Thank you for referring me to San Antonio Endodontics. My consultation appointment was last Monday. This is the day they set aside for consultations. I researched, on-line, this doctors’ group and was pleasantly surprised – not a single bad review!

All my life, I have heard that root canals are awful; so with no choice, I made the appointment and was greeted by Jimmy and Donna, Endondontics’ front desk clerk and greeter. So far, this was going acceptably well. I was soon ushered into the examining room and attended by staff who took several x-rays. They took several because they thought my blurred root was a fault of their machinery or that I moved during the picture taking. I told them your x-rays also showed a blurred root. This satisfied them.

I was assigned to Dr. Cloutier who confirmed my need for, in my words, the dreaded root canal. His resume is to my liking and he has an outgoing, wonderful personality. All of my qualms disappeared.

Next, I met two of his account administrators. Lovely women and they clearly explained my charges and set-up my appointment for two weeks out. They asked if I would accept an earlier appointment if one presented itself. I said, “No”. However, they telephoned me the next day and had an appointment opening the following day – I took it!

Two days ago, I had my root canal and it was such a positive experience that I must write this epistle to you. Thank you for referring me to San Antonio Endodontics. (Do you know, they do nine root canals each day? Amazing.)

Because Novocaine shots are the worst part of getting a filling, I took 200 mg of Ibuprofen before heading there. They would have given me this, but I called ahead to confirm taking this approach and was told to go ahead. Probably, they would have given me a 600 mg dose, but I know my body and 200 mg is what I wanted. My root canal began at 1:45. Upon entering the exam room, Allison clearly explained the procedure. Dr. Cloutier came into the room, and administered the Novocaine. Never in 80 years have I received Novocaine so easily. I barely felt the needle~ (read this with several exclamation symbols. Wonderful experience.) Then I was left in the room for five to ten minutes while the Novocaine took effect. I looked out their large windows and enjoyed the fifth floor scenery — beautiful, moisture laden clouds and trees changing colors.

When the Novocaine became effective, Allison and Dr. Coutier entered the room. I was given very nice dark glasses. A rubber-like mask with a dime-size hole was placed over my mouth through which Dr. Cloutier performs the root canal. He adjusted his microscope – a large contraption with a lens for each of his eyes (it appeared similar to looking through field glasses). The scope has a laser beam, a high intensity light focused through the dime sized hole in the patient’s mask, and a huge apparatus to hold the equipment in place with no wiggling. He began working.

While Dr. Cloutier worked, he infrequently took his eyes from the microscope. Mostly, he remained focused on my tooth through his microscope. He frequently changed tools – Allison anticipated his every need for each tool. Their’s was a coordinated effort and very impressive. It was like Allison read his mind. He put out his hand with a tool, she rapidly and smoothly took the tool and replaced it with the next needed tool without being told which tool was needed.

A little over an hour later, they were finished. I took some iPhone photos of my x-rays and thanked them for a wonderful experience. I am SUPER IMPRESSED!

Oh, yes. I almost forgot. Dr. Cloutier has country western music playing in the room. He hummed along with the music. He was entertaining and I enjoyed his concert.

I was given a prescription for 600 mg of Ibuprofen and an antibiotic. I have not needed the Ibuprofen – not at all. And, my occlusion is perfect although I must return to my general dentist for a crown. My mouth never felt any pain or soreness. This was a wonderful experience!

Sincerely yours,

James W. Carter III

P.S. Please feel free to share my letter with anyone who has any reservations about having a root canal.

Thank you Dr. Bayat for you compassion and thoroughness today during my root canal. No surgey is fun especially tooth surgery. You were gentle, kind and explained exactly why I needed this procedure so i knew it was not for nothing. You made my anxiety and uneasiness so much more bearable. Thank you for treating me with that kindness and compassion. To my nurse Elida you showed me today there are still people in the healthcare setting that care about their patients physical wellbeing but also there mental wellbeing. Thank you for gently touching my arm when i was getting the sedation. My anxiety was high and I was exhausted from the pain. Your gentle touch was so needed and so appreciated. Never ever change that about you. You both made my whole experience fantastic and I will always reccomend you all to my dearest friends and family. Thank you!!!

Dr. Cloutier has the hands of Angel . The lord has blessed this man. He is not only handsome, but has an angelic voice for singing, great sense of humor and is so calming with his overall angelic manner of practicing dentistry. His staff is just as incredible as him. I imagined it was going to be really painful, thank God I knew the Community Care for Veterans through the VA, knew where exactly where to send me. Dr. Cloutier and his staff practically roll out the red carpet for their patients. If anyone is looking for an Angel to perform their next root canal, I would highly recommend San Antonio Edontontist, with Dr Cloutier.

Outstanding Experience! I had a root canal procedure on August 19, and I am beyond impressed with the entire experience. Having had root canals before, I can honestly say this was the first time I experienced absolutely no pain—during the procedure or afterwards. Dr. Cloutier and his team were exceptional. They combined professionalism with a warm, welcoming approach that made me feel like a truly valued patient. The level of care, attention, and skill exceeded my expectations, and I would confidently recommend this office to friends, family, and even strangers. Thank you to Dr. Cloutier and staff for providing such outstanding service!

Somewhere toward the end of Apr 202, 2025, Dr Cloutier did my root canal. I was very surprised how painless it was. Nothing like the first one I had done. For some reason, my dental insurance didn't cover it, so I paid out of my own pocket. So I'm having a routine check up with my regular dentist and the office staff informs me that my insurance hasn't paid pass procedures since last summer. What is going on? So I paid San Antonio Endodontics a visit to see if they could provide me with the paperwork so I could submit a claim on my own. To make a long story short, my dental insurance wasn't paying anybody because they did not have my primary insurance info. As far as I know, I only have one dental insurance. Now that I have Medicare Advantage, there is another dental insurance under my plan. I never knew. I stepped into San Antonio Endodontics and the staff was fantastic. From the receptionist, who greeted me and was eager to help with my situation, to Jeannette Cardenas, who took the time to call my insurance and find out what's happening and then called my regular dentist staff office to explain what needed to be done for everyone to get paid. I have NEVER been to a medical office where the staff was so very helpful. I just wanted to express my appreciate to the wonderful staff at San Antonio Endodontics. Everyone I met there was super. Please keep up the great work. Dr Cloutier, if you are the BOSS, you have a great team. You need to buy them all lunch. (LOL)

I suffer from severe anxiety and needed a root canal. The hardest part of my whole experience was being told that I needed one. After that, it was one of the easiest experiences I have been through. Painless and fast. I cannot thank Dr. Bayat enough for his patience and care through this whole process.

Dr. Bayat and his assistant Jocelyn were amazing! 🤩 I was so nervous and my anxiety was kicking in but Dr. Bayat calmed me down by talking to me calmly me by reassuring me I was going to be okay. The music in the background calmed me too, he was listening to 80’s classics. Music. I am a Gen X so the music took me down memory lane. The front office staff is amazing, kind, courteous and excellent customer service! My overall experience was great! I would definitely recommend San Antonio Endodontics! God bless you all!

I was so nervous and in so much pain when my dentist hit a nerve during my root canal procedure. He told me that he couldn't complete it and that I needed to go see a Endodontist to finish the root canal, so I was referred to Dr. Saeed Bayat. At my consult, he explained everything that was going to happen and made me feel at ease about the procedure and that it wouldn't be a problem. I've never had a root canal done where I absolutely had no pain!!! I think that I may have even dosed off for a minute or two, that's how good he is! He checked on me constantly during the procedure and afterwards to make sure that I was doing okay. No pain from my root canal afterwards and going into the second day. I hope that I never again have to go to get a root canal or any other dental surgery needed by a Endodontist but if I do, there is only one doctor that I am going to see Dr. Saeed Bayat!!! Thank you and your team so much!

Dr. Cloutier was amazing. The procedure was quick and pretty painless. Just watching him and his assistant Allison was like watching a well oiled machine working in unison. I highly recommend Dr. Cloutier at the San Antonio Endodontics. I hope not to need anymore root canals, but so happy to know that Dr. Cloutier is there if needed once again.

I had an exceptional experience. From the initial consultation to the completion of my root canal, Dr. Coultier, his assistant Heather and their team demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and a genuine concern for my comfort and well-being. Dr Coultier was singing softly to songs on the radio as he worked and he has a great voice. Very soothing and relaxing environment with my “singing dentist.” LOL. The procedure was thoroughly explained to me, and I was kept informed throughout the process. Dr. Coultier was gentle, skilled, and made sure I was comfortable during the entire procedure. He also gives pain free numbing injections, especially the one in the roof of my mouth. The office staff was friendly, efficient, and made scheduling a breeze. I was impressed by the state-of-the-art equipment and technology used in the office. I highly recommend SA Endodontists to anyone seeking endodontic care. They truly deserve 5 stars!"

Allison and Dr. Cloutier were amazing. They knew exactly what they were doing. They worked like a well oiled machine. The root canal procedure went flawless. Root canals are their bread and butter, it's what they do here. Dr. Cloutier was very calm and collected and makes you feel at ease. He has soft music playing in the background and he hums along with the songs to help him stay focused and in the zone. I also enjoyed the music as it also help me focus on something else. It was a great experience. I will def be coming back for future procedures if and when needed. I will also recommend them to my family and friends.
