The most common endodontic procedure is root canal therapy, a treatment designed to remove infection from the tooth’s root and restore it to full functionality. While root canals are the standard approach, more complex cases may require additional endodontic procedures to ensure both the health of the tooth and the preservation of overall oral well-being.
At Providence Dental Practice, our experienced and highly trained team is equipped to handle advanced endodontic treatments that would typically require a referral to a specialist. These treatments include apicectomies (removal of infected tissue at the root tip), re-root canal therapy (addressing issues from previous root canal procedures), and retrograde root filling (sealing the root from the root tip rather than the crown). These advanced procedures demand specialized skills, and we’re proud to provide these services in-house, offering a comprehensive approach to your dental care. This ensures you can receive the care you need without needing to visit multiple locations, enhancing your comfort and confidence in the treatment process.
Your endodontic treatment begins with a detailed consultation, where we discuss your options and explain each step of your proposed treatment plan. If you’ve been dealing with symptoms such as heightened sensitivity, discomfort while chewing, or looseness in a tooth, these may be indications of a deeper issue that requires endodontic attention. In such cases, we encourage you to contact us promptly for an evaluation and potential treatment. At Providence Dental Practice, we’re committed to preserving your natural teeth and maintaining your overall oral health through effective and expert care.
