At Endodontics of Buckhead, we have the same simple goal for every patient we treat: get them out of pain and make sure they leave our endodontic office with a strong, healthy, and confident smile. Dr. Mark Barr and Dr. Avni Maru are part of a very small group of dentists who’re able to provide both specialized endodontic care (root canals) and complete dental implant services to help our patients save damaged and decayed teeth and permanently replace those that have been lost.
Qualified Expertise
Dr. Mark Barr and Dr. Maru have over 30 years of combined experience as certified endodontists, which means they completed years of additional training after graduating from dental school in order to provide an array of specialized services designed to relieve the most persistent dental pain. To this day, they still take hours of continuing education every year in the field of endodontics and implant dentistry, ensuring our patients only receive the most up-to-date care possible.

GentleWave Technology
Dental technology is constantly changing and evolving, and one of the greatest breakthroughs in the past few years has been GentleWave technology. It has completely changed the way Dr. Barr and Dr. Maru perform root canals. Instead of having to use small files to slowly clean out the inside of a tooth, GentleWave actually creates a vacuum inside a tooth using fluid dynamics. The end result is that more infected tissue is removed in less time while the tooth itself is better preserved.

Accurate Diagnosis
Have you been dealing with an aching tooth for a while now? In order to get you out of pain, Dr. Barr and Dr. Maru first need to understand what is causing it, and to find out, they'll use some of the latest technologies available today. Intraoral cameras help them see your teeth close up and in high-resolution, digital X-rays will enable them to spot issues hidden from the naked eye, and surgical microscopes will ensure that nothing gets past them during treatment.

Minimally-Invasive Approach
Patient comfort is at the forefront of absolutely everything we do, and right below that, our goal is to preserve as much of a patient’s natural smile as possible. In order to accomplish both, Dr. Barr and Dr. Maru have developed their own minimally-invasive approach that enables them to deliver the best possible results with the least amount of dental work. Thanks to their gentle touch, they're able to give patients exactly what they need dental-wise while also keeping them comfortable the entire time.
Sedation Dentistry Available
It’s normal for patients to feel nervous about undergoing a root canal or getting dental implant surgery. Our kind and understanding team does everything it can to help patients feel at ease in our endodontic office, and for those who need a little more help to feel relaxed, we’re happy to offer multiple kinds of sedation. We can use sedation to effectively protect a patient from discomfort and calm their anxious thoughts at the same time, ensuring a pleasant experience from check-in to checkout.
