OUR ENDODONTIC SERVICES
Root canal treatment is a treatment sequence for the infected pulp (nerve) of a tooth which is intended to result in the elimination of infection and the protection of the treated tooth from future reinfection or extraction. Root canal retreatment – Retreatment involves the removal or access through the crown and removing the previous root canal filling material. After canal disinfection procedures, the canal(s) are re-filled and the tooth sealed with a new permanent crown or filling. Endodontic surgery – Surgery provides a predictable method to remove diseased tissue surrounding infected root ends and allows root-end filling materials to be placed after root resection. The treatment encourages healing and tooth retention in cases of non-healing root canal treatments. Vital pulp therapy – is defined as a treatment that aims to preserve and maintain healthy pulp tissue that has been challenged by caries, trauma, or restorative procedures. This is particularly important in young adult teeth with incomplete apical root development, but can also be successful for many adult patients. Dental trauma refers to trauma (injury) to the teeth and/or periodontium (gums, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone), and nearby soft tissues such as the lips, tongue, etc. Early interceptive treatment directly after trauma is critical in saving teeth and avoiding unwanted complications. Walking/internal bleaching – The walking bleach technique is used to whiten teeth that have had previous root canal treatments. It involves bleaching the teeth internally and can be successful without needing crowns or veneers. Diagnosis of odontogenic pain – The diagnosis of odontogenic pain differentially locates the source of oral discomfort, that can be caused by teeth, muscles, neoplasms or neurological disorders.
