Endodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on the study and treatment of dental pulp and surrounding tissues.
Root canal therapy, a common endodontic procedure, involves removing infected or damaged pulp from a tooth and sealing it to prevent further infection. Endodontists use advanced techniques, such as digital imaging and microscopes, for precise diagnosis and treatment. This specialty aims to save natural teeth and alleviate pain caused by dental infections.
Regular check-ups, prompt intervention, and advancements in technology contribute to the success and efficacy of endodontic procedures in preserving oral health and maintaining the integrity of natural teeth.
