Endodontics (root canal treatment)
Endodontics treats the inside of the tooth: the nerve and the root canal. When the nerve is inflamed or infected — often due to a deep cavity — a root canal treatment can save your own tooth and take away the pain. This way, you keep your natural tooth instead of losing it.
What can we help you with?
- Root canal treatment for an inflamed or dead nerve.
- Persistent toothache or pain from heat, cold or pressure.
- An abscess or inflammation at the root tip.
- Re-treatment of a previous (unsuccessful) root canal treatment.
Our expertise & focus areas
With modern equipment and magnification, the treatment is carried out precisely and as comfortably as possible. The goal is always to preserve the tooth: saving your own tooth is almost always better than extracting it. The endodontist works together with the restorative dentist, who carefully rebuilds the tooth after treatment with a filling or crown.
