Endodontics
Effective Root Canal Treatment to Preserve your teeth
Indications for Root Canal Treatment
We recommend root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, in cases where the dental pulp is infected or inflamed. These indications include severe tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, swollen gums, tooth discoloration, prolonged sensitivity, abscess formation, deep decay or trauma, and radiographic findings. By addressing these indications promptly, root canal therapy can effectively alleviate pain, save the tooth, and maintain optimal oral health.
Consultation with us is essential to determine the most appropriate treatment plan based on individual dental needs and symptoms.
Benefits of Root Canal Treatment
Recommending root canal therapy for patients experiencing dental pulp infection or inflammation due to its numerous benefits. Firstly, it provides immediate pain relief, saving the natural tooth, improved oral health by addressing infection, functional restoration for comfortable chewing and speaking.
Additionally, it offers aesthetic enhancement, long-term dental health. It is cost-effective compared to tooth extraction and replacement, efficient treatment completed in one or two appointments, and a comfortable procedure with modern dental technology.
In Sia-Tankiko Dental Clinic we offer root canal therapy. It is a comprehensive solution to preserve natural teeth, restore oral health, and provide lasting relief from dental issues.
