If you have been told by your general dentist that you might need endodontic treatment or root canal therapy, you may be uneasy about the procedure or where to start to find a good endodontist in your area. If you are looking for an endodontist “close to me” or “near me” in the area of Cartersville, Georgia, our team at Endodontics Associates of Georgia invites you to contact the office to request an upcoming visit. Let’s look at why you might need to visit an endodontist and what you can expect from your services there.
There are several signs that may indicate the need for root canal therapy. These include:
In some cases, there may be no visible symptoms at all, which is why it is best to visit your general or family dentist regularly for check-ups.
While many general dentists are trained to perform root canal therapy, endodontists have received additional education and training specifically in diagnosing and treating certain issues related to the inner structures of teeth. They also have specialized tools and techniques that allow them to more effectively perform root canal therapy, resulting in a higher success rate and potentially saving the tooth from extraction.
During the first visit, your endodontist at Endodontics Associates of Georgia will thoroughly examine your tooth and surrounding tissues. This may include dental X-rays to better examine the inner structures of the tooth. From there, our team can determine if root canal therapy is needed and explain the treatment process in detail. They might also discuss any potential alternatives or additional treatments that might be necessary for optimal results.
At Endodontics Associates of Georgia, our team strives to provide top-quality care and a comfortable experience for all of our patients. We understand that root canal therapy might seem intimidating, but we are dedicated to making the process as pain-free and successful as possible. However, we can talk to you about what you can expect, including anesthesia and sedation, for a comfortable experience in the endodontist’s chair!
