a minute, evwnthough it was my first visit. Dr. Coston explained the procedure thoroughly and completed my root canal light handedly. RCT is the place to go if you need a root canal treatment. read more
