Also known as endodontic therapy, a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage to the pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth). The process involves removing the infected or damaged pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, and then filling and sealing it to prevent further infection. This treatment saves the natural tooth and alleviates pain, restoring its function.
Performed to address issues in a tooth that has previously undergone root canal therapy but has not healed properly or has developed new problems. It involves reopening the tooth, removing the existing filling material, cleaning and disinfecting the canals again, and then refilling and sealing the tooth to resolve the infection or issues and promote proper healing.
Comfort and health amenities at our office include digital x-rays, daylight controlled lighting for a relaxed atmosphere, sterilized water system, air filters against bacteria, dust and smells and other amenities to make your visit pleasant and comfortable. Read more about our high-tech dentistry.
