We use ultra-gentle numbing techniques and state-of-the-art instruments that are virtually silent and offer minimal vibration.
If you are nervous or anxious, oral sedation and nitrous oxide are available.
We also partner with a skilled Anesthesiologist for any patients that may want IV sedation.
"I love what I do. It may seem different, but since I was young I had always wanted to be an Endodontist, so it's no accident I'm doing what I enjoy."
"Endodontics incorporates many of the things that I'm passionate about in life: caring for people, solving problems, and working with my hands."
"I find great pleasure in the skill and focus that endodontics requires and believe it’s a true intersection of art and science.”
Together, Dr. Carina Lea, Dr. Sarah Nash, and Dr. Ben Studebaker have more than 40 years of clinical experience and many thousands of successful root canal procedures to their credit.

Dr. Lea, Dr. Nash, and Dr. Studebaker perform these procedures with the skill and soft touch you will truly appreciate, which is why they are trusted by many Seattle area dentists for their patients who need endodontic treatment.
