Understanding Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy at South Gate Dental Clinic is a vital procedure aimed at saving teeth that have been severely damaged or infected. Our dedicated team of endodontists combines advanced technology with a compassionate approach to ensure your root canal treatment is as effective, pain-free, and comfortable as possible.
A Lifesaver for Infected or Damaged Teeth
Root canal therapy is required when the pulp, the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue, becomes inflamed or infected. This can result from deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the tooth, cracks, chips, or other injuries. The procedure not only relieves pain but also prevents the spread of infection, saving the natural tooth.
Understanding Apicoectomy
Apicoectomy, or root-end surgery, is a specialized endodontic procedure offered at South Gate Dental Clinic. This surgery is typically recommended when a conventional root canal treatment cannot fully resolve an infection in the tooth's root or surrounding bone. Our skilled endodontic team employs precision and advanced surgical techniques to ensure the best outcomes for our patients.
A Focused Approach to Resolving Persistent Infections
An apicoectomy becomes necessary when infection or inflammation persists in the bony area around the end of your tooth after a root canal treatment. This procedure involves the surgical removal of the tooth's root tip (apex) and the surrounding infected tissue, followed by the placement of a small filling to seal the end of the root canal.
Understanding Fractured Teeth
At South Gate Dental Clinic, we understand the discomfort and concern that comes with a fractured tooth. Our comprehensive approach to fractured tooth management combines state-of-the-art technology with personalized care, ensuring the best possible outcomes for your oral health and aesthetics.
Addressing a Common Yet Varied Dental Issue
Teeth can fracture for various reasons, such as trauma, grinding, or biting on hard objects. The severity of a fracture can range from minor chips to deep cracks extending into the root. Early intervention is key to prevent further damage and potential tooth loss.
Understanding Immature Apices
At South Gate Dental Clinic, we specialize in the management of immature apices, a condition often encountered in developing teeth, particularly in children and adolescents. Our endodontic team is adept at handling the unique challenges presented by teeth whose roots have not fully formed, ensuring the best possible outcomes for long-term dental health.
A Critical Phase in Dental Development
Immature apices occur when the root of a developing tooth hasn't fully formed, often due to trauma or infection. This condition can make traditional endodontic treatments challenging, as the open apex (tip of the root) can complicate proper sealing of the root canal.
We provide comprehensive dental care in a warm and welcoming environment.
