Key Services Under the Spotlight
Root Canal Therapy
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal treatment may be necessary when the inside of your tooth, or the pulp and the roots that descend into the bone, become infected, damaged, and inflamed.
A root canal helps restore oral health and allows you to maintain your natural tooth by cleaning the decay that otherwise could be dangerous if left untreated.
Root canal treatment has a very high success rate at removing infection from inside the tooth.
However, if the infection is extensive, or the previous treatment was performed poorly, the root canal can become reinfected.
At Riverside Endodontics, we specialize in evaluating previously treated root canals and determining the best treatment option. If a retreatment is recommended, we have the most advanced instrumentation and techniques for success.
Trauma
Trauma
Dental and facial trauma refer to physical injuries or damage that affect the teeth, gums, jaw, or other oral structures. Accidents, sports injuries, and falls can cause dental trauma and are most common in kids. Everyone is susceptible to accidents, though.
The severity of dental trauma can range from mild, involving minor cosmetic damage, to severe, causing significant functional and structural issues.
Endodontists are extensively trained and are the specialists in evaluating the extent of the tooth, nerve, root, and jaw trauma, and the steps to stabilize and treat it for long-term success.
Emergency
Emergency
Many dental procedures can be anticipated, planned, and scheduled in advance. Endodontic pain, however, seems to catch you off guard, and symptoms present at inconvenient times. Emergent care is our passion! Not that you’re experiencing an emergency…passionate that we can help in a timely manner!
Apicoectomy
Apicoectomy
An apicoectomy is a simple root end surgical procedure. An apicoectomy may be necessary if the infection from a tooth becomes established in the jawbone and needs to be removed.
With microsurgical techniques, apicoectomies are predictable and successful. Your comfort is our biggest priority, and we communicate every step of the way.
Sedation
Sedation
At Riverside Endodontics, sedation services are available to help patients feel calm and comfortable throughout their treatment. Each option is carefully selected based on your individual needs and medical history, ensuring a safe and relaxed experience while allowing our team to deliver precise and effective endodontic care.
