Endodontics
We offer a specialized endodontic service, also known as root canal treatment, designed to save damaged teeth and relieve dental pain. With advanced technology and a team of expert dentists, we provide a safe and effective treatment that restores the health of your teeth, preserving your smile.
What is endodontics?
Endodontics is a dental procedure performed when the dental pulp, the soft tissue inside the tooth, is inflamed or infected. This condition is usually caused by deep cavities, fractures or dental trauma. The treatment consists of removing the damaged pulp, cleaning the root canals and sealing them, avoiding the extraction of the tooth.
When is endodontic treatment necessary?
Endodontic treatment is recommended in cases of:
Persistent dental pain: Sensation of intense pain when chewing or with temperature changes.
Prolonged sensitivity: especially when consuming hot or cold foods.
Abscesses or infections: Presence of swelling or pus around the root of the tooth.
Darkened or damaged teeth: Consequence of blows or trauma that affect the vitality of the tooth.
Benefits of endodontics
Relieves pain: The treatment eliminates the cause of the pain, providing immediate relief.
Preserves your natural tooth: Allows you to save your tooth, avoiding the need for extraction and the use of prostheses or implants.
Prevents infection: Prevents infection from spreading to other teeth or areas of the mouth.
Restores functionality: After endodontics, your restored tooth will function as a natural tooth, maintaining its chewing ability and esthetics.
What is the root canal procedure like?
Root canal treatment is performed in several stages:
Local anesthesia: Anesthesia is applied to make the procedure painless.
Access to the pulp: A small opening is made in the crown of the tooth to reach the root canals.
Cleaning and disinfection: The damaged pulp is removed and the canals of the tooth are cleaned to eliminate any bacteria or infected tissue.
Sealing the canals: Once cleaned, the canals are sealed with a biocompatible material.
Tooth restoration: A crown or filling may be placed to protect and strengthen the treated tooth.
What to expect after treatment?
After the procedure, it is normal to experience mild sensitivity, but this disappears within a few days. With proper care, a root canal treated tooth can last a lifetime.
