ENDODONTIC/ ROOT CANAL TREATMENT- PRESERVING YOUR NATURAL TOOTH

​

Endodontic treatment enables the preservation of severely compromised teeth that would otherwise require extraction. At Westfort Family Dental, our advanced endodontic protocols and contemporary techniques ensure comfortable, successful outcomes for complex endodontic treatment.

​

• Westfort Family Dental provides comprehensive endodontic therapy to treat pulpal pathology when the dental pulp becomes infected or necrotic. The pulp tissue, located within the pulp chamber and root canals of each tooth, contains vital neurovascular bundles essential for tooth development and maintenance. Bacterial invasion through carious lesions, trauma, or restorative procedures can compromise pulp vitality, leading to irreversible pulpitis or pulpal necrosis with potential periapical pathology.

• Following endodontic therapy, our dental team provides comprehensive consultation regarding post-treatment restorative options. We evaluate factors including remaining tooth structure, occlusal forces, and aesthetic requirements to recommend appropriate restorative solutions, whether composite restoration, or full-coverage crown placement to optimize treatment outcomes and long-term prognosis.
