endodontics
Tooth Replacement and Rehabilitation. Prosthodontic care may involve more comprehensive restoration when multiple teeth have been lost or significantly damaged. Treatment planning considers the patient's remaining teeth, gums, bite, jaw structures, and overall oral condition.
Evaluation and planning for tooth restoration using appropriate crown options.
Root canal treatment is one of the most common endodontic procedures. During treatment, the diseased or infected pulp is removed, the internal space of the tooth is carefully cleaned and treated, and the tooth is sealed. The purpose is to eliminate infection or inflammation and help preserve the natural tooth when possible.
Infection inside a tooth can develop from deep decay, trauma, cracks, or other causes. Endodontic assessment helps determine whether the tooth's internal tissues are affected and whether treatment may help preserve the tooth.
Trauma to the teeth can damage the pulp even when the external appearance of the tooth does not immediately reveal the extent of the injury. Endodontic evaluation may be necessary following certain dental injuries.
Persistent or severe tooth pain may sometimes originate from inflammation or infection of the dental pulp. An endodontic examination can help identify whether the source of the problem is inside the tooth.
