By saving your teeth, you are preserving a healthy mouth, as well as a beautiful smile!
Our Board Certified Endodontist is specialized in root canal treatments – a safe way to save teeth. At the onset of a painful toothache, the cause may be an abscess. This condition occurs when the pulp or core of the tooth is diseased and cannot repair itself. If the abscess is left untreated, pain and swelling can result and the infection can harm your jawbones and require removal of the tooth involved. Before endodontics became a specialty, teeth with diseased or injured pulps were routinely removed.
We perform all types of root canal work. New technology has made root canals faster and much easier on the patient. With our sleep dentistry, we will take great care to make you comfortable during your treatment.
The warning signs include:
> painful toothache
> pain and swelling in gum area around tooth
> sensitivity to hot or cold liquids
> face or neck areas near infected tooth are tender and sore
Treatment methods depend upon the tooth and bone condition of the patient. If needed, porcelain crowns, as well as white composite fillings, make sure you have not only a healthy mouth, but a beautiful one too.
And, remember all of our services can be accomplished while you relax and sleep. |
