\n\t\tEndodontic FAQ’s\n\t<\/h1>\n

\n\t\tFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS\n\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\tWHAT IS ENDODONTICS?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t

Endodontics is a branch of dentistry recognized by the American Dental Association involving treatment of the pulp (root canal) and surrounding tissues of the tooth. When you look at your tooth in the mirror, what you see is the crown. The rest of the tooth, the portion hidden beneath the gum line, is called the root. Though the outer portion of the root is a hard tissue called dentin, the inside channel or \u201croot canal\u201d contains a pulp of soft tissue, blood vessels and nerves. Bacteria that are introduced into the pulp as a result of tooth decay, periodontal disease, tooth fracture or other problems, can severely damage the pulp. When that happens, an endodontic specialist removes the diseased pulp to save the tooth and prevent further infection and inflammation. After successful endodontic treatment, the tooth continues to perform normally.<\/p>\n\t\t\tI\u2019M WORRIED ABOUT X-RAYS. SHOULD I BE?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t

No. While x-rays will be necessary during your endodontic treatment, we use an advanced non-film computerized system, called digital radiography, that produces radiation levels up to 90 percent lower than those of already low dose conventional dental x-ray machinery. These digital images can be optimized, archived, printed and sent to referring doctors\u00a0via e-mail.<\/p>\n\t\t\tWHAT ABOUT INFECTION?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t

Again, there\u2019s no need for concern. We adhere to the most rigorous standards of infection control advocated by OSHA, the Centers for Disease Control and the American Dental Association. We utilize autoclave sterilization and barrier techniques to eliminate any risk of infection.<\/p>\n\t\t\tWHAT HAPPENS AFTER TREATMENT?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t

When your\u00a0root canal therapy has been completed, a record of your treatment will be sent to your referring dentist. You should contact your referring dentists office for a follow-up restoration within a few weeks of completion at our office. Your restorative dentist will decide on what type of restoration is necessary to protect your tooth. It is rare for endodontic patients to experience complications after routine endodontic treatment or microsurgery. If a problem does occur, however, we are available at all times to respond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
