Southcoast Endodontics

Southcoast Endodontics is a professional dental clinic specializing in endodontic care, with a strong focus on saving patients' natural teeth. The practice has multiple locations in Massachusetts, including North Attleborough, New Bedford, Swansea, and Raynham. The clinic is staffed by a team of professional doctors, including Dr. Mark E. Doherty, Dr. Katherine Lacoste Surprenant, and Dr. Danielle Lacoste Kilmartin, who are committed to providing a high standard of care in a comfortable environment. The clinic's services are centered on endodontics, a branch of dentistry that deals with the treatment of the dental pulp and surrounding tissues. Their primary offering is root canal therapy, but they also provide other specialized services such as endodontic retreatment for previously treated teeth, and management of traumatic dental injuries in both adults and children. Southcoast Endodontics also handles a variety of other procedures for cracked teeth and performs apicoectomies. To ensure the best possible outcomes and patient comfort, Southcoast Endodontics is equipped with state-of-the-art technology. This includes digital X-rays, which significantly reduce radiation exposure, and a Cone Beam Scanner in their New Bedford and North Attleborough offices, which provides a detailed 360-degree, three-dimensional view of the teeth and surrounding areas. They also use specialized operating microscopes to aid in precision during treatments and employ quieter, more efficient electric handpieces. The clinic is also fully certified in the use of the GentleWave® Procedure, an advanced alternative to standard root canal treatment that uses sound waves to clean the entire root canal system. Additionally, for patient convenience and relaxation, the clinic offers amenities like iPods and free Wi-Fi. Southcoast Endodontics prioritizes patient well-being, offering immediate attention for dental emergencies and making every effort to get patients out of pain quickly. They also adhere to strict infection control standards as advocated by OSHA, the Centers for Disease Control, and the American Dental Association. The clinic provides a variety of patient resources, including online forms and information for new patients, to ensure a smooth and informed experience.
