Root Canal Treatment
Relieves pain and saves the tooth when the pulp becomes inflamed or infected from deep decay, a crack or an injury.
Welcome to Endodontic Associates of Atlanta, where our team of highly skilled and compassionate endodontists provides specialized dental care. Modern root canal treatment is not much different than a routine filling, and most of our treatments relieve pain the same day.
Endodontists complete additional postgraduate training beyond dental school and handle challenging root canal cases every day. When your dentist refers you here, you receive the highest level of endodontic care.
Relieves pain and saves the tooth when the pulp becomes inflamed or infected from deep decay, a crack or an injury.
A second chance for a tooth that has not healed as expected after its initial root canal, even years later.
Root-end surgery that removes infection at the tip of the root when retreatment is not a viable option.
Some cracks are especially difficult to diagnose. We find them with magnification and 3-D imaging, then treat to relieve pain.
All our procedures are performed using the latest technology, so your diagnosis is precise and your treatment is as comfortable and conservative as possible.
Low-dose J. Morita cone beam CT produces a 3-D image of your teeth, nerve pathways and bone in a single scan, exposing the true source of tooth pain.
Up to 20x magnification on every case reveals cracks and tiny canals that cannot be seen with the naked eye, which means higher success rates.
The EdgePRO laser reaches into complex canal anatomy for a deep clean, helping remove up to 90% of the bacteria commonly found in the root canal system.
We understand that visiting the dentist can be a stressful experience. That is why we strive to create a calm, reassuring visit from the moment you walk in, with personalized treatment plans that cater to the unique needs of each patient.
