I had a root canal done by Dr. Swaar yesterday. I am a person who needs drugs for a cavity to be filled. I had taken my valium, but was still very nervous and upset when it came time for the procedure. He was very kind and gentle. Today, I have no pain. I had no pain at all throughout any of the work he did. Being so worked up, he even went ahead and finished with a final filling so that I don't have to go back to my dentist and have it done. I would definitely recommend this Dr. to anyone needing a root canal. I rate 4 stars only due to some of the chit-chat taking place in the background during the procedure. Seemed a bit unprofessional to me. But the Dr. and his work seem to be 5 star.
