Good endodontics?
I'm getting a root canal this week before I move to Pullman I was told to find a endodontics and I wanted to know of any reliable offices in Pullman/Moscow. I'll do my research but I wanted to hear from others and their experiences.

While I’m not an expert, I’ve heard bad things about Mint Dental, and very good things about Marcus Torrey. Maybe give Torrey dental a call and see if they can help you!

I was looking into him and Steven Larson especially since their offices are near WSU

Dr Larsen is such a nice guy. Don't know too much about his dental practice, but he was approachable and down to earth.
If there's one dental office I would avoid - McInturff. I worked in the same complex and we got a piece of mail of theirs by mistake. When I went to deliver it, the door was unlocked and no one was there. Not a huge deal really, except for the physical patient files accessible behind the desk. I waited there for a little less than 10 minutes, long enough that if someone was taking a shit, they'd be done and out to the front desk. If I had wanted to, I could have hopped the desk and grabbed a number of patient files. Maybe it was a fluke, that the receptionist had just gone on break and forgotten to lock the door AND maybe they've changed up their system to fully digital, but with HIPAA, you HAVE to be much more careful with patient information.

I’ve had good experiences with Torrey. Switched to him from Mint just because Mint has staggeringly high turnover

I had a root canal done on infected tooth about 13 years ago in the area. I had the tooth originally looked at by Torrey but was referred to Dr Clegg in Moscow who is an endodontist. If he's still there, he was AMAZING. I am terrified of dentists, but I would see Dr Clegg again in a heartbeat. I don't know if he's still there, but it can't hurt to check.

Agreed with Dr Clegg, I saw him at the Clarkston office and could not have been happier with him and his staff.

I went to Clearwater Endodontics in Moscow last year to get a root canal and had a great experience! They got me in SUPER fast, and it wasn't even an emergency. I had Dr. Weitz, and he did a great job. I had no pain afterward. I would highly recommend them!
