We Can Help You Restore A Broken Tooth

Is there a way to treat your broken tooth without having it extracted? What should you do if your general dentist is not able to provide services to save it? Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office can discuss more involved services that can save teeth that are at risk for being lost. One concern about a broken tooth is that there will not be a way to keep a dental crown in place to give it lasting protection. Fortunately, there is something that we can do about this. Through a Post And Core or Core Buildup procedure, we can provide more stability so that a custom crown can be put in place and reliably support your smile and oral health.

Will Your Broken Tooth Be Able To Hold A Restoration?

There are different concerns that need to be addressed when a tooth is physically injured. Broken enamel can lead to an infection, but it can also leave you without the structural support to hold a restoration at the end of a procedure. Without the right care to address this problem, your only treatment option can be to have it extracted and replaced with a custom prosthetic. However, if you do undergo the right treatment to support a dental crown, you can avoid these services and maintain your full smile!

Arranging A Post And Core Or Core Buildup

Through Post And Core and Core Buildup procedures, we have the ability to keep a restoration in place when you have lost a sizeable portion of your enamel. The Post And Core treatment uses a small post that is inserted directly into the tooth to add stability, while a Core Buildup is capable of helping without the presence of a post. An evaluation of your tooth will inform our decision to move forward with one or the other. Thanks to our advanced digital imaging technology, we have the ability to perform detailed reviews that tell us more about the state of your tooth and oral health.

What Else Can An Endodontist Do To Save A Tooth?

We offer different treatments that address serious concerns about a tooth’s internal health. In addition to providing root canal therapy, we can recommend oral surgery to do work on areas that are difficult to access. Oral surgery options can tend to areas that even a root canal is not able to reach.
