Should I See A General Dentist Or Endodontist?

For general oral health concerns, a trip to see your dentist can be in order. With that said, it may not be clear who you should see if you experience a new problem, or if something that is wrong persists in affecting you after treatment. In these situations, it can be a good idea to see someone who provides specialized concern. Rather than visit your general dentist, you can visit our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office to undergo treatment for an advanced oral health concern. Our practice provides advanced care that can save a tooth that is at risk for being lost!

Your Oral Health Trouble May Call For More Specialized Care

A routine cavity treatment can be provided at your general dentist’s office. However, a problem with tooth decay that leads to a painful infection can call for endodontic services. Our office provides care when you need to do something about difficult to access problems. In addition to providing root canal therapy, we can offer more services, including oral therapy, to resolve trouble with your well-being. With our advanced imaging technology, we are able to carefully study problem teeth and find the source of their difficulties.

How Endodontic Treatments Save Vulnerable Teeth

Endodontic services tend to trouble within the tooth structure that may be out of reach at a standard practice. In addition to performing root canal therapy to address problems within the pulp, we can go further to reach the source of your discomfort. For example, we can provide an apicoectomy, a procedure where a root end is carefully removed and replaced with a filling, to remove a threat to your well-being. By providing this service, we can save a tooth that could have been removed to restore your oral health.

Preparing A Tooth To Hold A Restoration

Sometimes, the reason you need to see your endodontist concerns the restoration of a tooth, not its treatment. In a situation where there is just not enough of the structure left to hold a dental crown, we can provide a Post And Core or Core Buildup to make sure you can receive the support that you require. After this work is done, you can return to your usual dentist’s office to receive your restoration.

Your El Paso, TX Endodontist Can Save Your Tooth!

While a general dental office can help with many different oral health issues, there are times when patients should see specialists for support. Endodontic services tend to problems within the tooth structure. Without this kind of advanced care, you could lose a vulnerable tooth! Your El Paso, TX endodontist is prepared to meet with you to discuss your treatment options. If you would like to know more, please contact Omni Endodontics in El Paso, TX by calling 915.990.3636!
