About Ocean State Endodontics
Ocean State Endodontics operates on Reservoir Avenue in Cranston, Rhode Island. 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 Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.
Endodontic treatment concerns the nerve and pulp inside the tooth, most commonly through root canal treatment and retreatment of a previously treated tooth. Endodontists take on the more complex cases, including teeth with unusual root anatomy or a root canal that did not fully resolve.
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.

Dr. Reynolds and Marissa were fantastic. I was a little nervous going to a new endodontist but my experience was great. Took me in on time (Love that!), explained everything to me, good conversation, made sure I was completely numb and checked in with me during the whole procedure.
I was referred to OSE-Ocean State Endodontics on 1145 Reservoir Ave in Cranston,RI by my primary dental profesional. I wish it never happened, but when you are up to needing these kinds of services, you only hope you get to the right place. It was exactly what happened with me. The best possible way to describe my experience is by saying that when I was receiving my root canal work, I made considerable efforts to not to fall asleep. That comfortable I felt. They exercise a joint approach to the patient that starts with the front desk, continues with the supporting or assistance staff, and ends with the DMD that performs the treatment. I hate rudeness in people, but also fake politeness. However, I am moved by genuine and authentic people—those without a forced smile, or with enough maturity to remain silent rather than offend. Two assistants with whom I happened to interact reminded me, through the simplicity of their gestures, that human values still exist.
Office staff abysmal customer service, doctors are rude, they are totally untrustworthy, they push unnecessary dental work, they should have their operation license revoked. Don't go here!
I saw Dr. Gaudette and his assistant Kate today for a root canal. Going into it I was nervous since I had never had this procedure before and historically I have felt pain with fillings in that same tooth multiple times so I was worried about pain level. I let Kate and Dr. Gaudette know my concerns and they reassured me that the numbing was going to be adequate and they explained the general procedure and they walked me through every step of the process throughout the procedure. They made sure I was comfortable and checked in frequently. The procedure itself was quick, and PAINLESS. Not an ounce of pain was felt. Thank you for providing excellent patient care and ensuring I had the best experience possible. I will absolutely return should I need any further endodontic care and will also be referring my friends and family if they need that care. From the front desk to Dr. Gaudette, an absolute 10/10 experience all the way through!

My first time going here, the receptionist was very kind. Staff was welcoming and understanding they made me feel comfortable, and Dr. Reynolds did a great job with my procedure!! Very understanding and professional!!
First root canal with Dr. Morganti with his assistant Donna, were phenomenal. I was honest with my anxiety and how I will get in my own head and she helped me through the procedure where I felt calm, relaxed and safe. Of course the needles are always main complaint as it’s normal to first feel the pinch but Donna’s bed side manners to put her hand on my shoulder calmed me right down to trust. Dr. Morganti’s personality was great. His calm exterior and occasionally humming helped in the process of keeping me calm and collective. Recommend this team. They answer all your questions and explain procedure in a way it makes sense especially when you’re nervous of what to expect. They genuinely care about you and how to accommodate accordingly.
I was referred to Ocean State Endodontics by my dentist, for an unexpected root canal. They were able to take me immediately, and I saw Dr. Gaudette. From the front desk, to his assistant Kaitlyn, to Dr. Gaudette, my experience here was actually outstanding. It’s not often you feel moved this way. But Kaitlyn was extremely honest, kind, and knowledgeable. Dr. Gaudette was truly excellent. He explained and informed me of the situation, he was honest , detail oriented, respectful and informative. This man has integrity and these days that can be hard to come by unfortunately. Thank you all at this office for helping me, and for doing honest , good work. Corey
I was nervous for my root canal this morning, but the procedure was easy and completely painless. Dr. Reynolds performed my root canal procedure in about 45 mins or less! Her assistant, Marissa, was very kind & explained the entire procedure, making sure I was comfortable. The office staff is very polite & knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this office!
