Endodontics

Endodontics in Pickering, Ontario

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis of and treatment of diseases of the dental pulp. The dental pulp is the tissue contained within a tooth that is composed of nerves, blood vessels, and several other tissues.

Dental Pulp Disease and Infection

Whether due to decay or traumatic injury, the dental pulp can be susceptible to disease and become inflamed. The resulting damage can be so extensive that the tissue can no longer recover despite treatment, and the pulp eventually dies.

When not treated by a dentist, the dead pulp tissue combined with bacteria can gradually affect the bone and cause infection. The incurability of a diseased pulp often necessitates that it be completely removed to alleviate pain and prevent the infection from spreading. This is done via a root canal therapy.

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy addresses the source of infection and inflammation. As opposed to removing a tooth completely, root canal therapy only targets the infected pulp. A small opening is created in the infected tooth, the infected pulp is removed and replaced with dental material. The tooth is subsequently protected from the recurrence of infection. The application of a crown to protect the tooth will then be needed.
