Dr. Arita and his team are the best! My regular dentist office staff directed me to him for my root canal, and it seriously was the most pleasant experience I could have ever imagined after hearing so many horror stories of other persons different bad experiences at other places! The staff at Dr. Arita’s office are all very friendly and welcoming, and Dr. Arita himself was very thorough in explaining the procedure and definitely knows his business! I highly recommend this team!

Drill phobia… check, needle phobia… check, check,… I am simply phobic about anything dental. After I shattered a back tooth, I went to another dentist who didn’t want to touch it, he referred me to Dr. Arita. Apparently Dr. Arita is «the man» according to the first dentist I saw. Their office called Dr. Arita’s office and they fit me in the same day. Ended up needing a root canal. But the doc was great, shots were essentially painless and I was in and out in less then an hour. Very little pain once I got home. Can’t ask for more than that.

I have had several unsuccessful and painful root canals by specialists in the area. Somehow I found Dr Arita and never had those problems again. He gives a shot that is very near painless, which is important to me as I am somewhat dental phobic. He also explains what he is doing in detail. I know I always present with a difficult case, but Dr Arita can handle it! I know other endodontists would just say to pull the tooth but this guy is fiercely determined to get the job done and save the tooth. At my age this is important as my teeth are dropping like flies, despite the best of care! His staff is also very nice and friendly. I highly recommend!!!

When I read these positive reviews I was skeptical… however, I have been made a believer in Dr. Arita! The entire staff is so pleasant and Dr. Arita is gentle and talks you through the whole thing… He keeps you engaged which was awesome for my anxiety! I felt no pain and the whole experience was actually pleasant!!! If i need another root canal, he will be my guy… I do hope not to ever need his services again…

Never thought a root canal could be a good experience but Dr. Arita made it so! Wonderful doctor. I had a root canal that was still giving me great sensitivity, I was referred to him by my regular dentist and managed to see him the same day. It didn’t take him long to figure out exactly what was causing my pain and the very next day I was scheduled for a correction procedure. He took plenty of time administering the anesthesia and I felt absolutely nothing during the entire process. He has an amazingly calming and straight forward attitude that immediately puts you at ease as it is obvious he knows exactly what he’s doing. He talked though out the process which I found very reassuring — he’s also great fun to listen to! The office staff were very efficient and professional and they managed to work around my insurance issues for which I am very grateful. Can’t recommend Dr. Arita enough.

Dr. Stein referred me to Dr. Arita too. I put off calling Dr. Arita’s office for way too long… When I finally called, his office promptly got me in for an appt within a few days. Dr. Arita’s staff was very pleasant. Dr. Arita himself was very nice and explained everything to me in great detail. Unfortunately, my tooth was too far gone for him to save, so he had to refer me to an Oral surgeon. But… If I ever need a root canal, I’m coming back here!

Ben Stein DDS referred me to Charles Arita M DDS when he saw I needed a root canal. Root canals is all that Dr. Arita does and it shows. It was the best root canal I have ever had. I have only had one other but it was so bad that I avoided dentists at almost any cost. Which is why I needed another root canal. The local anaesthesia(shot) was almost painless and accurately removed the pain from the affected area. During the procedure Dr. Arita constantly spoke to me to inform and distract me. It was almost pleasant other than having to hold my mouth open for an hour or so. Afterwards I only needed some naprasin for a couple of days to easy the pain. If I ever need a root canal again in whatever area of the country I find myself I think I’ll fly back to Dr. Arita’s office. Tip: Dr. Arita informed me during the procedure that the best time to go get such a procedure is during the middle of the year. At the beginning and at the end of the year patients are flooding the medical offices to use up their medical benefits or finish a procedure that was started at the end of the year. So if you plan correctly and get your dental work done in the middle of the year the doctors are less stressed and appointment are easier to get.
