What is an Endodontist?

An endodontist is a specialized dental professional dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the dental pulp and the surrounding tissues, specifically those around the roots of the teeth. The dental pulp, situated in the innermost part of a tooth, encompasses nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue.

Endodontics is a recognized dental specialty that emphasizes the diagnosis and treatment of dental pulp and periradicular conditions, ensuring the health and vitality of the tooth's internal structures.

While endodontists specialize in this field, general dentists at Aaron Periodontics and Dental Implants are highly skilled in delivering effective endodontic treatments.
