Our Services and Procedures
Patient Info
- Saving Teeth: Our practice's mission is to preserve your natural teeth. With expert care and personalized treatment plans, we strive to prevent unnecessary extractions and maintain your oral health for the long term.
- Non-Surgical Root Canal: When a tooth develops severe decay, a crack, or infection, treatment is required to prevent worsening discomfort or tooth loss. We utilize state-of-the-art techniques to effectively address root canal issues without invasive surgery, ensuring a comfortable and efficient treatment experience for our patients.
- Endodontic Retreatment: Occasionally, a tooth with a previous root canal does not heal properly or develops pain or infection. When this occurs, we can retreat or revise the previous root canal to help save the tooth, relieve any discomfort, and heal the infection.
- Endodontic Microsurgery: For cases where standard root canal therapy is not sufficient, we perform precision surgical procedures under a microscope. This advanced approach allows us to save even the most challenging teeth.
- Root Resorption is a complex condition in which the root structure of a tooth begins to deteriorate. It requires specialized care. We provide tailored treatments to halt the progression and preserve your tooth's integrity.
- Pediatric Endodontics: We offer gentle and effective endodontic care designed specifically for children. Our treatments promote healthy and lasting dental development while ensuring a stress-free experience for young patients.
- Internal Bleaching: After a tooth has experienced trauma or a previous root canal, sometimes the appearance can appear grey or yellow, and often causes an esthetic issue. We have the ability to lighten the appearance of the tooth to match your other teeth.
- Advanced Dental Technology: We use cutting-edge tools and innovative techniques to deliver accurate, efficient, and comfortable dental care, ensuring the best outcomes for our patients.
- Traumatic Dental Injuries: Accidents or injuries that damage teeth require immediate attention. Our team provides prompt and effective treatments to restore the function, appearance, and health of your teeth.
- Emergency Endodontics: Dental emergencies can be stressful and painful. That’s why we offer rapid, expert care to address urgent root canal or dental issues, providing relief and restoring your oral health when you need it most.
