Her Advanced Case Was Handled With Care

What I had done here was a root repair. I had a root canal several years ago, and for some reason it became infected and so my lower jaw had enlarged. I had this great big lump and it was growing in my mouth. And so that's when Dr. Benneman said that you need to see a real specialist and it's Dr. Reeh that I would recommend.

So I came here and told him my fears about what was going on in my mouth because I could see it growing over the weekend. And he just said, "Here, just sit back and we'll take a look at it and we'll go from there but because I have so many years in my practice, we're going to fix you up and you're going to be okay."

Because I had never been here before, one is always a bit apprehensive, but because Dr. Benneman spoke so highly of him, that right there is a great start to it all. But then when I sat in the chair and he talked with me about what was going to be done and the procedure that he was going to do, he totally explained to me what was going to be done. There were no surprises. I don't like surprises.

Dr. Reeh Got Him Out Of Pain

It was a very sudden pain. It's not like it was a gradual pain that kind of was over a couple months of time or years. It was like, all of a sudden, I woke up and there was this really, really sharp pain. So my number one goal was to, obviously, get rid of the pain.

Basically having Dr. Reeh and River Valley Endodontics basically being able to get me in right away, being able to basically, in one day, take care of the procedure, get it done and have my pain gone. Without any pain doing the procedure was very, very important so it was all about the timeliness. Really, the pain was excruciating, so I wanted to really get rid of that and I did, so it was great.

He Had A Comfortable Experience

I was having sensitivity in my right upper front tooth and like a dull pain. I had that for, I'd say a couple of weeks. And then I noticed that it really wasn't getting any better. So then I called my dentist, made an appointment and she looked at it and then referred me to here to Dr. Reeh's office for him to look at it. I got in that very same day, which was great. I got here, checked in, they were very courteous, offered me if I wanted some water or something like that, I got in within minutes of getting here, after filling out my forms, got back into the chair, they took some x-rays, Dr. Reeh came in and taked a look at it. He did some testing on the two teeth around and the tooth itself, he said, it looks like a really healthy tooth and stuff like that.

So then he explained the options I had. One, he said, I could just leave it, which then at some point he would abscess and I'd have bigger problems and have to have the tooth removed. He could extract the tooth, but he made a good point of why extract a perfectly good tooth? And then you'd have a space and you have something else to worry about. He said, or weekend do the walking bleach, which is the root canal. And at that point, I said, "well, I'm going to go with option number three, but I want your opinion." And he said, "I would have told you, option three." I said, "That's what I thought," because I felt very comfortable in his assessment and where he was going. And then to my surprise, he was like, "Okay, we're going to get you ready and do it right now."

I was expecting to have to come back. To be honest, the whole root canal process went very well. I mean, he explained kind of what he was doing and things like that. And I'd heard horror stories about root canals. And I experienced nothing like that. I'm guessing for my first one, I was like, "No, this is really pretty good." And a week later, the office called me to make sure everything was okay and how I felt about it at that point. I said, "Hey, I'm really happy with it. So I'm going to just get one more permanent filling done." And that was it.

And they said if I had any problems to give them a call and again, I mean, I was very comfortable, very happy. It was a good experience. I mean, if you had to do a root canal, it was a good experience. And I would recommend coming here because it was really a non event was it was the next day I was back to normal. Nothing, no pain medicine, no nothing. So it was a good pleasant experience for a root canal.

He Refers His Root Canal Patients to Dr. Reeh

23 years ago, I had met Dr. Reeh and I was looking for an endodontist to take care of our patients in our restorative practice in Woodbury and I'd worked with several endodontists years prior to that. And one of the biggest obstacles that I had bumped into is when patients were in pain and needed endodontic care, we would call to help schedule them in an endodontic office and the typical response would be is, "We can see our patient in two to three weeks." And when you're in pain, that's an awful thing to have to tell somebody that they got to wait two to three weeks to get out of pain. And at that time I had met Dr. Reeh and Dr. Reeh had promised, me 23 years ago, which is amazing that he says, "Marc, if you call our office before noon of that day, I will do everything I can to see your patient, to get them out of pain that day."

And he made me that promise 23 years ago and I have to honestly say, he's been able to follow through on that every time we've called. It's been amazing and that's, to me, one of the most important parts of endodontic care or for an endodontic specialist is to help get people out of pain in a timely manner. And so one of the reasons why I referred to Dr. Reeh is the fact he is an endodontic specialist. And the reason why I, as a general practitioner do not do endodontics is because I've really learned it is a true specialty. You need very specific equipment to perform the job at a top level and doing it every day you become so proficient at it as a good endodontist like Dr. Reeh, that it really allows you to get more of a consistent A-plus end result.

So with Dr. Reeh with the patients returning from his practice with really top A-plus type endodontic results, I can with confidence, ask people to restore the tooth with a crown, or a bridge or larger restorations knowing I can count on that tooth lasting many, many years.

Professional and Compassionate Quality of Care

I started shadowing in 2018, with Dr. Reeh. I came in here just wanting to learn more about his specialty. I spent like a whole day with him, went through a bunch of different patients and he showed me all sorts of different stuff. I was just amazed. It was a whole different side of dentistry for me. Then after that day, I was like, "Okay, I'm going to look more into this. I think I could see myself doing this." Then I made that decision and now I'm applying for dental school. Once I get in, I plan on going through the four years and then specializing, maybe after I do some general dentistry.

He explains his procedures very well to his patients. I noticed, instead of just using dental terminology that patients probably aren't going to understand, he really thoroughly explains what he's going to do, makes them feel comfortable, puts them at ease. If there's any questions they have, he just does a really good job of explaining.

Going to the dentist can be intimidating for a lot of people. I know I used to feel that way even a little bit at times, especially younger, not really knowing much about the dental field. I think when a dentist creates a personal relationship with you and is willing to really talk about what they're going to do and how they're going to do it, it makes those scary things less scary.

A patient can be very comfortable here. The staff is so welcoming and everybody that works here, including Dr. Reeh, everyone's just so welcoming. When Dr. Reeh is doing his procedures, he just all throughout the procedures he's just making sure you're comfortable, feeling okay, and knowing what's going on.

She Always Feels Comfortable

I have been here several times, and for several different teeth, and for different reasons. I've had a root canal, several root canals. I've had an apicoectomy, and a sinus lift with a bone graft. Those are some really big things, and I always know that even though they're extensive procedures, that I'm in very good hands and I just don't have any fears coming in here. I always know that I'm going to be in better hands after being here.

Dr. Reeh is a really caring and very knowledgeable dentist to come and see. He always explains things in a very simple manner, in a way that you can understand. And he always listens. He's always listening to what my concerns are, what my fears are, and he has a way of just calming those fears and I always feel like I'm in very good hands when I come to see him.

I don't really have any fear about coming to the dentist, but I have had some extensive procedures, and I know that all I have to do is... Once I make the decision of what I'm going to have done with my teeth, I just lay there and I'd let him do the work that he needs to do. I know that I'm in very good hands and I just let him do his art. And he's very good at what he does.
