I had a great experience at RCT Endo. Dr Orgel was friendly, cordial, and professional throughout the entire root canal process. The procedure itself was quick and painless; took about an hour to treat #2. I also overheard him giving a consult next door to me and he seems like he knows his stuff. No one ever wants a root canal, but if you do need one, this is a great option. read more

I mean- no one wants a root canal, but if you have to get one, this is the place to do it. Every staff member I had contact with -- from the front desk staff to the endodontist--was friendly, kind, and helpful. Every question I asked (and I asked a lot of them-- I wanted to understand the steps of the procedure) was answered patiently and thoroughly. read more

I was scheduled for a possible Retreatment/Apico with Dr Adam Orgel. I was having some issues with a rear molar that had a cap, combined with a root canal. After doing several tests including a CT and examining it, he determined that I didn't need the procedure. I was relieved. I can see why he was rated number one dentist in the Washingtonian. He was cheerful and polite. The whole staff from the front desk to all the technicians were so friendly and professional. I highly recommend them for endodontic procedures. read more

Had an excellent experience at RCT endodontics with Dr. Orgel! I came in with a referral from my dentist and only loose guidance about whether I truly needed a root canal. Dr. Orgel was outstanding. Knowledgeable , patient and easy to understand. What stood out most was his honesty. He asked questions about my symptoms, took the time to listen, and was very clear about what I did need to do and just as importantly what I did not need to do. There was zero pressure and no sense of upselling. He even offered to contact my dentist directly to get a clearer picture before making final recommendations. His front desk staff (Klara) was very friendly and helpful and I didn't have any wait time. If you're looking for a root canal specialist who is thorough, ethical, knowledgeable, with a good team, these guys are a good bet. read more

I wish that ALL medical offices and personnel were as friendly and easy to deal with as RCT. From the pre-visit courtesy call through my root canal, all the way to check-out, this was a very good experience. Dr. Orgel is a pleasant and capable dentist who made me feel at ease. I really appreciate the treatment I received at RCT Silver Spring! read more

Dr. Orgel took care of my second root canal I've had done with him today and I felt no pain. I like that he explains everything before he does the work and then step-by-step as he's working he explains what's happening and what he sees. His voice and personality are reassuring and comforting. I thought I might need Nitro, but it wasn't necessary! Dr. Orgel is out of network for me, but I wouldn't want to go anywhere else! The practice has excellent dental hygienist and reception staff. They went above and beyond to file for me even out of network. read more

The staff was caring and supportive. Dr Siegel immediately made me feel comfortable and heard. He evaluated me and explained why I did not need a root canal procedure. The infection was not in the tooth but in the gum. He then made a plan for me. I feel Dr. Siegel is a wonderful find. His office got me in the next day which is so important when one has an infection. I am so thankful they were there for me. read more

My appointment was with Dr. Orgel at Silver Spring. From the first call, speaking with Carla, who was fabulous, to Daisy, who was awesome ( Dr.Orgel's assistant), to Dr. Orgel, who was fantastic, my appointment was THE BEST root canal I've ever had, pain-free, quick, and Dr. Orgel answered my many, many questions in detail, a consummate professional with a comforting and enjoyable chairside manner. And the bill wasn't crazy. I need another root canal soon; without a doubt, I'll return. The office was very, very clean, nice, and not crowded. Appointments were spaced nicely, so patients do not feel rushed through their concerns. I obsessively research doctors and their reviews. All of them are true; look no further. RTC is THE right choice! Thank you, Dr. Orgel, Carla, and Daisy!!! Terri read more

Needed urgent care and Karla was able to fit me in! Painless experience, friendly staff, would definitely recommend for endo needs

Dr. Adam Orgel did an outstanding job on my very complex root canal procedure, and I'm extremely grateful!! My regular dentist referred me to their practice, and I'm very happy he did. Dr. Orgel found the two "hidden" root canals, and worked very patiently and carefully to remove all tissue. This was a complicated case, and I'm pleased to report that I had nearly zero pain afterwards, an amazing outcome considering how my jaw usually responds. I would give them 10 stars if yelp let me! read more

Getting a root canal is probably the last thing anyone wants to do, but I have to tell you: at RCT Endodontics, the procedure really is fast and (aside from the pinch from the initial injection of the numbing agent) painless. I have had two root canals at RCT now (both with Dr. Orgel), and I highly recommend them. The procedure itself took about 30 minutes. Everyone there was friendly and professional, the offices were well maintained and clean, and like I said, the whole thing was basically painless. Root canals don't have to be scary any more! read more

Have been waiting for a claim to be completed for months. Have yet to hear back. Left several messages to no avail. All I receive is a balance due bill after I was advised by their billing department that I would actually be receiving a credit for the amount I paid at the time of my appointment because they were backed up on claims. DO not trust them. read more

Dr. Orgel & his assistant are the best! I had a root canal done and was feeling super nervous. They were so caring & patient as well as professional. Loved this place. read more

The Endodontist bedside manner was/is like a "BUG". . Blunt, Uncaring, Grungy The office personnel was Friendly. read more

Dr Adam Orgel was an exceptional and honest DDS. Not sure why my General dentists didn't realize I needed a bite adjustment? He made the adjustments but still recommend I go back to my General Dentists if I still feel a slight discomfort. Dr Orgel also recommended a retreatment on tooth number 13 which was done 10 years ago. Hopefully when I'm ready for the retreat Dr Orgel will still be in the DMV area fingers cross. read more

I had a great experience at RCT. I was initially very nervous about getting a root canal, but this experience made me realize it's not so bad after all. Dr. Taylor had great bedside manners and made me felt at ease. He did an amazing job, and the only pain I felt was a slight prick from the anesthesia injection. The staff were also all very nice. Additionally, I liked that the consultation and treatment are all in the same appointment. This saves me money and a trip back. read more

I had my first Root canal treated by Adam W. Orgel, DDS, MS and I was very pleased with his services. The office double checked the treatment needed and followed through with co-payment in advance. I highly recommend! read more

The staff at the Silver Spring location were fantastic. I was referred to Dr. Orgel by my dentist (also amazing). Needless to say, I was super-nervous about my appointment but Dr. Orgel has the most amazingly warm presence, I was put at ease instantly, he listened to my concerns, and he communicated openly with thoughtfulness. The staff is also great - responsive and proactive in informing me on my insurance coverage as they phoned me in the days before my appointment to give me a cost estimate based on my insurance. read more

Not only is Dr. Orgel the quintessential professional in his field with knowledge and skill but his genuine concern for his patients comfort and understanding of his process is real. My dental situation was complex but he persevered through two attempts to resolve the problem and without me accumulating exorbitant charges. It is obvious that he is diligent in maintaining a reputation for excellence. read more

I just suffered through my first root canal. Hours later I still feel no pain. Thanks, Dr. Orgel for your excellent service!

I saw Dr. Taylor for the first time today, and he had exceptional bedside manners. He was thorough in checking my teeth, complete in the information presented to me, and warm. The root canal was fairly painless and quick. Hopefully that's the end of the toothache! I'd highly recommend Dr. Taylor. The rest of the staff were also friendly. There was some confusion at the front desk during check in, but hoping that was just a fluke. read more

I deeply regret ever stepping foot into this place. Dr. Awaddi had the poorest patient manner I've ever experienced--condescending, impatient, talking to me as if I was a child. I will always wonder why I didn't listen to my gut and get up and walk out. Instead I let him perform a root canal. As it turned out, the minor pain I had prior to the procedure became major pain that is still with me two months later. The general consensus from several other specialists I have since seen is that the root canal was completely unnecessary as the issue is clearly with a different tooth and might not even be stemming from a crack at all. The office never performed a CBCT scan (which I've since learned is a frontline diagnostic tool) and the doctor used his "best guess" about which tooth was the issue even though nothing major showed up in x-rays. I guess he's just a drill-happy kind of guy. I've now spent about $1,500 for treatment that made my issue worse, and got to meet a subpar human along the way. So yeah, highly do not recommend. read more

Wonderful staff top to bottom, with clean office, professional and kind interactions and honest assessment highly recommend

Ask about their fees before they do anything. $2,000 for a root canal. $300 for any consultation. If you give them your dental insurance but the insurance company site is down, they charge you the total amount. They do this even if your referring dentist has sent them your insurance numbers, and they know you have good insurance. read more

I've seen Dr. Orgel four times over the past few years, and he's been consistently amazing! He's both professional and friendly, not to mention experienced and skilled. My experiences couldn't have been better. read more

My first time coming here I just went to get an evaluation. Dr.Taylor was the one I went to go see. He told me that my wisdom tooth looked healthy regardless of the crack that took place. (I cracked my wisdom tooth) It took me about 3 weeks to decide if I should pull my wisdom teeth or just get the root canal. The pain was unbearable so I went to get it done by Dr.Taylor. I walked in today (8/29/17 @10:00am) to get my Root canal done and the front desk lady (I wish I knew her name; she lives in Bowie, thats all I can remember ) was so friendly and welcoming. She provided GREAT customer service. Then Carla (Which I believe is the assistant) was AMAZING! Can I tell you she gives off the best motherly feel in case you have bad nerves like I do when it comes down to ANY surgeries. She helped Dr. Taylor throughout my whole procedure. Dr. Taylor is a GREAT oral Surgeon. If you want the BEST service please go see him. If you are scared to get an oral surgery done and you want to go somewhere that you KNOW they will take care of you? Go see him. I am a PICKY person and I only recommend the best. He is just that. I am going to make a youtube video about my first ROOT CANAL experince with him. So if you are interested in watching the video go on the search box and type "ILOVEPRETTYJAZZSHOW" all in one word. in the next few weeks. :-) I still have to heal up. Thank you for the great service Doctor Taylor. read more

See all

Although Dr Orgel was very pleasant and seemed genuinely concerned, he did not fix my issue - if anything, I left in more pain than when I came in with. I was there for a follow up to a root canal I had in April which was done by a different doctor who's bedside manner was horrific. He was brusque, dismissive and frankly, I think rushed through my root canal (why else would I still have pain 2+ months later)? In 2016, I had a root canal done by Dr. Taylor at the practice; he was exceptional and completely fixed my tooth. I know doctors aren't miracle workers but I'm rather dismayed that they cannot find and fix the problem read more

This was a completely painless and very quick root canal. less pain than I have experienced getting a routine filling and quicker too. This is a feat because i have a severe gag reflex and very high anxiety around teeth pain which usually causes phantom anxiety pain when I am numbed up. This usually makes me the most annoying patient to do work on. Their care was so good, I never once had to say sorry for stopping treatment to cough or wince from pain (anxiety pain or real pain). I would recommend them to anyone. If I ever need a root canal again, they would be the only place I would agree to go to. read more

I absolutely loved my office visit today with Doctor Orgel and staff. The doctor has an awesome personality! he and his staff very professional, I didn't feel rush how some doctors make me feel. He and staff very personable, kind and full of smiles. Dr. Orgel took his time to explain everything in detai which I truly appreciate. The front off staff amazing as well, extremely helpful and very friendly. I would truly recommend the Silver Spring practice 100%. read more

Dentegra has them listed as in network for the Dentegra discount for AARP Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan holders, but their billing department says they are not part of the plan and were generally rude about it, as if people on Medicare are not worth bothering with. The screenshot shows that they are indeed part of the network for this discount program (or at least Dentegra believes they are). It's quite disappointing. read more

RCT Endodontics - Endodontists Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

They were fantastic, from the receptionists who were very helpful and polite, to the dental assistant who made me feel at ease to the doctor who listened, was careful, and didn't take long to complete a root canal retreatment. And, it didn't hurt at all. They were fantastic. Thank you! read more

About as painless a root canal as I can imagine. Two thumbs up! And got a same day emergency appointment to boot!

This was my second visit with Dr. Orgel and his staff and once again I am thoroughly pleased with the care that I received. I went in today with a swollen face/reinfected root canal (something (the pain) I've never experienced) and he walked me through the entire process explaining every detail as he went along. Everyone was so friendly and professional, I'm just glad that I was referred to him. read more

Everyone from reception to surgical team was extremely cordial and caring. Dr Taylor was very gentle and showed compassion prior, during and post surgical procedure. The surgery was painless and done in a very timely fashion. Would definitely recommend RCT and I've frequented both Silver Spring and Bowie locations and received the same professional treatment from staff and Dr Taylor. read more

Root canal with Dr. Mark. The actual procedure itself took like 15 minutes tops. Tooth #10 (top, next to front tooth = easy access). Granted, my regular dentist had attempted to get through but too much calcification prompted her to send me to RCT to finish the job. Nerve was completely eroded so no oozing etc to complicate things. Professional courteous staff. Was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. read more

What a great experience. I had a root canal at 7am (hours are very conducive for working individuals) with Dr. Ogel (assisted by the very warm and customer friendly Jade). I don't think I have ever been to an office with such great customer service. It was almost like staying at the Four Seasons lol. You become so accustomed to poor service (which is why I left my prior Endodontic practice), that when the service is great you are kind of stunned by the experience! I needed that refreshingly great encounter for my second root canal in a week's time Even the front desk/accounting staff were pleasant...again, so rare! I will definitely be returning for future root canals (unfortunately I know my teeth and I will need another ) and highly recommend this practice! Almost a week out and I needed maybe a day's worth of Motrin. Very minimal pain! read more

This was my second root canal at RCT with Dr. Orgel. To say it was a non-event would be an understatement. There was zero pain aside from the initial "pinch" of the anesthetic. When I say zero... I mean zero. I was in and out of there in an hour total. I recommend Dr. Orgel without reservation. read more

I highly recommend Dr. O. He is very competent, knowledgeable, and kind. The staff is also so easy to deal with. I highly recommend this office. read more

Great place, very friendly, knowledgeable. Dr. Awadi did a great job with the root canal no pain at all. Thank you

Having a root canal done is never fun Dr Taylor at RCT ENDODONTICS made the experience so much more bearable. I've heard horror stories about root canals but I can't even relate. They did everything possible to make sure I was safe comfortable and informed about what was going on. The facilities and there practices are state of the art and their customer service is top notch. I hope never to have need of dental surgery but if I do, RCT ENDODONTICS will be my first choice! Thanks again, Dr Taylor and staff (forgive me for not listing your names here!). read more
