Endodontic & Cosmetic Dentistry
Endodontic and cosmetic dentistry are two specialized branches that work hand-in-hand to restore oral health and enhance the aesthetics of your smile. While endodontics focuses on treating the interior of the tooth, cosmetic dentistry aims to improve the appearance of teeth and overall smile.
Endodontic dentistry:
Endodontic dentistry, often referred to as root canal therapy, focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases or injuries that affect the dental pulp, which is the soft tissue inside the tooth. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can cause severe tooth pain and sensitivity. Endodontic treatment involves removing the infected pulp, disinfecting the root canal system, and sealing the space to protect against future infections.
Cosmetic dentistry:
Cosmetic dentistry, on the other hand, is devoted to enhancing the appearance of a patient's smile. Its primary objective is to improve the shape, color, size, and overall alignment of teeth to create a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing smile. Cosmetic dentistry offers a range of treatments, each tailored to address specific dental imperfections and achieve a beautiful, confident smile.
