Endodontics in Chișinău
Endodontics is the area of dentistry that diagnoses and treats diseases of the pulp, the soft tissue with the nerve inside the tooth, and of the root canals. We carry out endodontic treatment when inflammation or infection reaches the inner tissues of the tooth. Our main task is to remove the source of infection, keep the tooth and avoid extraction.
We treat both first-time inflammation and more difficult cases, where earlier canal treatment did not give the result it should have.
Before treatment the doctor assesses the tooth on the X-ray, explains how complex the case is and what the outlook is. You will know whether the tooth can be saved and exactly how the treatment will go.
Stages of endodontic treatment
Diagnosis and assessment of the tooth
We carry out an examination and the necessary X-ray diagnostics, and assess the shape of the root canals, the degree of inflammation and whether the tooth can be saved. This information helps the doctor plan the canal treatment.
Treatment plan
We explain how complex the case is, how many visits are needed and what result to expect.
Cleaning and shaping the canals
We carefully clean the canals of infection and work precisely, so as not to damage healthy tissue.
Filling the canals
We fill the canals with a tight seal, to prevent renewed inflammation.
Check and restoration of the tooth
We check the result and recommend how to restore the tooth afterwards, with a filling or a crown.
Why you should not put off endodontic treatment
- The inflammation spreads further.
Infection can travel beyond the root of the tooth. - The risk of losing the tooth grows.
The longer you wait, the smaller the chance of keeping the tooth. - Treatment becomes more complex.
Retreatment or surgery may be needed. - Severe pain or swelling appears.
Acute conditions often arise suddenly.
Why choose us for endodontics
A focus on saving the tooth
In endodontics we treat the canals whenever it makes sense, to avoid extraction and more complex restoration later.
Well-founded treatment planning
We make decisions on the basis of X-rays and the real clinical situation, not by eye.
Work with complex canals
We also do retreatment and take on cases with a risk of renewed inflammation.
Comfortable anaesthesia
We numb the tooth fully before we open it and check that you feel nothing before we continue. If the tooth is inflamed and numbs poorly, we add anaesthetic during the treatment.
Quality control of the treatment
We check that the canals are filled completely and tightly, to lower the risk of complications.
A clear outlook
We explain straight away whether the tooth can be kept in the long term and what will affect the result.
