Endodontics

Saving and Protecting Your Natural Teeth

Endodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating issues related to the dental pulp and roots of the teeth. When a tooth becomes infected or severely damaged, endodontic treatments like root canal therapy can relieve pain and prevent extraction. At Northwest Family Dental, we use advanced techniques to remove infection, restore tooth structure, and protect your natural smile. By preserving your original teeth, endodontics helps maintain proper chewing function and overall oral health. If you’re experiencing tooth pain or sensitivity, our skilled team is here to provide effective, comfortable solutions to keep your smile healthy for years to come.
