At Hershey Family Dentistry, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of dental pulp and nerve-related issues. Our dedicated team is committed to preserving your natural teeth and relieving pain through expert endodontic care.

What is Endodontics? Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the interior health of your teeth, specifically the dental pulp, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When this inner tissue becomes inflamed or infected, it can cause significant pain and, if left untreated, lead to tooth loss. Endodontic treatment, commonly known as a root canal, is designed to save the affected tooth and restore its function.

Our Endodontic Services:

• Root Canal Therapy: This procedure involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, and then filling and sealing it. Root canal therapy can alleviate pain and save a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted.
• Extractions: While our primary goal is always to save your natural teeth, there are circumstances when a tooth extraction is necessary for your overall dental health. Reasons for extraction may include severe decay, advanced periodontal disease, tooth fracture, or preparing for orthodontic treatment.

Why Choose Hershey Family Dentistry for Endodontics? At Hershey Family Dentistry, we understand that the prospect of a root canal can be daunting. That’s why we prioritize your comfort and use the latest techniques and technology to ensure a pain-free and effective treatment experience.
