Endodontics – Preserving Your Natural Teeth with Expert Care

Endodontics

What Is Endodontics and When Is It Needed?

Endodontics is a dental specialty focused on the treatment of the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the root of a tooth. The most common endodontic procedure is a root canal, which is necessary when the pulp inside your tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or injury. This treatment is crucial for saving a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.

What Does Endodontic Treatment Involve at Paya Dental?

The endodontic (root canal) treatment process typically includes:

  • Diagnosis: Thorough examination and X-rays to assess the extent of infection or damage.
  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience.
  • Pulp Removal: The infected or inflamed pulp is carefully removed from the tooth.
  • Cleaning and Sealing: The inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected before being filled and sealed with a biocompatible material.
  • Restoration: In most cases, a crown is placed on the treated tooth to restore its function and appearance.
