Endodontics
Endodontics refers to the treatment of the inside of the tooth. Indications include fractured teeth with pulp exposure, non-vital teeth, and teeth that have to be shortened due to malocclusion. Endodontic procedures are used as an alternative to extraction, allowing the tooth to be maintained in the mouth. Not every tooth is a good candidate for endodontic treatment, so we use diagnostic imaging to help us make that determination.
