About This Provider
Dr. Christopher Allen is a specialist in endodontics, which focuses on root canal therapy and saving teeth that might otherwise be lost. With 18 years of experience and advanced training from the University of Detroit Mercy, Dr. Allen brings both expertise and a personal touch to his practice in Traverse City. He believes in treating each patient as an individual with unhurried, focused, and gentle care, and he's known for his attention to detail—a quality he's had since perfecting ice cream cones at his family's root beer drive-in as a teenager. Dr. Allen uses advanced 3D imaging technology to help plan the best treatment for you, and he's active in his community as a guest lecturer and speaker at dental meetings. He is currently accepting new patients.
