There are times when saving a tooth in urgent need of care calls for more involved work than general dental offices provide. To address an emergency properly without accepting a tooth extraction, you can meet with an endodontist to learn about more involved services capable of preserving your complete smile. These services can address problems within your pulp, and even issues that affect your roots. Doing so can make an extraction unnecessary, so you can proceed with care that does not end in the placement of a prosthetic. This means that you can ultimately enjoy more conservative care, and you have the comfort of knowing your full smile is still intact.
Through both root canal therapy and conservative oral surgery, our practice can address problems within the tooth structure that concern you. Root canals deal with infections and internal injuries in your pulp, the central chamber area where living tissues are housed. During a surgical procedure, such as an apicoectomy, we can tend to issues with your roots so that they no longer cause you discomfort and threaten your well-being.
Sometimes, the trouble with saving an injured tooth is that it will be difficult to keep a crown in place. Both Post And Core and Core Buildup procedures deal with this problem. These services rebuild the surface structure so that you can receive a crown from your general dentist that can be trusted to remain in position.
There are times when dental emergencies make it seem as if your tooth will have to be extracted. Fortunately, when you bring up your issues with an endodontist, you can find that advanced services are available that can save teeth in vulnerable states!
