- Fillings
- CrownsThe Endodontist removes the inflammed or infected pulp, carefully cleans and shapes the canal system and then seals the prepared space in the roots. Often treatment can be performed in a single appointment ranging from 1-2 hours. Depending on the tooth, two-visits may be necessary to medicate the space for an extended period of time before sealing the roots. Once root canal treatment is completed, you may be instructed to return to your dentist for a permanent restoration (crown or bonded filling) of the top of the tooth. The restoration of the tooth is an important part of treatment because it seals the root canal filling from the oral environment, protects the tooth from fracture and restores it to function.
