If you're in Wengen or Grindelwald and you want a root canal (you may be thinking that you'll never want a root canal, but trust me, my friend, on the day that you need a root canal you will also want one), this is the place to be. You could go to Interlaken, but that will take at least half a day, and let's face it, you'd rather be skiing. Dr. Herting is near the Grindelwald Grund station, so you can ski right down there, have your treatment, and then get the train back up to Kleine Scheidegg without loss of time. The clinic is spotlessly clean with all of the latest dentist gadgets, and everyone is friendly and professional - the service is first class. They also speak English, key if you are a tourist. After a terrible night's sleep, I found the whole experience positively restful and I probably would have fallen asleep if it wasn't that every time I started to drift off, my jaw would close a little and I'd be asked to open it again.
A couple of notes (correct at the time of writing): firstly, don't trust google maps to tell you where this place is if you look up Dr. Herting by name. Google the address. If you've walked more than 3 or 4 minutes from Grund, you've screwed up. Secondly, the clinic doesn't take cards. If your insurance isn't going to pay him directly, bring cash. Lots of cash. (N.B.: There is a cash machine at Grund.) In this life, you get what you pay for.
Update* My extremely expensive dentist back in London looked at the x-rays of Dr. Herting's work and pronounced that "the guy who did this was a real pro!"

I am very satisfied with the treatment! Although I respect dental treatments, I feel very comfortable there. Only recommended!

We had to put the wire that had popped out back in. Everything went well, but after 15 minutes he jumped out again. The doctor said you can eat again. Then we called again and then we said: We knew they would come back. We wanted to see if the wire held. I find that a disgrace.
