Patient Review
This was my 1st visit to Palmetto Endodontics and I could not be more pleased at the complete process. Ease of scheduling, appointment reminders, short waiting room time, the absolutely nicest staff, outstanding Dr Mayes McEntire. They are the best I have "EVER" engaged with at any office visit for any type of business. The procedure was absolutely pain free to the point I dosed off. Relaxing atmosphere. I just moved to the area and needed to find a great dental/endodontists office and I literally hit the jackpot with this group. I had called multiple endodontics and the pricing is fair in comparison. They are definitely in a class of their own by far. They are Rock Star Status as fas I am concerned.

Patient Review
Not my first root canal, so I have prior procedures to compare this one to. Dr McEntire did a great job. Not totally painless, but he had to go to the end of the tooth to get all the infection. I think he did a great job considering the complications involved. I would ask for Dr McEntire again if I ever need another root canal.
