What Is Endodontic Care ?
This is a question that is frequently asked by those who have never had any type of endodontic care or treatment. It is a branch of dentistry that specializes in working with the dental pulp and other surrounding tissue. It includes clinical sciences associated with the biology of tooth pulp located deep within the human tooth. An endodontist typically diagnoses diseases and injuries of tooth pulp as well as other associated conditions. An endodontist offers a wide range of preventative strategies and effective treatments.
Pulp Capping And Standard Root Canal Treatment
Covering a wide range of diagnosis and treatments for various types of oral pain associated with the tooth pulp is the main focus of endodontic care. From pulpotomy to pulp capping and standard root canal treatment, there are many different procedures that are performed on a daily basis and that are intended to help patients enjoy a better quality of life. In most cases pathological tissue is surgically removed and in other instances root end resection is performed. In addition, various types of endodontic implants are placed as required.
Endodontic Care Specialists Perform A Wide Range Of Advanced Treatments
An endodontist is a professional with usually two or more years of advanced training in various aspects of endodontics. Receiving a certificate in endodontics from an ADA accredited advanced education program is standard in terms of requirements. Endodontic specialists perform a wide range of advanced treatments and endodontic care. An endodontist can be considered a board-certified specialist or a board eligible specialist as well as an educationally qualified specialist. Endodontic care has been around for some time and offers many advantages to dental patients who wish to preserve their natural teeth as opposed to having a tooth extracted.
