I have been going to dr. chung for many years. i have had several root canals. everybody thinks when they hear root canal right away they think it will be a painful experience. let me tell you i have not had one bit of pain through out the entire process. right from the beginning dr. chung tells you he will not hurt you and totally makes you comfortable. even from the start with first injection of novacane you do not feel anything but a little pressure because they numb you with a topical solution before injection. in several instances i had to have an emergency visit and he has accommodated me each time. sitting in the chair you can watch tv or listen to your favorite music with hd tv screen above you to relax you. you will also notice that all equipment is sterilized.after every visit i have been contacted by his office to see how i was doing. the staff are very friendly. i would highly recommend that if you ever need any dental work to contact dr. chung's office in rock hill,ny.

I had a swollen gum and the dentist drilled through the tooth to drain it and he gave me antibiotics and a week later the infection was still there and he ruined my tooth I would advise to go to the city or somewhere in Middletown but not here

I hadn't been to a dentist in 13 years. In total, my dentist visits could have been counted on one hand. These people are my dental salvation. I just wanted to get my mouth right, and they're the ones I chose. I've had four wisdom teeth extracted and a root canal on a lower bicuspid (1 root). All these procedures were performed masterfully, professionally and with the utmost care for myself. You really get the feeling that Dr.s Longo and Chung are virtuosos considering the digital strength and endurance required, offset by the sensitivity required while working in someone's head less than 2 inches from their brain with a high speed dental drill. I went to work within 12 hours of all my procedures and only required an extra strength aspirin for the root canal. I also had a cleaning done there, and the hygienist is on staff. She doesn't hop around from office to office, a toothy opportunist. She even reviewed proper brushing technique, flossing etc. The whole team there are open to all my questions and are always quick to acknowledge and allay my fears. They have been more than generous allowing me to make weekly payments as I do not have insurance. Lastly, here's an example of their commitment... After one of my extractions, I developed an abcess in the tooth requiring a root canal. Knowing that I wouldn't be able to go forward with my root canal with an active abscess, I panicked and called on a weekend when the office was closed. In hindsight I know that those 2 days wouldn't have been anything drastic for me, but i was panicking. Within 5 minutes of leaving a message, Dr. Longo called me back, from out of town, and got me set straight with an antibiotic prescription he was able to call in for me. He could've let me hang for a bit. He could've called me back and said that it was nothing drastic. He could've even told me to setup an appointment to setup another appointment to absolutely make sure it was an abscess. Instead of these, he did the right thing by me. 'Nuff said. I hadn't been to a dentist in 13 years. In total, my dentist visits could have been counted on one hand. These people are my dental salvation.
