Endodontic Services
Endodontics is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on treating issues related to the inside of the tooth, particularly the dental pulp and root tissues. This branch of dentistry is essential for addressing problems such as tooth infections, decay that has reached the pulp, and injuries to the tooth’s interior, all of which can cause significant pain and jeopardize the health of the tooth.
Addressing the Root of the Problem
Root Canal Treatment
Endodontic treatment, commonly known as root canal therapy, involves removing the infected or damaged pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and then filling and sealing them to prevent further infection. This procedure is performed by a dentist or an endodontist, a specialist in this area. By saving the natural tooth, endodontic treatment can maintain the structure and function of the tooth, which is crucial for overall dental health.
How This Can Help
Benefits
The benefits of endodontics are numerous. This treatment can alleviate severe tooth pain caused by infections or deep decay. Additionally, by preserving the natural tooth, endodontic treatment helps maintain the natural alignment of your teeth, preventing issues that can arise from missing teeth, such as shifting and bite problems. Endodontic procedures are highly successful and can extend the life of your natural teeth for many years, often a lifetime, with proper care.
