If you’ve even heard of endodontic care, the first thing that comes to mind is probably a root canal. While we provide gentle and stress-free root canal therapy at Hunt Family Dentistry, our endodontic care is much more than that. Dr. Hunt and the rest of our Frisco dentist team are able to manage all the care related to the soft, inner tissue of your teeth. From assisting you with sensitivity issues to addressing specific problems, we handle your endodontic needs with the utmost care, professionalism, and compassion.
Endodontic care is a specialized area of dentistry focused on treating the soft pulp tissue inside your teeth. Cavities and damage can affect that pulp, even leading to issues like infection. Since the pulp of your tooth contains nerves and blood vessels, inflammation and infection can be very painful. It can also pose a risk to the rest of your body’s health.
Instead of performing a tooth extraction, Dr. Hunt performs endodontic procedures like pulpotomies and root canals to prevent further damage. Put simply, endodontics saves your teeth! You get to keep your natural tooth but don’t have to worry about the sensitive pulp any longer.
A root canal is an endodontic therapy aimed at saving a tooth that has been severely damaged or infected. The process involves removing all the pulp within the tooth, including the nerves and blood vessels. Once the pulp is removed, we carefully clean the inside of the tooth and disinfect it before filling and sealing the open space with a body-safe material. We cap off the tooth with a dental crown or dental filling for protection and to restore its full function.
This is a common procedure we perform for younger patients. Pulpotomies are often required when decay or injury has affected the pulp of their tooth. We remove the damaged part of the pulp, disinfect the area, and seal it to prevent further damage. This not only alleviates pain but also preserves your child’s tooth, allowing for natural growth and smile alignment. Our team uses a gentle touch and the latest techniques to ensure your child’s dental health is restored with minimal discomfort.
At Hunt Family Dentistry, we’re specialists in treating the delicate interior of the tooth. Our pulpotomies and root canals are performed with both your oral health and comfort in mind. However, those procedures are just part of the picture. Our Frisco dental practice is just as focused on preventative endodontic care. We can give you tips on brushing and flossing properly as well as schedule your routine checkups to keep your smile strong. We can even take extra steps, like providing custom TMJ night guards for teeth grinding to reduce your risk of worn or cracked teeth.
Dr. Hunt is an endodontic specialist because he focuses on all aspects of your dental health. Whether you’re in need of a pulpotomy for your child’s aching tooth or root canal therapy to reclaim the health and comfort of your smile, Hunt Family Dentistry is here for you.
