We understand that root canals can seem intimidating, but our team of skilled dentists strives to take the anxiety out of this essential care. Endodontics treatments like root canal therapy are one of the most common procedures we perform to help alleviate pain and save damaged teeth. Our Tigard, OR office is fully equipped with the latest technology to offer efficient and effective endodontic treatment. Whether you’re dealing with a dental emergency or experiencing chronic tooth pain, we’re here to provide personalized care that meets your specific needs.
Endodontics is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the internal structures of teeth, with a primary emphasis on the preservation and care of dental pulp. Dental pulp is a vital part of the tooth, providing essential nourishment for its growth and stability. Through meticulous endodontic therapy, our skilled team can safeguard the integrity of this crucial component by effectively removing decay, bacteria, and trauma-related damage.
These advanced procedures not only help prevent the need for tooth extractions but also ensure that your teeth can continue to function normally. Neglecting the proper treatment of dental pulp can lead to rapid decay and further complications if left untreated. Thankfully, our dedicated professionals are here to offer exceptional endodontic care, ensuring the restoration of your teeth’s optimal health.
As part of our comprehensive endodontic care, we offer effective root canal therapy. When a dental crown isn’t enough to restore deep decay, root canal therapy is a pain-relieving and tooth-preserving solution. Infected dental pulp is removed and comfortably sealed for lasting protection. By choosing root canal therapy, you can not only find relief from discomfort but also preserve your natural tooth, ensuring the integrity of your smile.
At Washington Square Dental, we’re committed to helping our patients achieve not only a beautiful smile, but optimal dental health. Let us show you how our orthodontic services can benefit you beyond appearances.
A pulpectomy treatment is designed to address infected dental pulp in teeth where complete root canal therapy may not be required. During a pulpectomy, the infected pulp or soft tissue is carefully removed from the tooth, and the area is then filled with a protective material. Unlike full root canal treatment, a pulpectomy can often be completed in a shorter visit, as it does not involve the placement of a dental crown.
Pulpectomies are also commonly recommended for baby teeth in order to preserve their functionality and overall oral health. By opting for a pulpectomy, early tooth extraction can be avoided, and the integrity of the tooth can be maintained until it naturally falls out.
Our endodontics team specializes in treating the interior of your teeth, to relieve pain and improve overall oral health. We believe in a patient-centered approach, and strive to make every visit as comfortable as possible. From root canals to pulpectomies, our team is equipped to handle any endodontic needs you may have. Experience the precision of total tooth care at Washington Square Dental, and book your next appointment today.
Before commencing any cosmetic dental procedures, we will conduct a thorough evaluation to ensure that your teeth and gums are free of extensive decay or disease. Our goal is to enhance your natural beauty rather than conceal underlying issues.
