Patient Introduction

Thank you for your interest in Spring Endodontics, a dental specialty practice dedicated exclusively to endodontic care. By referring you to an endodontic specialist, your family dentist demonstrates a personal concern for the quality of your dental care.

Our expert endodontic team is led by respected endodontic specialists Dr. Shiwei Cai. They are members of the American Association of Endodontists.

We provide the highest standard of professional care in a friendly, comfortable environment. We hope that the information provided here answers many of your questions about endodontic treatment. If you would like additional information, please don't hesitate to contact us at (281)203-0503.


Initial Consultation

If your family dentist feels you may need endodontic treatment, your first appointment will be for a consultation. Our doctor will listen to you, examine the enhanced digital images of your tooth, and do vitality testing. He will then explain your diagnosis and treatment options. On occasion, endodontic treatment can be done the same day as the consultation.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:
  • Your endodontic referral slip, and any X-rays you may have been given
  • A list of medications you are presently taking
  • If you have dental insurance, bring the necessary insurance card or information. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
  • If you have not completed the online information form and forwarded it to us online, please be prepared to provide this at the time of your consultation.

IMPORTANT: All patients under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.)

X-Rays

 If your referring dentist has taken x-rays, you may bring them to our office. However, it is not always necessary. Our advanced digital imaging system will offer us additional diagnostic information necessary for the consultation visit. The cost of this is included in your initial visit with us.


Scheduling


Spring Endodontics is open Monday, Wensday, Thursday and Friday from 9 AM until 5 PM. We will schedule your appointment as promptly as possible. If you have an emergency situation, every attempt will be made to see you that same day.
We know your time is valuable, and thus try our very best to stay on schedule in order to minimize waiting. Not all clinical cases are routine. Although endodontic emergency cases are common, our schedule is designed with flexibility to minimize scheduled patients from waiting. Having explained this, we are generally very close to keeping on schedule.
