I have had dental issues most of my life, despite good hygiene habits. I became a patient of Dr. Sitaram's several years ago, and have had positive experiences with his work. I have had a root canal, and several crowns. He is always, gentle, makes sure I'm not in pain, and his work lasts! When I ended up with an abscess, and getting a tooth pulled in 2015, he worked with me and my insurance to minimize my out-of-pocket costs. The extraction was smooth, and the implant fits well, feels good, and works like a normal tooth. By the way, the few times I declined his recommended treatments to save money or because the tooth felt just fine, I have always regretted it. I always ended up with a toothache or losing a very old filling within a couple of months. He's an honest, gentle, thorough dentist.
