Endodontics

Endodontics – Preserving Your Natural Teeth

The goal of endodontic treatment is to preserve natural teeth and avoid extraction whenever possible. This treatment is recommended when the dental pulp, the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels, becomes damaged due to deep decay, inflammation or infection.

Root Canal Treatment

During endodontic treatment, damaged or infected tissue is removed, and the root canals are carefully cleaned, disinfected and filled with a specialised material. This helps eliminate the source of infection, relieve symptoms and create the conditions needed to preserve the tooth.

With timely treatment, it is often possible to maintain the function of the natural tooth and continue using it for everyday chewing. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual, depending on the condition of the tooth and the extent of the damage.
