Endodontic treatment is necessary when the pulp, the soft tissue inside the root canal, becomes inflamed or infected. We offer relief by performing root canal treatment/therapy. This procedure includes removing the compromised or infected pulp and thoroughly cleaning the canal. Then we seal the prepared tooth. After the root canal is complete, a crown or bonded filling is placed into position to cover the tooth.
Sometimes, a tooth that has had root canal treatment may not heal properly, requiring an additional treatment. Using our laser-assisted approach, we clean out the infected material and disinfect the interior before sealing the tooth.
Traumatic dental injuries often occur in accidents or sports-related injuries. Chipped, broken, cracked, or dislodged teeth can result from a blow to the face. Root canal treatment can relieve pain and protect the tooth from further damage or decay.
Endodontic surgery can be used to locate small fractures or hidden canals that werent detected on x-rays or during previous treatment. An apicoectomy, or root end surgery, removes the very tip of the tooths root and adjacent tissues in an effort to save the problematic tooth.
