Endodontics
Endodontics, also known as root canal therapy, is a specialized treatment used to save teeth that have been severely damaged by deep cavities, trauma, or infections. At Mayo Dental Clinic, our focus is on preserving your natural teeth, eliminating pain, and restoring full function—always with the most advanced techniques and a gentle approach.
How does it work?
-
Diagnostic Evaluation
We use digital X-rays and clinical tests to determine the extent of the damage and confirm if endodontic therapy is the best option. -
Removal of Infected Pulp
Under local anesthesia, the infected or inflamed dental pulp is carefully removed, providing immediate pain relief. -
Cleaning & Sealing of the Canals
We disinfect the root canals thoroughly and seal them with biocompatible materials to prevent future infections. -
Restoration of the Tooth
To protect and strengthen the tooth, we place a crown or aesthetic resin, ensuring it looks and functions just like a natural tooth.
Available Treatments
✔️ Conventional Endodontics
Standard root canal treatment performed when the pulp (nerve) of the tooth is infected or inflamed, helping to avoid extraction.
✔️ Root Canal Retreatment
For teeth that were previously treated but present new issues, we remove the old filling material, clean the canals again, and seal them properly.
✔️ Apicogenesis or Apicoformation
Specialized procedures for young patients with immature roots, promoting the natural development and strengthening of the tooth root.
