Understanding Endodontics: What You Need to Know

Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the interior health of your teeth. This specialty often involves procedures such as root canal therapy, which is essential for saving teeth that are badly decayed or infected. Dr. [dr_last] explains that during a root canal procedure, the infected pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed to prevent further damage.

Benefits of Choosing Endodontics Services

Opting for endodontic treatment offers several advantages:

• Pain Relief: Eliminates pain caused by infection or inflammation.
• Tooth Preservation: Helps save natural teeth from extraction.
• Aesthetic Maintenance: Maintains your natural smile without altering adjacent teeth.
• Long-Term Health: Prevents future dental issues by addressing problems at their source.

The Endodontic Process Explained

The process begins with a consultation where Dr. [dr_last] will evaluate your condition using advanced diagnostic tools. If a root canal is necessary, expect it to be completed in one or two visits:

1. Numbing the area to ensure comfort.

2. Accessing the tooth's interior to remove infected pulp.

3. Cleansing and shaping the root canals.

4. Filling and sealing the space to protect against reinfection.

5. Crowning the tooth for additional strength if needed.
