ENDODONTIST NEAR PAXTON, MA

Root Canal Treatment

Have you been struggling with abnormal dental symptoms recently, like pain when biting down or persistent sensitivity? Maybe you noticed a dark spot on your tooth or a pimple-like bump on your gums. Whatever the case may be, we recommend contacting our talented endodontists near Paxton to schedule an exam. Then, they can determine if root canal treatment is needed and, if it is, walk you through the process so you know there’s absolutely nothing to fear.

Endodontic Surgery

An example of endodontic surgery is an apicoectomy. This procedure is sometimes referred to as a “root-end resection,” and it involves us removing the inflamed or infected tissue as well as the end of the tooth root. Another example is intentional replantation, which is when we treat the tooth outside of your mouth. Since these procedures are more rare, it’s normal to have lots of questions. Don’t worry – our endodontists near Paxton are here to answer them all.

Endodontic Retreatment

Although root canal treatment has a very high success rate, sometimes something unexpected happens, like new decay develops. So, if you start to experience any abnormal symptoms in the weeks or months following your root canal procedure, get in touch with our team at Worcester Endodontics right away. That way, we can take X-rays, conduct a visual exam, and determine if endodontic retreatment is necessary.

Endodontics for Children

Remember, baby teeth serve an important purpose, even if they do eventually fall out. So, if one or more of your child’s teeth become severely decayed or infected, we will likely recommend root canal treatment. Rest assured, we will go the extra mile to make the treatment process as comfortable as possible for them – from numbing their mouth beforehand to providing you with aftercare instructions to help them heal at home. Plus, we offer sedation dentistry for anxious patients!

Traumatic Dental Injuries

Did someone accidentally elbow you in the face while playing sports? Did you fall while riding your bike? Did you notice a crack in your enamel after chewing on ice cubes? If so, the next step is simple: contact our team at Worcester Endodontics. That way, we can assess the damage, review your treatment options, and provide the necessary care. Our goal is to alleviate your pain and restore the look, health, and function of your smile in the short and long term.

Sedation Dentistry

For some patients, just hearing the words “root canal” triggers feelings of anxiousness. If that sounds all too familiar, you struggle with a sensitive gag reflex, or the sights and sounds of the dental office put you on-edge, then ask us about sedation dentistry! We’re proud to offer our patients several options, including nitrous oxide (which is often referred to as “laughing gas”).
