There are times when tooth decay requires more than just the placement of a dental filling or crown after decayed tissues are removed. In the event that your tooth becomes infected, root canal therapy will have to take place. As bacteria continue to move through your pulp and pass through your roots, even this procedure can offer insufficient support. We can provide a thorough review of your tooth with advanced imaging technology to determine what kind of care you require. After this, we can provide endodontic treatment to save your tooth, even if your care makes oral surgery necessary.
As involved as endodontic treatment can become, these services make it possible for us to treat you and restore your oral health without requiring the removal of a tooth. A root canal treatment will remove bacteria and infected tissues within your pulp, the tooth’s central chamber. If necessary, we can provide additional services, such as an apicoectomy, to tend to harder-to-reach problems. Through careful oral surgery, we can access areas that are difficult to reach so that we can tend to a problem at its source.
We rely on advanced imaging technology, including microscopes, to evaluate our patients. Detailed reviews lead to the discovery of problems that are harder to see, so we can progress confidently with your treatment. The right evaluation is an important step in your treatment, making the right imaging equipment valuable as part of your experience with care.
While a general dentist can take on many problems with dental decay, some severe cavities can call for treatment provided by an endodontist. At Omni Endodontics, we can evaluate you to determine just how serious your problem with your tooth is, and from there we can provide more advanced services that restore your oral health without making a tooth extraction necessary. To learn how we can preserve your full smile and still address a worrying tooth issue, please contact Omni Endodontics in El Paso, TX by calling 915.990.3636!
