Dr. Nicholas Pappas, DDS, MSD

Board-Certified Endodontist

Specialty care that feels calm and clear

Dr. Pappas practices with a simple belief: that specialty care should feel calm, clear, and never rushed. He pairs advanced microscope-guided technique with a warm, patient-first approach that puts even the most anxious patients at ease.

For Dr. Pappas, saving a natural tooth is about more than the procedure. It's about taking the time to explain each step, answer every question, and make sure patients leave feeling cared for. That philosophy shapes everything he does here.

Dr. Pappas received his Bachelor of Science from Pennsylvania State University. He then earned his DDS degree at SUNY Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, where he first discovered his passion for endodontics, and subsequently completed a General Practice Residency at Stony Brook University Hospital. Following this training, he was accepted to a Post-Graduate Program in Endodontics at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, where he defended his thesis in the field of biomaterials and received his Master of Science degree. He became board certified in 2023.

In His Words

“Every patient deserves to feel heard.”

“The best part of what I do is telling someone their natural tooth can be saved, and then making the experience so comfortable they wonder what they were ever worried about. That's the standard our whole team holds to.”
