Sarasota Endodontics Glossary

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry dealing with the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases of the dental pulp.

When the pulp is diseased or injured it becomes infected. Left untreated, the pulp will die and become necrotic. With endodontic treatment the diseased pulp tissue is removed enabling the body defense system to repair the damage caused by the infection.

With today's advances in dentistry, having your damaged root canals done is no longer a scary experience. Regardless of the root canal cause, your teeth can be saved using modern therapy to do the root canal treatment.
