Expert endodontic care that saves your natural tooth comfortably and precisely.
Microscopic root canal therapy is used to “save” a tooth when the nerve becomes infected or the pulp is damaged. Root canals are performed on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, & alternating Sundays.
Originally from Atlanta, Dr. Babak Gholami is a patient-centered general dentist with advanced training endodontics. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Georgia before moving to New York to attend NYU College of Dentistry.
Dr. Gholami completed a General Practice Residency at Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn, where he gained extensive experience managing complex cases. He trained under experienced cosmetic dentists, oral surgeons, endodontists, and general practitioners, honing his skills across a wide range of procedures. He is a member of The American Association of Endodontists and the Second District Dental Society.
Known for his steady presence and thoughtful approach, Dr. Gholami is committed to delivering care that is both efficient and personalized. People have described him as “professional,” “gentle,” and “reassuring” during treatment. He’s comfortable adapting to different systems and treatment philosophies and brings a collaborative mindset and strong clinical perspective to every interaction.
From diagnosis to recovery, our goal is to make every step comfortable, precise, and stress-free.
For new patients, your first visit will either be a limited exam and x-ray with a general dentist, or a 30-minute consultation with a provider who offers root canas. In both cases, our goal is to provide an accurate diagnosis and determine whether a root canal is the right treatment for you. If you’re in pain, we’ll take steps to help you feel better right away and then schedule your treatment. If time allows, we may even be able to begin treatment the same day.
Your provider will carefully remove the nerve and pulp of the tooth, then clean and seal it to stop infection and restore health. We use a high-powered microscope to make the procedure as precise and minimally invasive as possible. While root canals are often thought of as scary, our modern techniques and gentle approach make the experience surprisingly easy. Your comfort is always our top priority.
Following your root canal, we’ll likely recommend protecting the treated tooth with a crown. Because the nerve and blood supply have been removed, the tooth becomes more fragile. A strong, natural-looking crown helps restore full function and improves the long-term success of the tooth by up to six times.
