Save your teeth & restore your mouth
Endodontics is the area of dentistry focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the dental pulp. Root Canal Treatment is designed to save diseased or injured teeth.
Root Canal Treatment involves the total removal of vital tissues (pulp) inside the affected tooth. It is necessary when the nerve of a tooth (or pulp) becomes diseased or infected. Root Canal Treatment may be indicated when a tooth is suffering from:
- Deep decay that has exposed and contaminated the pulp
- Extreme sensitivity that is not resolved by other conservative treatment
- Irreversible Pulpitis (inflammation of the pulp) and / or internal resorption
- Non-vitality, which can be caused by various reasons such as trauma etc.
Previously if a tooth became infected or diseased it would have simply been removed. Today however, every possible step is taken to save all teeth and keep you with your natural teeth for life.
