Elite Endodontics - Lisa M Poweski, DDS, MS & Ben Kushnir, DDS, MS

Root canal therapy often carries more dread than a Monday morning, but endodontists specialize in making the process as precise—and painless—as possible. Elite Endodontics handles these procedures alongside other complex dental needs, from cracked teeth to traumatic injuries, all under the care of two board-certified specialists. With a near-perfect 4.9 rating drawn from 96 reviews, the practice suggests that patients leave with far less anxiety than they arrived with. That kind of consistency in a field where nerves run high isn’t accidental.

The practice operates out of a professional suite in Westerville, sharing the building’s quiet efficiency with other medical offices. This isn’t a general dentistry stop; the focus here narrows to diagnosing tooth pain, performing microsurgeries, and treating infections that lurk beneath the gumline. When a filling or crown won’t cut it, this is where dentists refer patients who need deeper intervention. No one wants to need an endodontist, but when the moment arrives, specialization matters more than pleasantries.

Finding the office is straightforward: it sits at 450 Alkyre Run Dr #290, Westerville, OH 43082, tucked into a cluster of medical practices just off Polaris Parkway. The area leans more clinical than cozy, with easy access to major roads but none of the bustle of downtown. Questions about procedures or insurance are best directed to the front desk, where the phone—(614) 891-7550—connects to staff who field these inquiries daily. No one’s handing out lollipops after a root canal, but the logistics, at least, stay simple.

Westerville’s grown beyond its small-town roots, yet pockets like this still feel purpose-built for efficiency. The surrounding strip malls and office parks don’t scream charm, but they deliver convenience, especially for patients squeezing appointments between work and errands. For those mapping the route, directions pull up easily—no scenic detours required. The goal, after all, is to get in, resolve the issue, and move on. Ideally, with one less toothache.
