Our Services
Save Your Natural Tooth
Painlessly. Predictably.
Ivy Endodontics proudly serves the Central Jersey community with advanced, microscope-guided root canal therapy. Led by Dr. Franco DeMayo, a board-certified endodontist, our team combines 3D digital imaging with a gentle, patient-first approach so you leave with your natural tooth, and your smile, intact.
Root Canal Therapy
Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless. We gently remove infected pulp, thoroughly clean each canal, and seal the tooth to help you keep your natural smile for years to come.
Endodontic
Retreatment
Had a root canal that hasn't fully healed? Our advanced retreatment options can resolve lingering infection and give your tooth a second chance, often avoiding extraction altogether.
Apicoectomy (Periapical Microsurgery)
A precise microsurgical procedure that removes the root tip and any surrounding infected tissue. An effective solution when root canal therapy alone isn't enough to fully restore your oral health.
Dental Trauma Care
Chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth need fast, expert attention. Our Plainsboro office treats dental trauma with urgency, so you get relief and a lasting repair.
High-Definition
3D Scanning
Using the Carestream CS 9600, we capture ultra-high-resolution 3D scans that reveal hidden canals and fractures invisible on a traditional X-ray for a more accurate diagnosis and a more predictable outcome.
Emergency Endodontic Care
Severe tooth pain doesn't wait, and neither do we. Ivy Endodontics prioritizes dental emergencies in Plainsboro and surrounding Mercer, Middlesex, and Monmouth County towns, with same-day appointments to get you out of pain fast.

PATIENT STORIES

Real People — From Patients Across Central New Jersey
Dr Kang and staff treated me in early 2026. They provided excellent service and put me at ease while explaining each step of the endodontic procedure that I had done. Dr Kang thoroughly answered any questions I had. I was fortunate to have no pain, though I realize that may not be the case for all. I highly recommend this office.

I went to Jean Kang Endodontics for a root canal through my bridge, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I received. The office is clean and welcoming, and every staff member I interacted with was kind and attentive. Dr. Kang was outstanding fast, skilled, and very patient in explaining the procedure. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I felt comfortable the entire time. Truly a great experience during a stressful situation.
Dr. Kang was very calm and encouraging. She saw that I was anxious and put me at ease. Painless procedure, excellent dental assistant and office staff. I hope I won't need another root canal, but if so, I will come back to Dr. Kang!

There are so many wonderful things I could say about
Dr. DeMayo and his amazing staff. From the moment I called and spoke to Katerine I felt so at ease. She was so compassionate and made sure that I got an appointment the very next day. As soon as I entered the office, Dr. DeMayo and his staff took so much time to explain everything and did a thorough examination before starting treatment and most important, made sure that I was pain-free and relaxed.
Dr. DeMayo's assistant is amazing. She was so kind, knowledgeable and very compassionate in every way.
I would definitely recommend Dr. DeMayo and his whole staff. Honestly, if I can give 10 stars, I would. I cannot thank them all enough.
