Welcome to
Martin Endodontics
Thank you for your interest in Martin Endodontics. We look forward to being of service to you. Our office is a specialty dental practice limited to endodontic therapy – We aim to preserve the vitality of your natural dentition by preventing and treating dental infections. By focusing on this one specialty, we are the experts at making endodontic treatment comfortable and successful.
Endodontists are dental specialists with an additional two or more years of post-graduate specialized training beyond dental school. The average endodontist completes 25 root canal treatments a week, while general dentists do about two a week.
Our office is trusted, reliable, and owned and operated locally.

Endodontics Procedures
Root Canal Therapy
- With modern electric handpieces and cleaning solutions, root canal treatment is now quicker and minimally invasive, resulting in faster recovery and more predictable outcomes.
- Getting a root canal should be like getting a filling, just a little bit longer treatment time. You’ll have headphones, a bite cushion to rest your mouth on, and our undivided attention to YOU throughout your entire visit.
Endodontic Retreatment
- Hidden and chronic infections can go unnoticed for years in old root canals. Modern endodontic retreatment treats these local infections and preserves the vitality of the tissue and bone supporting your tooth.
Endodontic Surgery
- Occasionally a dental infection in the roots of your tooth can be treated directly through the gums, physically removing the infection at the source. This procedure is reserved for teeth that do not respond to traditional conservative endodontic treatment.
Cracked Teeth
- Cracks in teeth can often travel down into the gum-like tissue inside your tooth, causing inflammation and pain. Your dentist will help determine if you have a crack, and if endodontic treatment may be an option.
Traumatic Injuries
- Typically after an accident involving the teeth, an endodontist should be seen within 7 days to evaluate the vitality of the teeth involved. Regardless of if there is pain or visible damage to the tooth, the underlying structures need to be evaluated for damage.
Cone Beam CT
- This 3D imaging modality is the gold standard in endodontic offices today. It can detect silent infections that traditional 2D x-rays just cannot see. Everything under the soft tissue – the sinuses, the bone, and the roots of the tooth, can be seen to detect a problem before there is pain with exceptional clarity and minimal radiation.
Let us take the pain out of your endodontic experience.
Our Doctors
Dr. Clark Martin
Dr. Martin has had his practice on Bedford Drive for 30 years, and is still happily working with the same energy and compassion he’s always been known for. He earned his Bachelors of Science in Biology from Boston College in 1976 and his Doctor of Dental Medicine from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 1979. Dr. Martin practiced general dentistry in downtown Boston for two years, and then returned to Tufts to complete his specialty training in Endodontics in 1982. While earning his endodontic certification, Dr. Martin practiced in Back Bay Boston, where his two daughters would later live, next door to each other, while earning their own dental degrees. He moved to California to open his own private practice, and served as a clinical instructor at the UCLA School of Dentistry in the Graduate Endodontic Program.
Our Doctors
Dr. Alexa Martin
Dr. Martin earned her undergraduate degree from UCLA and her dental degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. She completed a Hospital Residency at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, and then practiced general dentistry locally before moving back to Boston once again to pursue her specialty training. During her two-year intensive training, she focused on refining her diagnostic and clinical skills using state of the art equipment and modern techniques, including CBCT imaging, the surgical microscope, as well as the newest clinical electronic hand devices, all of which make the course of endodontic treatment more seamless and comfortable for the patient.
