When dental pain starts to affect you, there can be little doubt in your mind that you should discuss the problem with a dentist. Unfortunately, a problem with your oral health can become so serious that a general practice may have to refer you to someone else, or can only offer to extract the tooth. By meeting with an endodontist to learn about your treatment options, you can find a way to stop pain that does not call for the removal of your tooth! At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we can use advanced imaging technology to search for the source of your trouble, which we can address through our services. We can even help when saving a tooth calls for oral surgery, or when you might need work done on a tooth that has been treated in the past! (more…)
When Dental Trouble Calls For Retreatment
The treatment you undergo for an injured or infected tooth should permanently restore your oral health. If you continue to feel that something is wrong, or if you develop problems after past care, you can bring your concerns to an endodontist to discuss retreatment. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office is able to tend to problems after you have already undergone dental work. We can evaluate you to find the issue affecting you, then do the necessary work to stop it. After this is done, you can return to your dentist to have the tooth restored. Thanks to our advanced imaging technology, we can closely evaluate your tooth to find why you are experiencing difficulties. (more…)
Preparing A Damaged Tooth To Hold A Crown
Why do dental problems sometimes lead to the extraction and replacement of teeth? General dental care can protect your full smile by addressing potentially serious issues with dental damage and decay, including problems that call for root canal therapy. However, there are issues that leave teeth in such poor condition that it can seem as though extraction is the only option. Before you give up on your complete smile, you can talk to your El Paso, TX endodontist to learn about more involved procedures that can help you. If your dentist is concerned about a dental crown’s stability, we can perform a Post And Core or Core Buildup to add to your tooth structure and offer more support. (more…)
Restoring Your Tooth With An Apicoectomy
Root canal therapy can remove bacteria and damaged tissues inside your tooth. By performing this procedure, we can stop an infection before its continued spread creates more difficulties for your oral and general health. Unfortunately, while a root canal makes involved treatment possible, problems can exist beyond the reach of this procedure. A general dentist may have no treatment recommendation for you at this point beyond extracting your tooth. However, your El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office can recommend oral surgery to target and resolve these less accessible issues! One service we can offer is an apicoectomy, a procedure where your tooth root is carefully revealed so that we can remove its tip and replace it with a filling to keep your smile safe. (more…)
Scheduling A Root Canal For A Dental Injury
When people think about oral health problems that call for treatment, they often think about cavities. While a good routine can protect you from this problem, decay is a common threat. However, it is not the only source of oral health trouble that can lead to problems within your tooth structure that call for endodontic treatment. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office can help you deal with a serious injury that causes internal tooth damage. We use advanced imaging technology to evaluate problems and determine treatment options. With the right service, we can restore a vulnerable tooth’s health by dealing with internal issues, and we can also help rebuild tooth structure to support a crown! (more…)
Endodontic Treatment For A Severe Cavity
At a routine dental exam, your dentist can identify a cavity that has recently formed. That early detection results in treatment to stop decay from spreading further and creating more trouble for your tooth, and for your general well-being. Unfortunately, when decay is not addressed in a timely manner, complications that lead to pain and sensitivity, as well as potential infection risks, can affect you. For an advanced cavity, it may be necessary to seek the services of an endodontist. At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we provide different services for more severe issues with poor dental health. These services include oral surgery to save a tooth that would otherwise have to be extracted due to its poor condition. (more…)
Why Retreatment Is Sometimes Necessary
Will you need to arrange follow-up treatments for a tooth after you undergo root canal therapy? Typically, this one procedure will be able to permanently address your oral health trouble, meaning you should not have lingering issues after it is performed. With that said, when an infection is not completely addressed, or when a new problem develops at a later date, it can become necessary to perform retreatment. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office can help you in this situation. By doing work to carefully reveal your tooth’s inner structure, deal with an infection or damaged area, and re-seal your pulp, we can make sure your tooth’s health is truly restored so that you no longer have to worry about your discomfort.

The services we provide address troubling tooth infections as well as injuries that cause internal problems. In addition to restoring your oral health through root canal therapy, we can recommend more advanced services, including minor oral surgery, to save an painful, unhealthy tooth you may be at risk of losing.

Your Endodontist Can Provide Root Canals
If a cavity keeps growing, it will eventually work through your enamel and dentin, which means bacteria will gain access to your pulp. The pulp contains living nerves, making this infection a potentially painful one! Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office is prepared to help you if you find that you need root canal therapy. We can thoroughly evaluate your tooth to confirm that the procedure is needed before removing bacteria and damaged tissues from within. After this work is done, you can see your dentist to have the tooth permanently restored. One benefit to seeing an endodontist is that we offer additional services that can restore a tooth when even a root canal is not capable of saving it! (more…)
