The Life Saving Benefits of Endodontics

Endodontics focuses on treating the inside of your tooth, specifically the pulp and nerve tissues that can become infected or damaged. This specialized field of dentistry offers tremendous benefits for patients facing tooth loss. Rather than extracting a damaged tooth, endodontic treatment allows you to keep your natural tooth while eliminating pain and infection. Root canal therapy, the most common endodontic procedure, has a success rate of over 95% and can last a lifetime with proper care. By choosing endodontics, you avoid the need for costly tooth replacement options like dental implants or bridges, making it both a cost-effective and conservative treatment choice.

Advanced Endodontic Treatment Process

Our endodontic procedures begin with a thorough examination and digital imaging to assess the extent of damage or infection. During treatment, we carefully remove the infected or inflamed pulp tissue from inside the tooth, then clean and disinfect the root canals to eliminate bacteria.  The empty space is filled with a biocompatible material and the tooth is sealed to prevent future infection. Most endodontic treatments can be completed in one to two comfortable appointments using local anesthesia. After healing, we typically recommend a crown to restore the tooth’s full strength and function, ensuring your treated tooth serves you well for years to come.
