About Us

When Dr. Carr first started practicing endodontics, he noticed a high failure rate in endodontic surgeries, especially in the long run. Determined to find a way to improve outcomes, he designed a line of entirely new surgical instruments for endodontists. It started as most things do; humbly. Dr. Carr experimented with materials, bend angles, and tip diameters to find what worked best. Then came the true test: he took his small stock of surgical tips to sell at a meeting. The line was soon out the door for his products, and he and his wife were overwhelmed. At home, the order forms and tips were taking over the kitchen, spilling out of drawers and cabinets. Dr. Carr realized the potential for his small company and got to work hiring a staff, perfecting his designs, and showcasing his products anywhere he could.
 
What started with one man's curiosity has become a successful business with customers in over 50 countries.

About Dr. Carr
Dr. Gary B. Carr, widely recognized as the “Father of Microscopic Endodontics,” began practicing endodontics in San Diego in 1982. He received his A.B. from Cornell University in 1969. Dr. Carr served in Vietnam in the U.S. Navy from 1970–72 as a Line Officer aboard the USS Coral Sea. He received his dental degree at SUNYAB (Buffalo, NY) in 1976 and his specialty endodontic training at the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1982. He is a diplomate of AAE.

In addition to introducing the microscope to dentistry, he also developed the ultrasonic root end preparation technique used by all endodontists today. In conjunction with this, he invented the ultrasonic tips, microscopic mirrors, microscopic dental instruments and specialized camera adapters for the microscope.

Dr. Carr is the author of over 40 articles on endodontics and has authored two chapters in Pathways of the Pulp, the foremost publication in endodontics. Dr. Carr maintains a private practice in San Diego, California. He resides with his wife and son in Rancho Santa Fe, California.
