About Root Canal Specialists

Root Canal Specialists operates on North Oracle Road in Tucson, Arizona. Holistic, or biological, dentistry applies standard dental diagnosis and treatment within an approach that emphasises material choice and conservative treatment, considering oral health as connected to the body more broadly rather than treating the mouth in isolation.

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.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

Is biological or holistic dentistry more expensive?
It can be, since ceramic and composite materials and more conservative techniques sometimes cost more than the cheapest alternative. Pricing varies by practice, so it is worth asking directly rather than assuming.
Are holistic dentists still trained in regular dentistry?
Yes. A holistic practice is a licensed dental practice that has chosen a particular philosophy around materials and conservative treatment — it is not a separate qualification, and standard diagnosis and treatment still apply.
What causes bad breath and can a dentist help?
Persistent bad breath most often comes from bacteria on the tongue and around the gumline, and gum disease is a frequent underlying cause. Because it is usually oral in origin, a dental examination is a sensible first step.

I had an infection in a root canal that was over 35 years old. Dr. Malakpour expertly retreated the canal and addressed the infection with a gentle, careful touch. Everyone in the office is genuinely kind and exceptionally professional. If you need expert dental care, I highly recommend Dr. Malakpour and the entire team.

Dr. Ron and Briana are really great. They both are so gentle and kind. I'm a little afraid of the dentist and I almost fell asleep during my RCT. I would recommend him to everyone who needs a RCT. THANK YOU SO MUCH ROOT CANAL SPECIALIST. Michelle

Staff are awesome and the doc is patient and nice. Played some nice Spanish guitar during my root canal. I was surprisingly relaxed and in no pain at all. I was able to get in fast love how they share space with my dentist so I was able to walk right over and get my crown as well.

I reluctantly entered the office of Dr Malakpour at Root Canal Specialists not looking forward to the procedure. Lorenz and Brianna were wonderful, answered my questions and made me feel at ease. The procedure itself conducted by Dr Malakpour was exceptional and not at all what I excepted. As a matter of fact it was so smooth I actually dozed off. Thank you Dr Malakpour, Brianna and Lorenz for making my root canal such a satisfying experience. Floyd Nobler

I had my 1st root canal here. The Dr ,staff, and facility are excellent. I do not numb up easily so the staff worked tirelessly to make sure I was comfortable during and after the 2 needed root canals. Dr called the next day to check on my comfort. The procedure went quickly, with constant check-ins of my comfort. The recovery process was also quick painless as well. If you need any dental work I highly recommend this Dr and the partner practice. I will be returning for all of my dental needs from this point foreword.
