Woodinville's Root Canal Specialist, 25 Minutes From Wine Country
Tasting rooms, Hollywood Hill estates, and the warehouse district — Woodinville has everything except an endodontist. When a tooth flares up before a weekend of pours, Dr. Nima Dejbod's Issaquah practice is 25 minutes away with same-day slots and a microscope on every case.

In pain right now?
A tooth that flares up before a wedding weekend or a big pour is exactly what our same-day emergency slots exist for. Call early — from the warehouse district or Hollywood Hill, you can be numb before the first toast.
Decay, a crack, or an aging restoration lets bacteria into the soft tissue at your tooth's core. The resulting infection has nowhere to expand — and that trapped pressure is the pain keeping you up at night.
02
The treatment
Working through a surgical microscope, Dr. Dejbod removes the infected tissue, disinfects every canal to its tip, and seals the interior so the infection has no way back.
03
The outcome
Your natural tooth stays exactly where it belongs. Pain ends, function returns, and your Woodinville-area dentist protects the result with a crown.
Specialist vs. Generalist
Why Wine Country Dentists Refer South
Woodinville's general dentists are excellent at everyday care — and candid about when a tooth needs a specialist. The honest comparison:
Evergreen Endodontics
Typical General Office
Training
Two to three years of residency beyond dental school, spent entirely on diagnosing and treating the inside of teeth
A general dentistry education; root canals share space with dozens of other skills
Volume
10,000+ root canals completed — several per day, five days a week
A few per month, between the rest of the appointment book
Magnification
Surgical microscope at up to 14x on every case — hidden canals and fine cracks get found
Loupes in most offices; complex anatomy can go undetected
Sedation
Nitrous, oral, and IV sedation — three options for every patient
Varies; IV sedation is uncommon in general practice
Your Visit
From Toothache to Fixed: The Visit
Three steps, about sixty minutes — and you're back in the valley with the pain behind you.
1
Examine & Image
A focused exam and digital X-rays first — a 3D CBCT scan when the anatomy is complex. We look at the images together.
2
Explain & Approve
The diagnosis, your options, and the exact cost, in plain language. Nothing proceeds without your approval.
3
Relieve & Restore
Complete numbing first, then precise microscope work with sedation if you'd like it. Most Woodinville patients are back home in the valley within the hour.
Comfort Menu
Relax — We Have Options
If anxiety has been your excuse for postponing, consider the excuse retired. Three comfort levels:
Option
How It Feels
Best For
Nitrous Oxide
Gentle relaxation that fades within minutes — drive yourself back to wine country afterward
Mild anxiety, shorter visits
Oral Sedation
A prescribed tablet before your appointment; deeply calm, with little recall of the procedure
Moderate anxiety, molar cases
IV Sedation
The deepest conscious sedation available, adjusted moment to moment by Dr. Dejbod
Severe anxiety, surgical cases

My dentist thought the tooth might not be savable. Dr. Dejbod found the hidden canal under the microscope and saved it.

Seen the same day for a cracked tooth. I walked in barely able to think straight from the pain and left wondering why I waited so long.

Unhurried, unscripted, one patient at a time
The Doctor Wine Country Refers To
“Woodinville knows the value of doing one thing well — it's a town built on craft. Endodontics is my craft: ten thousand teeth, one microscope, and a pace that never rushes the patient in the chair.”
Dr. Nima Dejbod, DMD · Washington State native · UW graduate · Seattle Met Top Dentist 2026 · Vice President, WA State Association of Endodontists
In-network rates are contracted by insurers — the same at every in-network office, specialist or not. For most insured patients, the out-of-pocket cost lands at $160–$655 when benefits remain.
Wine-industry teams, warehouse-district businesses, and tech commuters carry a wide mix of PPO plans, and we're in-network with the major carriers. We verify benefits before your visit, so pricing is never a post-appointment surprise.
Getting Here
Woodinville to Pain-Free in About 25 Minutes
Two routes, both easy: I-405 south to I-90 east for the fast version, or the scenic SR-202 valley run past the farms when you'd rather take the pretty way. From the warehouse district, Hollywood Hill, or Cottage Lake, plan on about 25 minutes to 600 NW Gilman Blvd — with free parking at the door when you arrive.
From the Hollywood Hill estates to the warehouse district, Cottage Lake to Kingsgate, the whole valley is about 25 minutes from specialist care. Find your community below.
No — wine country has tasting rooms aplenty but no endodontic specialty practice. Woodinville-area dentists refer their root canal cases to Dr. Dejbod in Issaquah, about 25 minutes away via I-405 south or the SR-202 valley route.
Can you handle a tooth that flares up before a big event?
That is exactly what our same-day emergency slots are for. Call first thing — wedding weekends and event seasons are familiar territory, and getting you numb and comfortable quickly is the entire point of the emergency schedule.
How do I get there from Hollywood Hill or the warehouse district?
From the warehouse district, I-405 south to I-90 east is about 25 minutes. From Hollywood Hill or Cottage Lake, the scenic SR-202 route through the valley lands you at the same exit 17. Parking is free at the building.
What will a root canal cost with my insurance?
At contracted in-network rates, expect roughly $800 for an anterior tooth, $1,000 for a premolar, or $1,300 for a molar. Insured patients with benefits left typically pay $160–$655 out of pocket — verified and approved before treatment begins.
Do you treat retreatments and complicated cases?
Yes — retreatments, calcified canals, and cracked teeth are core endodontic work. The combination of a 3D CBCT scan and 14x microscope magnification is precisely what these cases call for.
I'm nervous about the procedure. What are my options?
Nitrous, oral sedation, or IV sedation — matched to your anxiety level. Many of our most nervous Woodinville patients choose IV and describe the appointment as the easiest nap of their year.
