Caring for the inside of your tooth
Specialized treatment that saves teeth affected by deep decay, infection or injury.
What endodontic treatment does
Endodontics is the area of dentistry that focuses on the soft pulp inside your tooth — the nerves and blood vessels that keep it alive. When that pulp becomes inflamed or infected, whether from deep decay, a crack, repeated dental work or trauma, it can cause significant pain and threaten the tooth.
Endodontic therapy — which includes root canal treatment — removes the damaged tissue, thoroughly disinfects the inner canals and seals them to prevent re-infection. The result is simple but powerful: your pain is gone, the infection is stopped, and your natural tooth is preserved rather than extracted. Keeping your own tooth is almost always the healthiest, most natural outcome.
