The goal of restorative dental treatment is to preserve your oral health and provide care for a tooth. Unfortunately, patients sometimes find that in order to have their overall health managed, their dentist may need to extract their unhealthy tooth. This means going through the extraction process itself, and it also means having a permanent prosthetic put in place to save their smile. What you should know is that endodontic services are often able to save teeth that are at risk of being lost. Based on an evaluation using our advanced dental imaging technology, we can determine what should take place in order to save your tooth and make the placement of a crown by your regular dentist possible.
It is sometimes difficult to completely address problems within the tooth structure in order to stop a worsening issue with your health. Sometimes, our practice can offer the right support through root canal therapy, or through retreatment to care for a tooth that has been through this service previously. However, at times when the roots of a tooth need to be cared for, even this service can lack access to an area that requires support. Fortunately, oral surgery can enable us to safely tend to issues in the roots; procedures like apicoectomy are able to resolve significant issues without resorting to the permanent loss of a tooth!
It may be difficult to restore a tooth simply because too much of its structure has been damaged. In a situation like this, there is still something that endodontic treatment can offer you. A Post And Core or Core Buildup treatment can resolve this problem by adding material that can help you support a restoration, which means your smile remains attractive and complete.
A successful restorative procedure from your endodontist can ensure that your dentist has no issues placing a custom crown to protect your tooth. For more information on how we can help you, contact Omni Endodontics in El Paso, TX by calling 915.990.3636!
