Endodontics

Endodontics

Endodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating problems related to the dental pulp—the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. The most common endodontic procedure is the root canal treatment, a highly effective way to save a natural tooth that is infected or severely decayed.

At Apollo Dental Hospital, Dr. Samiksha Acharya offers advanced, pain-free endodontic care using the latest techniques and technologies to ensure patient comfort and long-term success. With over 14 years of experience, Dr. Samiksha and her team are committed to preserving your natural teeth and restoring oral health with precision and care.

When is Endodontic Treatment Needed?
Endodontic care becomes necessary when the pulp inside the tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or trauma. Common symptoms include severe toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling, and discoloration of the tooth.

 

Services Offered Under Endodontics:

  • Root Canal Treatment (RCT): A procedure that removes infected pulp, cleans and disinfects the root canals, and seals the tooth to prevent further infection. It helps preserve the natural tooth and eliminates the need for extraction.

  • Single-Visit Root Canal: Using modern rotary instruments and digital technology, many root canals can now be completed in a single visit with high precision and minimal discomfort.

  • Re-Root Canal Treatment: If a previously treated tooth becomes reinfected, re-treatment may be necessary to restore function and health.

  • Apexification and Apexogenesis: Specialized procedures for immature teeth with open root tips, often performed in children or young adults.

  • Endodontic Surgery (Apicoectomy): In rare cases, a minor surgical procedure may be needed to remove infected tissue from the root tip and surrounding bone.

At Apollo Dental Hospital, we use digital X-rays, apex locators, and rotary endodontic systems to ensure accuracy and enhance patient comfort during all procedures. Dr. Samiksha Acharya’s meticulous approach ensures that patients experience minimal pain and maximum results.

Root canal treatments have a reputation for being painful, but with modern anesthetics and techniques, they are now as comfortable as getting a filling. Choosing endodontic care means saving your natural tooth and maintaining your natural bite, speech, and smile.

Trust Dr. Samiksha Acharya for expert, gentle endodontic care that puts your comfort and oral health first.
