Friendly staff. Helpful on Financials. Dentist was knowledgeable. No actual work done yet so can't comment on that but he made me feel comfortable.
I had a great experience. The staff at the front, the dental assistant & the dentists were all so accommodating & kind. No one likes getting their teeth work done but when you have such a positive environment it makes the whole experience a breeze. Shoutout to everyone, your hard work is recognized by your patients, thank you.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review – Aspen Dental, Pickerington, OH I had an appointment at Aspen Dental in Pickerington, Ohio on Saturday, November 15th, and overall it was a really good experience. When I arrived, the office was pretty busy. They only had one dental assistant that day (the other had called off), plus just one dentist and one receptionist. Even with the short staff, they handled everything really well. I showed up an hour early hoping to get in sooner, but since they were so busy, I didn’t get called back early—which I understand. The good thing is that they still took me back right on time for my actual appointment, and I was done within an hour. Not bad at all. While I was waiting, they explained the staffing situation to everyone and reassured me that they’d keep me updated. Once I got taken back, they explained it again and let me know the dentist would be in as soon as he could. I probably only waited about 5–10 minutes before he came in. He introduced himself, was very polite, and even though the visit was quick, I completely understood because of how busy they were. He still took the time to talk about why I was there, go over my options, and help me decide the best route. After that, I met with the office manager, who was amazing—super nice, funny, and easy to talk to. We had a lot in common, and he made the whole process smooth. He set me up with all my appointments, worked around my job schedule, and even made sure I’d get my dentures before the holidays—before Thanksgiving, which is incredible. All in all, I’m very happy with my experience at Aspen Dental, and I’m glad to be a new patient there. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone. Update : received my teeth and they are perfect!! I can finally eat with ease !! Thank you Aspen Dental and most of all thank you Dr Amer you were amazing !!

Root canal in Pickerington, OH

If you’re dealing with ongoing tooth pain or infection, a root canal may be the recommended treatment. At Aspen Dental in Pickerington, our care team provides root canal treatment close to home—so you don’t have to wait to feel relief.

What is a root canal?

A root canal is an endodontic treatment that cleans infection inside your tooth so we can save it instead of taking it out. If left untreated, the pulp that has nerves or tissue may die as a result of infection. Left untreated, an infected tooth can cause damage and lead to other issues. At Aspen Dental, your comfort is our priority at every step—we’ll explain everything and keep you comfortable throughout the process. If cost is what’s holding you back, don’t delay your visit—we accept most insurances and financing options—so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

What’s the process of getting a root canal at Aspen Dental?

At Aspen Dental, your comfort is our priority at every step:
1
Initial assessment
We examine the tooth, take X-rays and explain your care plan.
2
Local anesthesia
The affected tooth and surrounding area are numbed completely, so you remain comfortable throughout the procedure.
3
Removing the infection
We carefully remove the infected pulp.
4
Cleaning and shaping
The inside of the tooth is cleaned and prepared.
5
Sealing the tooth
A biocompatible filling material seals the canals to protect the tooth from further infection.
6
Restoring the tooth
Most patients need a crown placed afterward to strengthen and protect the treated tooth for long-term use.

Do I need root canal treatment?

You might need root canal treatment if you notice: tooth pain that doesn’t go away, sensitivity to hot or cold even after the infection is gone, pain when chewing, a cracked or broken tooth exposing the nerve, swelling in the gums or jaw, or a tooth that looks darker than the rest. These are all signs of infection, and by treating it quickly, Aspen Dental could save your tooth.
