Alan T Goodman, DDS MS LLC

Seriously best experience I’ve ever had with someone doing dental work. I just got a root canal less then 3 hours ago and Dr. Goodman and his assistant Gloria made me feel right at home and comfortable. They went through the process step by step and made sure I was doing okay throughout the procedure. It didn’t hurt at all only a little and when I mean little I mean little uncomfortable just the numbing part. AMAZING JOB!

Dr. Patel (19^th Street Dental) highly recommended Dr. Goodman for endodontics. I was planning to get two root canals here. After making his own high resolution x-​rays of the two teeth and measuring all the pockets around all my teeth, Dr. Goodman told me that the two teeth in question simply could not be saved because of the severity of my bone loss surrounding the teeth. Sure he could do root canals on the teeth, but all that work and expense would be futile if the root canal would fail within a few years when the tooth fell out (NOT because of a poorly executed root canal). Dr. Goodman even called my dentist to discuss their diagnoses of my condition before confirming that those two teeth were definitely not salvageable. Dr. Goodman was really concerned about the severity of my periodontal disease, and he made it clear that the root canals would be futile in my case. He did not want to waste our time and my money. Although Dr. Goodman turned me away, I really appreciated Dr. Goodman’s HONESTY and high level of professional responsibility.
By the way, I noticed that Dr. Goodman’s digital x-​rays have the highest resolution by far out of all the dental xrays I have ever taken in Atlanta (compared to 19^th Street Dental and Dr. Bruce Edelstein’s).
Without dental insurance, the endodontal evaluation/​xray fee altogether was $ 135.
