Saving a Tooth

Things You Should Know About Saving a Tooth

Dental patients have many important decisions to make when it comes to saving a natural tooth and choosing other alternatives. The choices made early on can have a big impact on dental health and lifestyle over the years to come. Here are some simple and important strategies for saving your natural teeth as a way to enjoy a better quality of life. Endodontic treatment is widely regarded as one of the best ways to preserve natural teeth for improved cosmetic appearance and better functionality.

Produces Better Results Than Bridges

From more effective chewing to achieving a more natural appearance and for improved biting force, natural teeth will in most cases perform better than artificial alternatives. Perhaps one of the best ways to save teeth is to consider root canal as compared to tooth extraction. Decades have shown that root canal treatment produces better results than bridges, dentures, implants or other similar types of dental work. This is especially true when it comes to accommodating emergency dental cases that occur unexpectedly.

Extensive Training In Root Canal Procedures

Patients should also understand that if a general dentistry care provider recommends tooth extraction, it is best to consult with an endodontist to determine whether or not root canal is a viable option. An endodontist is a dental care provider who specializes in saving teeth. With extensive training in root canal procedures, an endodontist can achieve remarkable results in terms of saving teeth that might otherwise be lost. Using cutting-edge techniques and procedures, an endodontist can treat a patient quickly, comfortably and effectively. Always consider the importance of consulting with an endodontist before making any major dental care decisions.
