Dr. Erin Cho, DMD, FAGD

Founder & General Dentist – Re·gen Smile Studio

A proud Chicago native, Dr. Erin Cho is a dedicated general dentist with a passion for delivering high-quality, evidence-based care grounded in minimally invasive techniques and long-term health. She founded Re·gen Smile Studio to combine the science of modern dentistry with a personalized, patient-first experience – one that emphasizes both wellness and longevity. As a second-generation dentist, Dr. Erin is proud to practice alongside her father and brother in the suburbs. She was inspired by the warm, family- oriented approach he cultivated in his suburban practice and dreamed of bringing that same family dental practice style to the city.

Dr. Erin earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago through a competitive accelerated program, where she also completed her undergraduate studies. To broaden her training and gain advanced clinical experience with medically complex patients, she completed a General Practice Residency at Evanston Hospital, where she rotated through emergency trauma, anesthesia, pediatrics, and oral surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about root canal treatment

Is a root canal painful?

No! Modern root canal procedures are virtually painless. We use advanced local anesthesia and sedation options to ensure your complete comfort. Most patients report feeling no pain during the procedure and only mild discomfort during recovery, similar to getting a filling.

How long does a root canal take?

Most root canal treatments can be completed in one to two visits, each lasting 60-90 minutes. The exact duration depends on the complexity of the case and which tooth is being treated. We’ll provide you with a detailed timeline during your consultation.

What is the recovery time after a root canal?

Most patients return to their normal activities within 24-48 hours. You may experience mild sensitivity or discomfort for a few days, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

How much does a root canal cost?

The cost varies depending on the complexity of the case and which tooth is being treated. Most dental insurance plans cover 50-80% of the cost. We offer flexible payment plans starting at $89/month and will work with you to maximize your insurance benefits.

What happens if I don't get a root canal?

Without treatment, an infected tooth can lead to serious complications including severe pain, abscess formation, bone loss, and potential spread of infection to other parts of your body. Root canal therapy saves your natural tooth and prevents these complications.

Can I eat normally after a root canal?

You should avoid eating until the numbness wears off to prevent accidentally biting your cheek or tongue. After that, start with soft foods and gradually return to your normal diet. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it’s fully restored with a permanent crown.

How successful are root canal treatments?

Root canal treatments have a success rate of over 95% when performed by experienced specialists. With proper care and a permanent restoration, a treated tooth can last a lifetime. Our endodontists use advanced technology and techniques to maximize success rates.

Do you offer emergency root canal services?

Yes! We understand that dental emergencies can’t wait. We offer same-day emergency appointments for patients experiencing severe tooth pain or dental trauma. Call us immediately if you’re experiencing a dental emergency.
