GablesRCT - Dr. Ernesto Paz Jr - DMD & Dr. Eileen M Lujan

Ponce de Leon Boulevard runs north from Coral Gables through the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami, connecting the planned Mediterranean Revival city of Coral Gables to the dense Cuban-American neighborhoods of ZIP 33135. The 45 SW Ponce de Leon Boulevard address places GablesRCT at the northern edge of Coral Gables' influence zone, in an area that serves as a transition between Gables and Little Havana in both geographic and demographic character.

GablesRCT — with "RCT" explicitly signaling Root Canal Treatment — is a practice focused on endodontic care, led by Dr. Ernesto Paz Jr., DMD, and Dr. Eileen M. Lujan. Root canal treatment (endodontics) is the clinical procedure that removes infected or necrotic pulp tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and shapes the root canal system, and fills it with biocompatible material to preserve the tooth structure and eliminate infection. Done properly, root canal treatment saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction.

General dentistry services complement the endodontic specialty focus, providing the diagnostic and restorative context that surrounds root canal treatment — the crown that typically follows RCT to protect the treated tooth, the diagnostic X-rays that identify which teeth need endodontic intervention, and the clinical examination that catches infection before it spreads. The two-dentist team of Dr. Paz and Dr. Lujan provides coverage and practice depth that a solo practitioner cannot offer.

The "Gables" in the practice name signals geographic and market positioning: a practice that, while physically in Little Havana, serves the Coral Gables and surrounding upscale market with endodontic care that might otherwise require travel to downtown Miami or Brickell. Endodontics is a specialty that patients across income levels seek from the best available provider rather than solely on geographic convenience.

For patients in Little Havana, Coral Gables, and the surrounding South Miami-Dade communities who need root canal treatment or endodontic evaluation, GablesRCT at 45 SW Ponce de Leon Boulevard offers specialized RCT care with general dentistry support from a two-clinician team on a corridor connecting two of Miami's most distinctive neighborhoods.
