When it comes to oral health, detecting and treating problems as early as possible is critical. If you’ve experienced any persistent tooth pain or dental sensitivity, it may be worthwhile to consider endodontic treatment.

At Artaza Dental, we offer a range of services to help diagnose and address these issues using laser dentistry. By using laser technology, Dr. Artaza can make procedures more precise, reduce discomfort and healing time, and help ensure a successful outcome for every patient.

• Root Canal Therapy: It is commonly performed to relieve pain, save the tooth, and prevent the spread of infection due to severe decay, cracks, or trauma. Root canal therapy is a dental procedure to remove infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth and fill it with a particular material to prevent further infection. Moreover, the treatment is effective in restoring the health and function of a damaged tooth.
• Pulpectomy: A pulpectomy is the complete removal of the tooth’s pulp, which is the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels. While pulpectomies are typically performed on severely damaged baby teeth, they can also be done on permanent teeth.
• Apicoectomy: When a root canal has proven unsuccessful or when there is a persistent infection in the tooth root, Dr. Artaza might recommend an apicoectomy. This surgical procedure aims to remove infected tissue or lesions at the tip of the tooth root.
