23.01.2022 A root canal is always a better choice than extraction because it fixes your natural tooth so you can keep it. However, there are instances when you may need a tooth extraction as a last resort. Then, you’ll need to work with your dentist to determine how to best replace the tooth that was lost. If you’re not sure which procedure is right for you, it’s a good idea to consult with your endodontist. They’ll help you understand the pros and cons of having a root canal and can gi...ve you the best advice on which procedure will work best for your tooth. The main goal is to keep your smile healthy and beautiful, and an endodontist will help you make a decision based on this goal. If you think you may need a root canal, contact us to set up your appointment. #specialistdentist #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth

21.01.2022 If you have failing or missing teeth, there are some excellent tooth-replacement options. However, it’s almost always better to save a natural tooth if at all possible. This is the focus of the dental specialty called endodontics. An endodontist (endo inside, odont tooth) is a dentist who has advanced training in diagnosing and treating problems related to the soft tissue inside the tooth. These specialists perform routine as well as difficult and very complex procedu...res, including root canal treatment, retreatment and endodontic microsurgery. Having a root canal (which is done to remove infected and/or inflamed pulp tissue) often will relieve serious tooth pain right away, and can save a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted. Just as a medical doctor may specialize in a certain area of medicine, dentists can seek further training in specialties like surgery or children’s dentistry. To become a specialist, endodontists must first complete the standard four years of dental school; next, they receive another two to three years of postgraduate training in the diagnosis and treatment of pain and diseases related to the living tissue at the center of the tooth (dental pulp) and its surrounding area. #northshoreendodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #gosford #deewhy #chatswood #rootcanal #savemytooth

19.01.2022 Why are X-rays taken? It is necessary to take a number of radiographs (commonly called x-rays) during treatment - these are required to check various treatment stages. Since the roots are under the gum and in bone, the root canals cannot be seen with the naked eye and can only be visualised using radiographs. Please assist us by providing any X-Rays you may already have at the time of your initial consultation and list of medications you are presently taking.... #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth See more

18.01.2022 With proper care, even teeth that have had root canal treatment can last a lifetime. But sometimes, a tooth that has been treated doesn't heal properly and can become painful or diseased months or even years after treatment. You have a second chance however, as an additional procedure may be able to support healing and save your tooth. Contact us on (02) 6686 9481 to book an appointment if your tooth failed to heal or developed new problems.... #specialistdentist #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth See more

17.01.2022 It's not all about root canal, there are other treatments done by endodontists such as: ** Endodontic retreatment which is needed when a previous root canal treatment fails or the tooth develops new problems. ** Saving a tooth that has been dislodged or completely knocked out of its socket because of trauma or injury. A dislodged tooth can be repositioned and possibly stabilized by splinting it to adjacent teeth, after which root canal therapy is done. The tooth can then heal... and tighten in its socket. ** Endodontic surgery in cases where traditional root canal therapy cannot save a tooth. This includes procedures such as an apicoectomy, which is done to remove the apex (end) of the tooth root when the presence of calcium deposits or accessory canals would otherwise prevent a successful outcome. #northshoreendodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #gosford #deewhy #chatswood #rootcanal #savemytooth

17.01.2022 Teeth can be knocked completely out of a person’s mouth by various accidents for example at home, in playgrounds, in sport, or motor vehicle accidents. These teeth can be saved by quick action. The teeth can be put straight back into place in the mouth (replanted), and can usually return to normal function and appearance. The most critical factor in replanting a tooth is TIME. Quick action to locate the tooth, clean it, replant it, or keep it moist will give the best chance... for success. Teeth that are replanted within 15 minutes have the best chance of surviving. The TIME TAKEN to obtain dental treatment from an endodontist is also critical. If possible have someone telephone to alert the dentist of the accident and get a referral immediately to see us. #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth

15.01.2022 During re-treatment, the endodontist will reopen your tooth and remove the filling materials that were placed in the root canals during the first procedure. He then carefully examines the tooth, looking for additional canals or new infection, then removes any infection, cleans and shapes the canals, and places new filling materials. The opening is then sealed with a temporary filling. Once the tooth heals, a new crown or other restoration is placed on the tooth to protect it. If you are experiencing dental pain or discomfort in a previously treated tooth, talk to us about re-treatment on (02) 6686 9481 #specialistdentist #northshoreendodontics #endodontics #specialist #dentist #chatswood #rootcanal #savemytooth

14.01.2022 SYMPTOM: Sharp pain when biting down on food. POSSIBLE PROBLEM: There are several possible causes of this type of pain: decay, a loose filling or crack in the tooth. There may also be damage to the pulp tissue inside the tooth. WHAT TO DO: See a dentist for evaluation. If the problem is pulp tissue damage, your dentist may send you to us (endodontist). Endodontists are dentists who specialize in pulp-related procedures. We will perform a procedure that cleans out the damaged ...pulp and fills and seals the remaining space. This procedure is commonly called a root canal. #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth See more

08.01.2022 All dentists, including your general dentist, received training in endodontic treatment in dental school. General dentists can perform endodontic procedures along with other dental procedures, but often they refer patients needing endodontic treatment to us, endodontists. We are dentists with special training in endodontic procedures. We provide only endodontic services in our practices because we are specialists. To become specialists, our doctors completed dental school and... an additional two or more years of advanced training in endodontics. They perform routine as well as difficult and very complex endodontic procedures, including endodontic surgery & root canal therapy. They are also experienced at finding the cause of oral and facial pain that has been difficult to diagnose. #specialistdentist #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytooth See more

04.01.2022 Despite the outdated jokes you may have heard, endodontic procedures (especially in the hands of a skilled specialist) involve minimal or no pain. Endodontists use state-of-the-art equipment like ultrasonic instruments that operate via high frequency vibration, fiber optic illuminators, and advanced microscope technology to find disease deep inside the tooth. This allows us to work accurately and efficiently while keeping you as comfortable as possible. We are committed to helping you keep your natural teeth and with proper care, most teeth that have had endodontic treatment can last a very long time even a lifetime :) #northshoreendodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #gosford #deewhy #chatswood #rootcanal #savemytooth

03.01.2022 Endodontic treatment is a complex procedure and the cost will vary depending on the type of tooth and difficulty of the treatment. In general, back teeth (molars) are more difficult to treat than front teeth.... Endodontic treatment is usually less expensive than extracting a tooth and replacing it with an artificial one. Contact us today on (02) 6686 9481 for professional advice on how we can save your natural tooth (or teeth) with great ease and comfort. #northcoastendodontics #endodontics #specialistdentist #specialist #dentist #ballina #rootcanal #savemytoot
