Home > Root Canal (Endodontics)
Dr. Bursich really enjoys doing root canals to help patients save as many of their natural teeth as possible. Most patients really appreciate the fact that he can do your root canal procedure right in his office, saving you from having to visit multiple doctors.
Most people have bad experiences with root canals because they did not numb properly. To make sure that you are the most comfortable, Dr. Bursich prescribes you an antibiotic to take before the procedure to ensure that you will numb properly and you will experience minimal discomfort.
Dr. Bursich will also prescribe you pain medication to make sure you will be as comfortable as possible.
Before recommending root canal therapy we collect a thorough history of any symptoms and perform an examination including dental x-rays. This aids in the accurate diagnosis of any tooth that may be suspected of needing root canal therapy. Dr. Bursich’s root canals are fast and comfortable thanks to the use of motorized rotary instruments and local anesthetic. A rotary instrument is a handpiece which allows Dr. Bursich to clean and shape the canals faster than using traditional hand files. If properly performed, and under normal circumstances, a root canal-treated tooth can last you a lifetime.

Correctly referred to as Root Canal therapy; it is a dental procedure that is used to repair and save a tooth whose pulp is badly decayed or infected. The pulp is the living part of the tooth made up of nerves and blood vessels. It can become infected or die through various reasons including decay, trauma and deep or incorrectly-placed fillings. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed.

Posted on bill draperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Courteous and professional staff. Dr. Bursich takes the time to answer all your questions. I have had deep cleanings, fillings and an extraction done. I am very happy to have found them. I would recommend them to everyone needing dental care!Posted on Harvey SnyderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Friendly. Thorough. Professional. Well organized. Collaborated well with other dental firm when it was needed.Posted on Gail NaftzgerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sterling Dental is great. Went in for my 6 month check up and everyone I saw took great care of me. Nelson did my cleaning. He was extremely gentle as he knows I have very sensitive teeth. Highly recommend this dental office!!Posted on Team KamatoyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a really great experience overall. Dr. Azim (or Asim—my apologies if I’m spelling it wrong) was excellent, and I truly felt that he cared about me as a patient. The day before, I saw another dentist at a different clinic who quickly looked at my tooth and told me I needed a root canal and crown, quoting me over $1,700 with my Aetna High Dental PPO. In contrast, Dr. Azim took his time to properly assess my broken tooth. He did a careful exam—some scraping and tapping—and since I wasn’t in pain, he explained that I might not actually need a root canal. He basically saved my tooth and my wallet—lol. Their clinic also doesn’t overcharge. Truly a blessing. I did have to come back the next day because there was an issue with the temporary crown that was supposed to be placed during my first visit. I realized when I got home that it wasn’t actually there, which meant my tooth was left exposed. To be fair, the first dental assistant was pleasant, and I could tell she was trying her best—she may have been time-pressured since it was close to closing. When I first called about the issue, there seemed to be some miscommunication, and I was initially given information that didn’t align with what Dr. Azim had explained regarding the temporary crown. However, after I clarified that a temporary crown had been planned, they were very accommodating and asked me to come in right away. That said, they handled the situation really well. I was able to get an appointment the very next day within minutes of calling, and I was seen by another excellent dentist, Dr. Bursik (again, apologies if I’m spelling the name wrong). Dr. Bursik and his assistant were amazing—professional, kind, and efficient. The assistant was gentle and clearly very skilled; she was able to properly fit the temporary crown in just a couple of minutes, which was the complete opposite of my initial experience. Overall, despite the hiccup, I truly appreciate how the clinic handled the issue and the level of care provided by both dentists. I’ve already booked an appointment for my husband, and we will definitely be repeat customers!Posted on hannah stevensTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so happy with this dentist office!! Dr. Tammareddy was able to fit me in for a 9am emergency filling appointment that I booked at 10pm the night before. The fillings were done perfectly and she made me feel at ease through the whole process once I made her aware that I am not a fan of going to the dentist. She walked me through everything she was going to do and kept making sure I felt okay during the filling. I also loved the rest of the office staff!! Everyone was so welcoming and kind!!Posted on Robin ThomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Friendly professional on time experiencedPosted on mariluz velandiaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's a good dentist, the staff are awesomePosted on Ray XuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a major billing communication issue where the front desk collected a family member's balance without my consent. However, the Office Manager Sarah reached out immediately, apologized, and resolved the situation professionally by refunding the charge and separating our accounts. I appreciate the swift resolution, but I hope they improve their front desk protocols.Posted on D. Paul JenningsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Bursich and his staff have been taking good care of me and my wife for years.
