There, he studied only endodontic treatment and learned advanced techniques so he can provide the very best care comfortably in the least amount of time. Dr Lea is a specialist. In his office, he performs only endodontic procedures, both routine and complex. He is also experienced at finding the cause of oral and facial pain that is difficult to diagnose. Of the many tools Dr. Lea has at his diposal, his patients' favorite is the Single Tooth Anesthesia (STA) that provides local anesthetic in minute amounts through a tubing - no more multiple injections!
