Tony Hsu, DDS

I was shaking with anxiety when I went for my first appointment for root canal with Dr. Hsu. But as soon as I met him he explained the whole procedure and made sure I understood the process. Dr Hsu has a very gentle touch. The only pain/​discomfort I felt was the initial shots. After the procedure I was in absolutely no pain for a few days and then a little pain on the 3^rd and 4^th day. Nothing that 2 Tylenol couldn’t take care of. I had no swelling or even tenderness afterward. I have had tooth cleanings that were more painful than this root canal. His office staff are very accommodating and sweet they even followed up with me the next day to check in.

Dr. Hsu is THE best. He is totally outstanding. He is kind, caring, gentle and virtually painless. His techniques and equipment are cutting edge, and he explains each step of the way. His office staff, both front desk and assisting, are similarly skilled and caring, and go out of their way to be helpful. I can not say enough about how excellent his technique is. Particularly for anyone with fear of dental procedures, especially root canals, this is the doctor to see. I wish he could train all endodontists in his techniques, but wouldn’t want to lose him either! Do yourself a favor and see Dr. Hsu. He is totally awesome, just the best of the best.

While I was sitting in the dental chair at Dr. Hsu’s office this morning I kept mentally reminding myself to write this review!!!
I have severe dental phobia and have had to be sedated for several large cavity treatments in the past (by Dr. Tilken in Rockville) which was wonderful however I was determined to not have to do that again and try the root canal without any meds. I’m glad I did!
I have zero tolerance for pain and I felt absolutely none at all EVER during the entire procedure.
Dr. Hsu and his staff are truly wonderul and I have no fears for my 2^nd visit next week.

Dr. Hsu is as good as it gets… when one’s receiving a root canal that is. Who wants to go and have a root canal?! Well I had to and was dreading it. But as soon as I was put in the chair I was put at ease. He not only has a great view out his office window (as you sit in the chair) but he has a great staff! Super cheerful and very very kind.
When I met Dr. Hsu, we was so so nice and so gentle. He explained everything and went over my xrays with me. Very helpful. When he started the process he explained everything that he was going to do before he actually started doing it.
I never felt pain and he asked me every so often how I was doing. After my first part of the canal they hand you a nice, warm, lemon-​scented towel, a water, Advil and follow-​up with a call the next day to see how you are doing. Nothing was rushed and at one point I even fell asleep in my chair! I kid you not.
If you need a root canal, this doc is The Doc.
