About Geric Endodontics

Based on Hodges Boulevard in the Southside area of Jacksonville, Florida, Geric Endodontics is a dental practice serving the area. Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.

Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.

Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

How do I know if I need a root canal?
Common signs are lingering pain after something hot or cold, pain when biting down, a tooth that darkens, or a persistent pimple-like spot on the gum. Diagnosis needs an examination and usually an X-ray, since these can point to other problems too.
What happens if I do not get a root canal?
The infection inside the tooth does not resolve by itself. It typically progresses to an abscess and can spread into surrounding bone, and the tooth is far more likely to be lost. Extraction becomes the alternative once the tooth cannot be saved.
Is it normal for teeth to be sensitive to cold?
Mild, brief sensitivity is common and often relates to exposed root surfaces or worn enamel. Sensitivity that lingers after the cold is removed is more significant and worth having examined, as it can indicate the nerve is involved.

The BEST dental experience EVER! 💯 I still can’t believe I had a root canal on Monday! Everyone was professional, the facility was spotless, and the assistant was WONDERFUL! ❤️ If I have any more issues, I’ll definitely be returning to Dr. Geric, Endodontist. Highly recommend! 👏🏻 — Dena Cook

I initially had an appointment scheduled with another endodontist more than a week away, but my pain became too unbearable to wait. After a weekend of barely tolerable pain, I called Geric Endodontics, and they went above and beyond to squeeze me in very early the next morning for a consultation. Even better, I was able to return that same afternoon for treatment. The office runs like a well-oiled machine, with every team member performing their role expertly. The office is equipped with the latest and greatest technology, and everyone was kind, courteous, and professional. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel cared for and at ease. The dental assistant explained everything that would happen and showed me the different devices that would be used during each step of the process, which I appreciated very much. Nothing was a surprise. Dr. Geric was exceptional. He explained each step of the procedure calmly and clearly as he worked, which made an experience I had been dreading feel surprisingly comfortable. His reassuring manner and constant attention to my comfort made all the difference. I’m incredibly grateful that Dr. Geric and his team were able to see me so quickly when I was in severe pain—and then provide such compassionate, comfortable care. I highly recommend Dr. Geric and his entire team to anyone needing an endodontist. Jacksonville is extremely fortunate to have such specialized care available.

Dr. Geric is who you need if or when that dental issue arises. He is flanked by a wonderful team with the latest in dental imaging and laser technology. I just experienced my first root canal and everything I’ve heard in the past was neutralized with modern techniques and experience. Thank you Dr Geric and Team 👍

Dr. Geric is an absolutely amazing endodontist! From the very beginning, he took the time to explain everything that was happening during my procedure, so there were no surprises at all. He made sure I was comfortable the entire time and that I was not in any pain, which made the whole experience so much easier. His staff was also wonderful!! Extremely friendly, caring, and professional. I had such a positive experience and truly felt like I was in great hands. I highly recommend Dr. Geric to anyone needing an endodontist. He and his staff are exceptional!

Absolute BEST experience. From the friendly office staff when booking my appointment (which I got in fast!) to the actual visit. The tech who took me back, professional, very kind and reassuring, VERY knowledgeable. Dr. Geric was very approachable and made me feel at ease immediately. Talked me through the whole procedure and made absolutely sure I was comfortable the WHOLE time. Top notch. Not that I want another root canal but I will absolutely be recommending this office to anyone who needs one.

Dr Geric did my root canal and it was the smoothest procedure ever!! I was pretty nervous about getting it done but Laura and Dr Geric reassured me and made sure I was comfortable through the whole process. One thing I really appreciated was the frequent check ins to make sure I was doing ok through out, because sometimes if something is bothering me I won’t speak up. But sure enough I was comfortable the whole time!! If you need to see an endodonist or you get referred here for anything, you will be in great hands!! Overall very smooth, professional, and experienced. 10/10 experiences

Chris was a master in creating solutions, explaining in great detail and executing with flawless perfection. Hopefully I don’t have to come back; but if you need a root canal this is the ONLY place to go
