DENTAL SPECIALIST
Endodontics is a specialty branch of dentistry that focuses on treating the inside of the tooth, particularly the pulp and root canals. Endodontists are specially trained to diagnose and treat tooth pain and perform procedures such as root canal therapy, which involves removing infected or damaged tissue from the tooth’s pulp and root canals. They also perform procedures to save damaged or injured teeth that might otherwise need to be extracted. At Georgian Mall Dental Group, our experienced endodontists use the latest techniques and technology to provide our patients with the highest quality endodontic care. If you are experiencing tooth pain or other dental problems, contact us today to schedule an appointment with one of our skilled endodontists.

In most cases, endodontic treatment is a relatively simple and straightforward procedure, so we’re often able to perform your root canal in the same session as your initial consultation. Your first visit with your Endodontist will begin by reviewing your medical history and any medications you’re currently taking. Your Endodontist will also carefully explain the procedure and why it is necessary, and address any questions or concerns you might have.
Once you feel comfortable with the procedure, we will begin treatment. General anesthesia for endodontic treatment endodontic treatment is usually not required, so you should be able to leave this appointment soon afterward and get back to your normal daily routine.
Please make sure you bring the following to your first appointment:
• Your referral slip
• X-rays from your referring dentist (if applicable)
• A complete list of any medications you are currently taking (including any herbal remedies)
• Dental insurance information (if applicable)
Please note, all patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

You can start cleaning your baby’s mouth even at a young age, before getting their first teeth. Simply wipe their gums and teeth area with a clean, damp washcloth.
Many parents don’t realize that those “healthy alternative” such as fruit snacks are actually worse for their child’s oral health – because it sticks to the teeth longer than something like chocolate that is easier to wash away. A best practice is to try to minimize sugary foods. Look for healthier options such as: cheese cubes and carrots.
Plastic and rubber chew toys aren’t your only option to ease your baby’s teething pain. A cold, damp washcloth can also help numb the ache and inflammation, while a gentle massage can also help relieve the pain.
A Pediatric Dentist specializes in children’s oral health, and can help accommodate dental fears and anxiety. To help them stay calm, or when the procedure warrants, we can consult with you on solutions such as laughing gas, oral sedation and general anesthesia (dentistry asleep)
Avoid giving your child milk or juice in their bottle before nap and bedtime because the sugars will stay on their teeth; instead, make a routine out of using a washcloth to gently clean their mouth before they go “nighty night.”
1. Handle the tooth carefully and do not touch the root.
2. If the tooth is dirty, hold by the crown and rinse with milk. (or water if you don’t have milk)
3. Keep the tooth moist – drop it in a glass of milk, or have your child spit in a cup and store the tooth in their saliva. 4. If your child has calmed down, you can try slipping the tooth back into its socket (but don’t try to force it); otherwise keep it moist in the glass of milk or saliva.
5. See a specialist at Georgian Mall Dental Group as soon as possible.
TIP.
When you see a dentist within 1 hour of the tooth being knocked out, you dramatically increase the chances of the tooth being saved.
