R. Rubin Gutarts DDS, MS, Inc.

Root canals aren’t the kind of appointment anyone looks forward to—but when the need arises, a specialist can make all the difference. R. Rubin Gutarts DDS, MS, Inc. handles the kind of precise, tooth-saving procedures that general dentists often refer out: complex root canals, retreatment of failed cases, and diagnoses when the source of dental pain isn’t immediately clear. The practice also addresses cracked teeth and internal tooth resorption, problems that require both advanced training and a steady hand. While no one associates endodontics with leisure, the right provider turns a potentially stressful experience into a manageable one.

The office sits at 5574 Pearl Rd, Parma, OH 44129, a stretch of the city where medical and dental practices cluster among retail strips and residential side streets. Parma’s reputation as a working-class suburb with deep roots in Cleveland’s south side means convenience is key; this location puts specialty care within easy reach of neighborhoods where family dentists might not offer the same depth of endodontic services. Parking in the area tends to follow the rhythm of the surrounding businesses—busier midday, quieter in the early morning or late afternoon.

Booking an appointment here starts with a call to (440) 842-4111, where staff coordinate referrals, insurance details, and the logistics of urgent cases. Endodontists often work with patients mid-crisis—a cracked molar after biting into something hard, or lingering pain from an old filling—and the phone line serves as the first step in triaging those situations. Unlike general dentistry, where checkups can be scheduled months in advance, many who end up here are reacting to sudden, sharp reminders that teeth, despite their enamel armor, are far from indestructible.

First-time visitors can scope out the route via directions here—the building’s signage is visible from Pearl Road, but the entrance sits back slightly from the main drag. It’s the kind of place you hope to never need but are glad exists when the alternative is losing a tooth entirely.
