Endodontics

Another name for endodontics is root canal therapy. Sometimes the nerve and blood vessels inside a tooth may die and become infected. This can happen if a tooth has had decay, cracked, or been knocked. Often an infected tooth can be saved by carefully removing the infection from inside a tooth. This is endodontics/root canal therapy. It is necessary to correct any root canal issues before implants are placed, because an infected  adjacent tooth may jeopardize an adjacent implant.

Saving teeth is important!

Our philosophy is to save teeth wherever possible. Although we are a predominantly implant practice, this does not deter us from viewing each tooth carefully and, in discussion with you, trying to save it as possible. In many instances endodontics or root canal therapy can prolong the life of a tooth by many years.
