An endo initial treatment, also known as a root canal treatment, is a common endodontic procedure used to treat a tooth that has become infected or inflamed. During this treatment, the endodontist will carefully remove the infected or damaged pulp from the inside of the tooth and clean out the root canals. Once the canals are clean, they will be filled with a special material to help prevent further infection or damage. The tooth may also be capped with a crown or other restoration to protect it and restore its function. Endo initial treatment is typically performed under local anesthesia and can often be completed in one or two visits, depending on the severity of the infection or damage. If you are experiencing tooth pain or other symptoms of dental problems, contact an endodontist at Georgian Mall Dental Group to schedule an evaluation and learn more about your treatment options.
