About St. Johns Endodontics

St. Johns Endodontics provides dental care on Baymeadows Road in the Baymeadows area of Jacksonville, Florida. 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 Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.

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. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list.

What services does St. Johns Endodontics offer?
Listed services at St. Johns Endodontics include Root Canal Treatment. The full list is shown on this page.
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.
Is a root canal as painful as people say?
The reputation is largely outdated. The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic and is usually no more uncomfortable than having a filling. The severe pain people associate with root canals is generally the infection beforehand, which the treatment relieves.
How can I look after my teeth between appointments?
Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and cleaning between the teeth daily covers most of it. Limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount consumed.

I overcame the stigma of root canal through the excellent care of Dr McClure. Every step was explained before and during the procedure. Dr McClure has an ability to explain the procedure at the understanding level for an adult and for the anxiety level of a child. I had no pain except for the numbing needle. I can’t comprehend the skill that allows this finely detailed work up inside a tooth but that skill was apparent throughout the procedure. The assisting Nurse was also excellent. Dr McClure called to check on me the evening of the procedure and left his cell number if I had any issues. I can’t think of a reason not to have this done if you need it and I recommend you call St John’s Endodontics and ask for Dr McClure.

I was referred to Dr McClure for a consult! They got me in right away! The office is very friendly. Dr McClure was professional explaining the results of the x ray and giving me a great assessment! He was easy to talk with and helpful in guiding me to the next step of my tooth repair.

Dr. McClure recently performed a root canal for me, and the experience was outstanding. He was calm, confident, and highly skilled throughout the procedure. There were several times when I genuinely could not tell he was actively working on my tooth because everything was so smooth and painless. His staff was equally impressive—courteous, organized, and reassuring, helping to create a comfortable experience from the moment I arrived. I also appreciated that Dr. McClure personally followed up after the procedure to check on my recovery. That level of attention and patient care is increasingly rare and did not go unnoticed. Thanks to Dr. McClure and his team, I can no longer count a root canal among my personal horror stories. I highly recommend him and his practice.

I recently needed an emergency root canal and was referred to Dr. Alexander Mc Clure. I can not say enough nice things about the staff and the doctor. They were professional and kind. The front desk provided me with a realistic estimate from lowest to highest amount to expect so I would not be surprised day of service. I have dental phobia and Dr. McClures approach to care was very reassuring he let me know what to expect every step in the procedure. To take things to the next level the Doctor called me on a Saturday to see how I was feeling which totally sealed the deal that I will recommend him every chance I can.

I had an excellent experience with the endodontist - Dr. McClure- and the entire office. The staff were very friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. Everything was very clean and organized, and they were very punctual with my appointment time. The instructions before and after the procedure were very clear and easy to follow. The doctor did an outstanding job. I truly didn’t feel any pain at all, which made the whole experience much better than I expected. I also really appreciated how he took the time to explain the procedure in detail and answered all my questions with patience. I highly recommend this office to anyone needing endodontic treatment. I’m very grateful for the care I received.
