Root canal. Dr. Natalia Finn. I was referred to her about 9 months ago for root canal. Dr. Finn was so doggone NICE! The office ladies were very expedient & the billing & money was EASY with my insurance. Most of all, I was afraid/nervous about expecting that surprise dental pain that may come during drilling...it never happened. Dr. Finn injected painlessly; she waited for the stuff to sink in/spread out; she did a quick, PAINLESS root canal! Thanks, Doc! I think I'll be back in a few months for another crown that's going bad after forty-something years. read more

Not that anyone wants to have a root canal, but sometimes we must. Yesterday was my 2nd one with Dr. Finn. I must admit it was a great experience. I walked over from my dentist, they were able to get me in the very next day. I was treated so kindly. They did everything to make me comfortable, gave me the best neck pillow, one for my knees and also had great music playing. Dr. Finn is very kind, gentle and funny. She did a fantastic job numbing me up, made sure I was comfortable as my nerve was on fire. I didn't feel a thing. They gave me a little rest break and I was in and out of there in no time. My first experience was very complicated as the last dentist left a little piece of the tool in my canal. I told Dr. Finn I really wanted to save the tooth. She wasn't sure she would be able to retrieve the instrument but she did and I have never had an issue again with that tooth. So in summary, if you ever need a root canal, please don't be afraid and go see Dr. Finn. Thank you to everyone on staff read more

Dr. Michael Sherman is an exceptional endodontist, and his offices in Vista and Fallbrook are a true reflection of him. From the front office staff to the clinical team in the back, everyone is professional, kind, and incredibly well run. Let's be honest--no one likes getting a root canal. Sometimes they're just necessary. My first experience with Dr. Sherman was during an emergency when my own dentist wouldn't do the procedure, and that's how I found him. More recently, I had another root canal that wasn't an emergency, but still came with plenty of stress. I brought my headphones and listened to relaxing music while Dr. Sherman did his magic. I'm not even kidding--at one point I'm pretty sure I fell asleep! Before I knew it, the procedure was done and I was on my way. Having someone so skilled, calm, and trustworthy makes all the difference when you're feeling vulnerable in the dental chair. I'm truly grateful for Dr. Sherman and his entire team. Thank you for such outstanding care! read more

Amazing staff professional and great work very experienced never any pain and remembers my son from over a year ago and everything going on in his life such an awesome dentist read more

Doctor Sherman does a great job doing a root canal, had one done by him when I had a recommendation from another DENTIST, but he will not see you unless you have a recommendation from another dentist. Trouble is a regular dentist did my root Canal AND ONLY lasted 3 years. Then another dentist re did the root canal and now it's hurting again. Bottom line without having a recommendation, my option is to see another dentist. read more

Dr. Michael Brown and the rest of the doctors as well as the staff here are the most amazing staff and doctors you will ever meet.

They got me in quick, he explained the options and was very professional and his work was very precise. Today I'm able to live without pain meds or pain....He did a great job !! The staff was very nice and professional as well. Thank's to all of them. read more

Whether it's an extraction, a root canal, a crown, or some other procedure, having dental surgery is never a great experience. However, my recent root canal was a very positive and reassuring experience. Natalia V. Finn, D.D.S. (endodontist) and her staff went out of their way to make me feel at ease, calm and comfortable through the whole process during which time Dr. Finn explained in detail every step of the way. The whole team was very professional, informative, compassionate, attentive, kind, and courteous, thus alleviating my anxiety and fear of the dental chair. I was treated with the utmost care and respect. Their dental facility is clean and organized with state-of-the-art equipment. My heartfelt thank you to everyone for the excellent care I received. You did a phenomenal job! read more

Let me start by saying that I keep an ongoing list of my fave dentists/endo docs. It's a list of 50, and at the very bottom are Dr. Szell (Marathon Man), Orin Scrivello, DDS, Hermey (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer), and, topping the list, Dr. Stephanie Jue. She's efficient, effective, compassionate, and fast! Today is the day after a root canal, and I no longer have to live on a diet of Advil, Hydrocodone, and angst for over a month. If you're anxious about a procedure, speak honestly with her and get this sucker done! read more

This review is for my experience with Dr. Natalia Finn, et. al. at Tri-City Endodontics. My experience started with an urgent referral from my regular dentist In early December. Tri-City Endo had me come in immediately to do a root canal and at this time I was expecting one root canal. After my preliminary exam by Dr. Finn, she determined I would need two root canals, what a surprise. The first one was done that day and the second one about three days later. Unfortunately, the second root canal was heavily infected and needed antibiotics to be injected. We waited two weeks for the medicine to work before Dr. Finn could finish the root canal. I no longer have pain and feel a strong recovery from the whole process. From the time I came in for the first appointment, I had nothing less than first class treatment by the office staff and Dr. Finn's assistants. Everyone here really understands the meaning of teamwork to make their patients feel at ease with every stage of the process. I am not fearful of the dentist office, but for those who have fear of the unknown, I can assure you Tri-City Endodontics will put your fears to rest. read more

The service at Tri City MicroEndodontics was courteous, professional, and fast! I don't know anyone that really looks forward to going to the dentist, but this place makes it as comfortable and quick as possible. read more

These professionals and staff put the "end" of trauma in endodontics. As soon as you enter the office, the effort placed in creating a comfortable environment for patients is evident in natural, peaceful animal scenes playing on the television with soft, upbeat music in the background. Front and back office staff are all attentive, punctual, and, get this, they SMILE. Dr. Brown is thorough, efficient, and careful. He exceeds expectations by following up on patients, addressing all questions, and clearly explaining processes and aftercare. Dr. Brown and the entire team eased my fears of having an apicoectomy done. And, I can honestly say I think the procedure was even less painful and terrifying than the initial root canal that was done by the prior dentist who has no association with this practice. I'm so grateful I was fortunate to be referred to this office and I'm looking forward to my body healing as a result. If you're scared of getting work done, it's ok! I promise everyone at this office will take the best care of you and that you'll be in good hands. These are your people. read more

Dr. Brown and his team are very professional, knowledgeable, kind, and caring. This is a very special place to me!

My advice would be to avoid this endodontist. Years ago, I was referred here by myDentist. I called and asked how much the Root Canal would cost prior to my visit. The person on the phone and gave me a cost. When I arrived for my consultation, they charge me an additional almost $200 for the consultation. I communicated that I did not think it was fair since they did not tell me, that the consultation would be an additional fee when I asked the cost of my service. They begrudgingly waived the consultation fee my firsts visit. They should definitely be aware that these services are very expensive and they need to properly communicate ALL fees involved. Recently I was referred to them again for anotherroot canal. When I called, they asked if I can come in that same day for a consultation. I had just seen my dentist. They did x-rays and determined that I needed a root canal. When they asked what tooth it was they told me that they had treated that tooth there in the past. I've had several root canals and I do not recall where each one was performed. When the person on the phone that has records is telling me that they did it there, I'm going to assume that they are correct. I asked if they could use the x-rays that I had already paid for as well as the info from my first visit instead of me coming in for an additional consultation. They told me that they would contact my dentist to get my X-rays and let me know. A little bit later they reached out and told me my dentist was closed the day and they would be getting back to me on Monday. Monday came and went without a phone call. I went ahead and reached back out to them on Wednesday. They assured me that the dentist would be checking my x-rays at the end of the day and get back to me on Thursday. Thursday came and went, Friday came and went. Finally Monday I reached back out to them to see what was going on... First, the person on the phone told me that the dentist has not looked at them. Then she put me on hold and told me that the root canal was not performed there and that I should go back to the person that performed the original Root Canal. This was confusing to me just a week and a half ago They had told me that the service was performed there. If that was the case, I do not understand why they did not just tell me that 10 days ago when I originally called. I had never said that I was unwilling to pay for a consultation. I just asked if they were able to use the x-ray that I already paid for. I never asked them to fix it for free. I was just seeing if they could possibly use the x-rays I already paid for. Evidently this was enough for them to decide they did not want my business... So pretty much I waited 10 days... Finished my antibiotics, now I'm going to have to get on another round of antibiotics before I can get into see another endodontist. Such a frustrating waste of my time. read more

I just had my first root canal yesterday. When I got the news from my dentist I was expecting nothing but money, pain and anxiety. Dr Browns office got me in the day after I called. They were on time, courteous, professional. But what gives the 5 stars is that everything was explained to me, I was given the time to express my fears and ask questions. I started to feel panicky but concentrated on Dr. Browns singing ( although off key LOL). I didn't even really get to thank them because I was kind of still waiting for the hammer to fall. It didn't Thank you Dr Brown and staff !:)))) read more

I could not have had a better experience at this office. Kind, welcoming and very well informed from the front office to the Operatory. Dr. Sherman not only explained the entire procedure thoroughly but provide me with confidence that my root canal would be painless. He delivered! Thanks so much Doc. I highly recommend read more

Dr. Rick Sherman was referred to me by my regular Dentist to look at pain I was having under a crown. It was the best referral that I have ever received for Dental Work!

Added super bonus is Dr. Sherman is a great individual with a great personality! Caring and friendly! Office staff is amazing as well! Punctual, friendly and clean! Highly recommend! read more

As a patient at Torrey Pines Dental Arts in La Jolla, I was introduced to Dr. Michael Sherman (Dr. Richard Sherman's son) after it was discovered I had 2 majorly damaged lower front teeth needing root canals. Dr. Michael (as he's called in La jolla to avoid confusion!) is an Endodontics specialist and performs root canal procedures for Torrey Pines Dental Arts patients one Wed. a month at that location. Though I do not wish root canal procedures upon anybody, he's probably the best person to do it! What a caring and talented individual. And due to the extreme issues in my case, I've "unfortunately" gotten to know him very well over the last few years. During my first visit, He took my request seriously when I asked to not be able to feel ANYTHING and was very generous with the local anesthesia. Ya know, root canals sound very serious and scary and I was terrified of any pain from it (btw, they are not that scary for anyone needing it done - take it from someone who has had multiple ones done on the same teeth!). Also, being concerned for full recovery, he suggested the procedure be done in 2 sessions and he invested the extra time to be completely sure everything was done right (looked closely under the microscope and found an ity bitty 'fin' to take care of, and reworked the area). His attention to detail is uncanny - and appreciated. He finished the job smoothing the area where he drilled perfectly. He had even said that if I end up moving somewhere and go to a different dentist he would still want to see my x-rays down the road. I believe he said, 'even if you move to the Philippines i want them to fax the x-rays to me.' That comment always stuck with me. For whatever reason my mouth never wanted to fully heal and the same horrible pain returned a year later. I've ended up having 2 follow up "consults" and will be going on my 4th (or 5th, ive lost count, haha) drilling session this afternoon! I know by this point you'd think I enjoy doing it or something. But it's all because I've still felt pain and discomfort and Dr. Michael is THAT committed to his patients' teeth and having his work end in success. I think the fact that I find my appts. to be 'just another day' really shows his skill level (i.e. he's brilliant at his specialty) and how painless he makes the process go. I know the words 'root canal' and 'painless' together sounds like an oxymoron but he really does a great job - even when the anesthesia wears off I feel pretty good. yes, i feel like such a trooper B-) My story is just one of many I'm sure. I just cannot say enough nice things about him...he is personable and caring - and very good at sensing when you are in pain or discomfort, constantly checking in with you to make sure you are doing ok while he works. One of my procedures was done up at the Vista location as well, so i was able to find out he staff is just as warm and inviting as he is. They always called me a week after to see how I was doing on his behalf. If I could give 10 stars, I would. He is that wonderful. read more

See all

I never thought I would ever ever need a root canal. But life happens and that's what Tri City Micro is here for. I am so glad I went to this office. I saw Dr. Brown and he was so compassionate, informative, and really listened to my whole story. He got to know me on a personal level which I appreciate as I can get quite nervous with things I do not understand completely. Their team was very accommodating and sweet! He reassured me during the procedure and updated me on what was going on. (He's a great singer too!) I'm so glad Tri City Micro was here when I needed help. Thank you so so much Dr. Brown and team! read more

I was lucky to have Dr Michael Sherman as my endodontist - he took care of several root canals that were not done well before in another clinic. I probably had about 10 sessions with this doctor, and I never had any pain after the procedure, which is a miracle, because I usually do. Dr Sherman was also very considerate and welcoming, making me feel more comfortable and relaxed during each procedure. Very grateful for his outstanding work! read more

I was referred to Tri City MicroEndodontics by my primary dentist to evaluate a recently replaced crown that was experiencing pain and discomfort. Dr. Brown did an advance scan with full examination and determined that a root canal was necessary. He was able to preserve my crown, perform the root canal and immediately alleviate all my pain and discomfort. Dr. Brown and the Tri City team are all very friendly and professional. They worked hard to make me feel comfortable and answer all my questions. I had a very positive experience with Dr. Brown and his team. I would highly recommend this office for all your dental needs. read more

I was a referral from my regular Dentist to Dr Brown at Tri City Endodonics for a root canal in preparation for some implants. The entire experience from the front staff to Dr Browns care was exceptional. I am not one to like visiting the dentist and they all made it comfortable. I highly recommend Dr Brown for his care and gentle treatment. read more

Dr. Monroe was amazing! Went from being in pain for 48 hours to getting a painless root canal and back home same day; all complete; no going back! I couldn't believe it. I know that may not be the case for every patient needing a root canal, but they fit me in same day as well, which is also awesome! He explained everything and is a true professional. I'll never go anywhere else. Highly recommended! From a picky nurse as a patient. :) read more

I cannot wait, I have to share my experience with you. I must to appreciate Dr. Sherman, He has superb technology and rigorous academic attitude. which is cause my tooth's treatment is definitely a successful. Now the tooth has no pain, no sore, and does not any sensitive. Also, it has no hot/cold water switch alert. At before the treatment, my tooth had so bad status; the tooth has multiple bunch of the nerves it is same as the octopus' claws, and the tooth has bad historical damage. But Dr. Sherman use the professional skills to make the case perfect. He is an expert doctor, he deserve to gain five starts! I am so happy, and I am lucky that he is my doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Sherman to use his highest level skill to do root canal. read more

Seriously. No pain during a root canal!? Are you kidding me?. I'm not sure everyone's experience is going to be like mine, but the last root canal I had at my regular dentist was bad! Come here for worry-free dental treatment! read more

I was referred to this office after learning that I needed my first root canal. A root canal? I floss and brush daily, how does this happen? I was terrified and after doing extensive research, I made an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Monroe. He spent over an hour of his time with me answering all of my questions. I had extreme anxiety due to previous dental procedures and he assured me that Root Canals are no big deal and the procedure would be painless. A painless root canal, is he kidding? We have all heard horrid stories about root canals! After determining that as much as I love to eat and the need for keeping my original teeth as opposed to getting dental implants surgically screwed into my gums , (OUCH!) I reluctantly made an appointment. Dr. Monroe was WONDERFUL! He numbed my gums pretty quickly, performed the root canal in about an hours time, all the while making sure I was comfortable and relaxed. He has an awesome bedside manner and definitely kept my anxiety to a minimum. Dr. Monroe is an expert at his craft. Don't second guess your decision, he is a true professional! read more

Second review. This year 2021 needed two root canals, I should be so lucky. One with Dr. Sherman, fast and painless front tooth. Second with Dr. Finn, harder to do since there were extra root structures within back molar and she was facing a tooth that was hard to save. Dr. Finn fixed in what required more than one visit for more than an hour each and was very professional. Saved tooth that might have well been lost. Explained everything superbly. Both are great human beings, as are associates on staff. Sufficient free parking; I have never had to hunt for space. Ask about cash discount. read more

This is an amazing place and I could not recommend it more highly. I've seen Dr. Brown twice now for two root canals and as weird as this sounds I honestly enjoyed them. He's a fantastic and very talented guy and the entire staff there are delightful. If you're worried about having a root canal or some other procedure done I would recommend seeing Dr. Brown or another doctor here because they will definitely take great care of you. read more

Dr. Monroe and his staff provided a really awesome, comprehensive and therapeutic atmosphere for my case. Dr. Monroe took extensive time to discuss my options with myself and my wife which we are very appreciative of.

I was there today to have the second half of my root canal done, yes mine had to be in two parts. I'm on of those special conditions people! Dr. Michael Brown at #TriCityEndodontics is just awesome, very compassionate, knows what he's doing and let's you know ahead what's happening and when it's going to happen. He and his staff respect the fact that I have hi anxiety in the dental chair and cares about you and your well being. He and his staff make your experience as comporting and comfortable as best as possible. They really really care about you. Thank you Dr. Brown and Staff -Michelle To Kim W's question - Happy to say the second half of my root canal went quit well. No pain after the novocaine wore off as compared to two weeks ago when after the novocaine wore of, for 4 days I had a liquid diet, smoothies, yogurt and soup, couldn't even eat Mac n'cheese or turkey chili no bean! Let's pray all stays well for a long time. . I was very protective of that side and just didn't eat on that side so it would calm down 100% by the time I saw him again. I was eating after the 5th day more normal food but kept eating on my good side. Now my mouth is doing well and no pain like before. read more

Wonderful Doctors and Staff. They make you feel like family! Dr. Brown had studied my images prior to being seated by Jennifer. I received a very thorough diagnosis that Dr. Brown explained in layman's terms. Also, thanks to Dillon in the front office for being to nice! Great people! No other endodontist for me and my Family. read more

Dr. Monroe is a very cool, calm, collected type of dude. I was very happy with the communication he provided along the process and thoroughness overall. I hope I take such great care of my teeth that I won't have to be back, but if that happens I know I'll be in good shape! Also- worth noting after I had pain a few weeks later because I failed to go back to my dentist for a crown, his staff helped communicate with me over the phone and had Dr. Monroe call me back to speak with me directly instead of driving all that way for a consultation if not needed. Much appreciated! read more

What a great experience. They were able to fit me in the same day with a referral from my primary dentist. When I arrived the staff was friendly and professional as they walked me through the check in. Once checked in, they saw me right away. I came in with an extremely painful tooth and very anxious about the procedure however Dr. Monroe was fantastic. He and his team explained everything as we went and addressed all of my concerns. I was worried about the pain after the procedure and was pleasantly surprised that there was little to no pain which usually never happens! It was night and day from when I walked in. Very good experience. I would recommend him to anyone in need of endodontic care. Very impressed with the technology as well. read more
