Endodontics

Saving and Protecting Your Natural Teeth

Endodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating issues related to the dental pulp and roots of the teeth. When a tooth becomes infected or severely damaged, endodontic treatments like root canal therapy can relieve pain and prevent extraction. At Village Walk Family Dental, we use advanced techniques to remove infection, restore tooth structure, and protect your natural smile. By preserving your original teeth, endodontics helps maintain proper chewing function and overall oral health. If you’re experiencing tooth pain or sensitivity, our skilled team is here to provide effective, comfortable solutions to keep your smile healthy for years to come.

  Frequently Asked Questions

What is endodontic treatment?

Endodontic treatment focuses on treating the inside of the tooth, specifically the dental pulp. Procedures like root canals and apicoectomies help save teeth that would otherwise need extraction.

You may need a root canal if you experience severe tooth pain, swelling, or sensitivity to hot and cold. These symptoms often indicate an infection or inflammation inside the tooth.
During a root canal, our dentist removes the infected pulp, cleans and disinfects the root canals, and seals the tooth to prevent further infection. This treatment relieves pain and helps preserve your natural tooth.
An apicoectomy is a minor surgical procedure that removes the tip of a tooth’s root to eliminate persistent infection. It’s usually recommended when a previous root canal hasn’t fully resolved the issue.

Practicing good oral hygiene, scheduling regular dental checkups, and addressing tooth pain early can help prevent infection and reduce the need for root canal or apicoectomy procedures.
