Dr. Timothy Gibson, DDS, MS

Root canals aren’t anyone’s idea of fun, but they’re sometimes unavoidable. Endodontists specialize in saving teeth that might otherwise need extraction, handling everything from routine pulp therapy to more complex procedures like apicoectomies or retreatment of prior work. When general dentists refer patients out for advanced care, it’s often to a specialist like this—someone who focuses solely on diagnosing tooth pain and treating the inner workings of teeth. The goal? Preserving natural teeth whenever possible, even when damage or infection runs deep.

Dr. Timothy Gibson’s practice operates at 617 Myers Rd Ste B in Summerville, a stretch of road that’s seen its share of growth as the area expands.
