What Types of Dental Emergencies Can an Endodontist Treat?
Endodontists like Dr. Kim are specialists in treating dental emergencies involving the inner tissues of the teeth, particularly those requiring root canal treatment. If you’ve cracked or broken a tooth, are experiencing intense pain, or have lingering sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks, it could indicate that the pulp inside of your tooth is damaged or infected. Other warning signs include swelling, tenderness, or even a pimple-like bump on the gums. In any case, prompt endodontic care can relieve pain, halt infection, and help save your natural teeth.
