Looking for an endodontist in Sweet Home, Oregon? Below you’ll find listings for the top endodontists in Sweet Home.
Endodontists are dentists that specialize in treating the soft tissue (also known as the “dental pulp”) in the tooth. This area contains both blood vessels and nerves and can cause severe pain if it becomes infected.
One of the most common treatments these specialized dentists perform is a root canal. While there are other types of dentists who may perform that procedure, endodontists are often called the root canal specialists. This is because of the additional specialized training they get as well as the advanced technology they may use in their offices.
However, root canal therapy is not the only treatment they provide their patients. General dentists will often refer their more complicated patients to an endodontist. Among the other treatments they can perform are apicoectomies, apexification procedures and endodontic re-treatment. Endodontists can also treat damage to the pulp due to a bad injury to the mouth. They may also consult on cases to help decide whether a tooth is worth saving or if it’s better to extract the tooth.
We suggest contacting a few endodontic offices in your area to find out about costs, financing options and payment plans. It also can be helpful to have a consultation with a few local providers to find out what their recommendations are for treating you. And to find an office you are comfortable with.
