Endodontics

Endodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases related to the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the roots of a tooth. When a tooth’s pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or damaged, an endodontist performs procedures like root canal therapy to remove the infected tissue and save the tooth. This treatment helps relieve pain, restore function, and prevent further complications while preserving your natural tooth, ultimately contributing to your overall oral health.
