Dr. Thomson and Dr. Kjar perform the following procedures to address your endodontic needs:

Root Canals

Inside a tooth there are hollow chambers, or canals. These canals have a soft tissue in them called pulp tissue.

Apicoectomy

A surgery, or apicoectomy, is usually performed on a tooth that has had a previous root canal that has failed. A persistent infection is one of the few reasons an apicoectomy is performed.

Post-Op Instructions

After treatment is completed, we place a temporary filling in your tooth. Hard and “seedy” foods (popcorn, carrots, etc.) should be avoided.

Bone loss that is caused by infection will regenerate after the proper procedure has been performed. This usually takes several months.
