LEARN MORE ABOUT ENDODONTIC PROCEDURES:

What Is Endodontic Treatment?
Endodontics is a dental specialty focused on treating the inner structures of the tooth—namely the pulp and root canals. This inner pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When it becomes infected due to decay, trauma, or cracks, it can cause severe discomfort and jeopardize the tooth’s survival.
Endodontic treatment, typically root canal therapy, aims to remove the damaged pulp, clean and shape the canals, and then seal the area to prevent reinfection. With today’s modern technology and techniques—especially innovations like the GentleWave® system—these treatments are more comfortable, efficient, and successful than ever before.
Comprehensive Endodontic Services
At Cameo Dental Specialists, our offices provides a full suite of services beyond standard root canals. These include:
Root Canal Therapy
This is the cornerstone of our practice. Whether it’s a first-time procedure or a complex molar case, our team ensures your treatment is quick, thorough, and as pain-free as possible. Using microscopic magnification and digital diagnostics allows for enhanced precision and effectiveness.
Root Canal Retreatment
If you’ve had a root canal in the past but are still experiencing pain or infection, our endodontists can assess and perform retreatment. We use advanced diagnostics to identify lingering issues and provide solutions that restore long-term health.
Periapical Surgery (Apicoectomy)
In cases where infection persists at the tip of the root even after a root canal, a surgical procedure called apicoectomy may be necessary. This microsurgical technique removes the infected tissue while preserving the tooth.
Treatment for Traumatic Dental Injuries
Whether due to sports injuries or accidents, teeth can be displaced, fractured, or knocked out. Our specialists are skilled in handling dental trauma cases promptly to give your tooth the best chance of recovery.
GentleWave® Procedure
GentleWave® is a revolutionary alternative to traditional root canal treatment. This minimally invasive technology reaches into the microscopic spaces of your root system, providing a more comprehensive cleaning while preserving more of the natural tooth structure. It also reduces the need for multiple visits, helping you get back to your life faster.
