Why Choose an Endodontist
Understanding Endodontic Treatment
Endodontic treatment focuses on saving natural teeth by treating infection or damage inside the tooth.
One of the most common procedures performed by endodontists is Root Canal Treatment, which removes infected tissue from inside the tooth and helps eliminate pain.
In some cases, additional treatment such as Endodontic Retreatment may be recommended if a previously treated tooth develops a new infection.
These procedures are designed to relieve discomfort and restore normal tooth function.
Reason 1: Experience
On average, endodontists perform nearly 25 root canal treatments a week, while general dentists perform less than two.
Reason 2: Efficiency
Because they limit their practice solely to endodontic treatment, endodontists are efficient and precise. This equates to positive experiences and faster healing.
Reason 3: Availability
Most endodontists offer tremendous flexibility in accommodating emergency cases, so delays in treatment are kept to a minimum and patients can be relieved of dental pain quickly.
Reason 4: Advanced Technology
Many endodontists use state-of-the-art technology such as operating microscopes, digital imaging, ultrasonic instrumentation and fiber optics, to treat their patients quickly and comfortably.
Today, getting root canal treatment is often no more uncomfortable than having a filling.
