Prenard R. Mickens, DDS

Welcome to our office

Our goal is to achieve the highest quality of endodontic treatment and personal care for our patients.  We believe in providing a comfortable atmosphere during treatment and strive to make every visit to our office as pleasant as possible for all our patients. Our office looks forward to providing gentle endodontic care to the adults and children of our community.

 
Practice Philosophy

First and foremost, we believe that people should have their own healthy teeth for an entire lifetime.  My staff and I are committed to providing patients with respect and valuable care in both a warm and nurturing environment.  Our practice will go above and beyond to provide patients with education and understanding of endodontics to help assist them in making appropriate treatment decisions. 

We provide the highest quality of endodontic treatment with the use of advanced, state-of-the-art technology available in the field today:                  

  • The surgical operating microscope offers increased magnification and illumination to visualize precise endodontic treatment. 
  • We use digital radiography to achieve higher resolution, and reduce the exposure time of radiation to our patients. 
  • Our practice uses a "paperless" record keeping system through the use of The Digital Office endodontic practice software.  This allows our patients and referring doctors the ability to view and update information online at their convenience.  Online registration is a time saving advantage for our patients so feel free to contact our office for more details and instructions about this process.

 

 
 
Patient Testimonials

My visit with Dr. Mickens was GREAT! He performed a root canal and I experienced NO PAIN during or after the procedure. Dr. Mickens and his staff were awesome and I would recommend them to anyone needing any endodontic care.

I had been experiencing great pain because of a horrible tooth in my mouth. I was given an appointment from my friend and dentist Dr. Zachary Hairston. I came to Dr. Mickens' office and was greeted joy. The staff worked through their lunch to make certain that the pain I was in had been addressed. DR. MICKENS IS THE MAN!!! The root canal was PAINLESS and also done with great care. I was treated like the only patient that he had, and even the office staff assured me prior to the procedure, Dr. Mickens will take great care of me, and there would be no pain! She was right! I recommend Dr. Mickens to everyone. Great job, and you have a friend for life!

I first met Dr. mickens in 2011 when I found myself needing a root canal after first having the crown. It was my second root canal and considering the circumstances, I really needed to be sure the procedure was necessary. He tested the tooth thoroughly and when not 100% convinced it was necessary at that time, I had to convince him to do it! This was a first for me and I strongly recommend Dr. Mickens to anyone who desires the services of an endodontic that will only do a root canal if it's absolutely necessary.

Dr. Mickens and his staff are simply outstanding and deserve the highest rating there is. I work for a general dentist and have been referring to Dr. Mickens for months now. I am always greeted by his friendly staff and never left feeling that they are too busy to help our patients in need. As it turns out I needed emergency treatment this week and Dr. Mickens was there for me with no hestitation. The doctor and the assistant were very gentle and caring during the procedure. He is simply a delight to be around and seems to love what he does. The staff is just the same and really seem happy to be employed by him, which is always a wonderful thing. I am so thankful to everyone there and will be referring all my friends and family as well as patients who need a specialist. Thank you Dr. Mickens and staff!!!!

I must say I was one of those people that puts off dentist work because I was afraid of the needle. I would search and search for a dentist that used the nitrous but when I went to see Dr. Mickens last week I was of course nervous but they assured me that it would be ok and that they would explain everything that was going to be done prior to doing it. I had a retreat of a previous root canal and I did this with no nitrous at all and everything was great. Not only did I receive a call the next day from Dr. Mickens to check on me after I also received a call that two days later, a Saturday, to check on me as well. The office staff is great and the atmosphere is very calming and relaxed.

I am one who hates to have my teeth poked and prodded. I don't like the sound, the feel, and well... all of it! And to be honest, I don't hate it, I am just afraid of it! Dr. Mickens and his staff have always been kind, responsive, helpful, and manage to put my mind at ease when I come see them. My first appointment, I felt like I had been going there for years! Dr. Micken's doesn't run a factory like office. He takes time with you to make sure you are comfortable with the procedure(s) and checks on your comfort level once you are done. Thanks so much for making my experience less frightening!

I was recently referred to and had a root canal done by Dr. Mickens. I was pleasantly surprised by the professionaism of the entire operation. I was met with a smile and friendly greeting from the receptionist and then asked to check my patient information with the paperless registration system. Very simple,fast, and you know it is correctly entered. Dr. Mickens was very professional and told me everything he saw,what he was doing, and why. I actually found the procedure quite interesting. I recommend Dr. Mickens and his staff for any Endodonic Procedure you may have to have.

I was referred to Dr. Mickens because I was told by my dentist I needed 2 or possibly 3 route canals. After being examed by Dr. Mickens it was determined that none were needed at all. The problem was something my regular dentist needed to fix. I appreciate his honesty because he could have told me anything just to make that money but he did not - he was honest with me. Thanks for saving me over $2000 which I did not have to spare. I would love him to be my regular dentist because he's just that thorough. I would recommend him to anyone!! Thanks Dr. Mickens

First of all I am a CHICKEN when it comes to the dentist. Second, I was told that a root canal was the worst thing a person could have done to their teeth. I had my first root canal today 3-19-2013 and I realized real quick that I had wasted a lot of time worrying about this visit. Dr. Mickens and his staff are remarkable. They recognized the fear I had and knew exactly how to respond to this fear. They managed to calm me down. The fear was so bad that it wouldn't have taken a whole lot for me to walk out. Dr. Mickens walked me through the whole process and checked on how I was doing the entire time. NOT ONCE did I experience pain. I would highly recommend Dr. Mickens and his entire staff. They are all wonderful. I owe Dr. Mickens and his whole staff a big big THANK YOU!!!!

I was expecting the worse case scenario when I was informed by my dentist that I needed a Root Canal. However, I knew something had to be done, because I was experiencing pain daily. My dentist referred me to Dr. Mickens. I never thought a visit to a dental office could be so pleasant. I left Dr. Mickens' office feeling like I should have made the decision to address my dental problem a long time ago. Dr. Mickens did an outstanding job performing a painless Root Canal for me. Thank you, Dr. Mickens. You are the best!
