First and foremost, we believe that people should have their own healthy teeth for an entire lifetime.

To support that belief, we subscribe to a program of preventive dental care. As your trusted NEPA endodontist, it is also our belief that the prevention of disease is far more enjoyable, less costly, and more comfortable for all concerned. So our goal is to help you achieve and maintain a healthy mouth as quickly and as economically as possible.

Microsurgical Endodontics of NEPA is a specialty practice dedicated to saving natural teeth. Dr. Joseph N. Legg, DMD, a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics, leads our Dunmore office, which focuses only on endodontic care: treating the soft tissue and roots inside your teeth. If you’re dealing with a severe toothache, a cracked tooth, or an infection that needs attention, you’re in the right place.

As a trusted endodontist in Northeastern Pennsylvania, Dr. Legg provides root canal therapy, root canal retreatment, apicoectomy and endodontic microsurgery, treatment for cracked teeth and dental trauma, and vital pulp therapy. Many of our patients are referred by their general dentist. Others come to us directly for fast relief from tooth pain.

Our practice brings university-level care to the region. We use a surgical microscope on every case, 3D cone beam CT imaging for precise diagnosis, and laser-assisted endodontic treatment that few practices in our area can offer. These tools help us find problems others might miss and treat them with greater accuracy and comfort.

Patients travel to see us from Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, the Poconos, and beyond because we take the time to listen, explain, and protect the smile you already have.
