At Danica Dental House, we specialize in advanced endodontic procedures to save your natural teeth and relieve discomfort. Our team provides gentle, precise care using the latest technology, ensuring a comfortable experience and long-term oral health.
Endodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating issues inside the tooth, specifically the dental pulp and root tissues. The most common endodontic procedure is a root canal, which removes infected or damaged pulp to prevent tooth loss and restore function.
You may need endodontic treatment if you experience: • Persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures • Swelling or tenderness in the gums around a specific tooth • Darkening or discoloration of a tooth • A pimple-like bump (abscess) on the gums If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule an evaluation with our experienced team to determine if endodontic care is necessary.
At Scissortail Endodontic Specialist, we offer high-quality, patient-centered endodontic care with: State-of-the-Art Technology – Our digital imaging and advanced instruments provide precise treatment and longterm outcomes. Comfort-Focused Approach – We offer various options for sedation and pain management. Experienced Dental Professionals – Our team is skilled in performing efficient and effective root canal therapy. Personalized Treatment Plans – We tailor treatments to meet your unique needs and concerns.
A typical root canal treatment begins with a thorough diagnosis using digital imaging to assess the affected tooth and determine the extent of the damage. To ensure a pain-free experience, local anesthesia is administered before the procedure. The infected or damaged pulp is then carefully removed, and the root canals are cleaned and shaped to prepare for sealing. Once cleaned, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection. Finally, a temporary filling is placed, and in most cases, a permanent crown is recommended to protect and restore the tooth’s full function.
Preserves Your Natural Tooth – Avoids extraction and maintains your natural smile. Relieves Pain & Sensitivity – Eliminates discomfort caused by infection or inflammation. Prevents Further Infection – Stops bacteria from spreading to other teeth and gums. Restores Normal Function – Allows you to chew and speak comfortably again. Long-Lasting Results – With proper care, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.
Proper post-operative care after your endodontic treatment is essential for a successful recovery and long-term oral health. To protect your treated tooth, avoid chewing on it until a permanent crown is placed. Manage any discomfort with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers as directed. Maintain excellent oral hygiene by gently brushing and flossing to prevent infection and promote healing. Be sure to attend all follow-up visits so our team can monitor your progress and ensure proper restoration. If you experience severe pain, swelling, or signs of infection, contact our office immediately for further evaluation and care.
