What Does an Endodostist Do?

Endodontists treat problems involving the inside of the tooth, an area known as the “tooth pulp.

The pulp has blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. It can get inflamed or infected because of deep tooth decay, traumatic injury to a tooth, and repeated dental work on a tooth.

The most common procedure endodontists perform is a root canal, a procedure in which they remove the tooth’s nerve and tooth pulp that has become damaged or infected. If left alone, the pulp will become inflamed and painful, and ultimately, the tooth will die. 

Retaining a tooth with endodontic treatment is in most cases far better than extraction and replacing the missing tooth with a prosthetic device. Before the treatment, your tooth will be examined and the entire treatment protocol is explained to you and you are given the opportunity to ask any questions you might hav

If a less favorable prognosis is anticipated, or if difficulty arises during treatment, it will be discussed with you. If healing does not take place, further procedures such as re-treatment or peri-apical surgery may be employed to save the tooth. Despite our best efforts, approximately 5% of endodontically treated teeth may fail and require extraction.

We at Dr. Grace Ordonez Clinic perform the procedure to immediately relieve the toothache caused by pulp inflammation or infection. Our highly skilled doctors make the procedure easy, accurate, comfortable (reported by patients) and some in single sitting (depending on the case) by means of high-tech machineries like:

  • 3D x-ray machine
  • Apex locator
  • ROOT-ZX mini (Endo Motor)
  • FDA approved medication
