Any time you think something might be wrong with your oral health, you should treat the matter as serious. Our teeth are strong, and they can hold up well against the tough job of biting and chewing through different meals and snacks all day. Unfortunately, when a problem like dental damage or decay affects you, it becomes necessary to schedule restorative work. At this stage, the health of your tooth will continue to worsen until you require more advanced treatment!
By using our advanced imaging technology to effectively evaluate your smile, Dr. Endo can confirm that a root canal is needed, and assess what condition your tooth is really in. If root canal therapy is still the recommended procedure, we can move forward with this service. The removal of bacteria and infected tissues will stop the further spread of an infection, and it will put a stop to your tooth pain. After this work is done, you can return to your general dentist to receive a crown. If the state of your tooth makes a different approach necessary, we can explain this and let you know what your treatment options are.
As a practice that specializes in endodontic services, there are several actions we can take to restore a person’s unhealthy tooth that go beyond what a root canal can do. For example, we can arrange an apicoectomy, a service that removes an unhealthy root tip to stop further problems with your tooth. We can also perform retreatment if we need to do work in an area that has already been serviced. These services make it possible to save teeth that would otherwise have to be extracted to stop complications.
Our endodontic treatment office can bring you in and provide a root canal to deal with bacteria that accumulated in your tooth’s pulp due to a cavity or injury. To find out more about this and other services we provide, contact Omni Endodontics in El Paso, TX by calling 915.990.3636!
