Gerald Lim DDS, MS

Endodontics isn’t the kind of specialty most people think about until they need it—root canals, cracked teeth, or dental trauma often send patients searching for a specialist. Gerald Lim DDS, MS focuses on those precise areas, handling everything from routine root canal therapy to more complex procedures like retreatment or apicoectomies. While general dentists can perform some endodontic work, a dedicated practice often means more advanced tools and a narrower scope of care. This isn’t the place for cleanings or fillings; it’s where persistent tooth pain or infection gets addressed directly.

The office sits at 74120 El Paseo #2 in Palm Desert, a stretch of the Coachella Valley that blends medical offices with retail spots. El Paseo itself is one of the area’s busier corridors, so expect the usual desert traffic—especially in season. Parking tends to follow the rhythm of the surrounding businesses, but the suite number places it just off the main drag. For those mapping it out, the entrance is on the second floor; no need to circle the block looking for a ground-level door.

Patient feedback puts them at a 4.6 rating from 18 Google reviews, which for a specialty practice suggests consistent experiences. Questions about procedures or scheduling are best directed to (760) 568-5488—no online booking portal means a call is the straightforward next step. If you’re plotting the route, the map pin drops you right at the entrance, though double-checking the suite number saves a few steps.
