Our Services
We understand that anticipating a root canal procedure can be stressful, which is why we've focused our efforts on creating an environment that is attentive and caring. Our experienced and compassionate team is committed to providing you with the highest level of endodontic care. Some of the services we offer include root canals, apicoectomy, cracked teeth treatment, endodontic retreatment, and traumatic injuries treatment.
Apicoectomy
In some cases, a tooth that has had a root canal, which did not sufficiently heal or has become re-infected, is not a candidate for endodontic retreatment. For these teeth, a minor surgical procedure that treats the infection from the root-end of the tooth, known as an apicoectomy, may be indicated. An apicoectomy is an excellent next step procedure to preserve a previously treated tooth, eliminate a dental infection, and restore the health of the surrounding tissues.
Cracked Teeth Treatment
Treatment of a cracked tooth depends on the extent of the crack and the degree of pulpal involvement. Symptomatic cases that receive root canal treatment and crowns before the crack propagates too far have a favorable prognosis.
Our Doctors
Our doctors have received advanced specialty training in the complex diagnosis and treatment of natural teeth that have been extensively compromised by injury, dental disease, or decay. With their expertise and commitment to providing compassionate care, you can trust that you're in good hands at Endodontic Associates of Greater Waterbury.
