For decades, root canal therapy has been one of the most common general dentistry treatments for infection inside a tooth. The effectiveness of endodontic procedures has been debated over the years, and we understand that some patients have concerns about conventional root canal therapy.
At the Maine Center for Dental Medicine, we use modern diagnostic tools and a biologic approach to evaluate each patient carefully. Traditional methodology can fall short of the intended purpose of root canal treatment when bacteria remain within the tooth. Our goal is to help patients understand their options and receive care that supports both oral health and overall wellness.
Root canal treatment requires careful diagnosis, precise cleaning, and a strong focus on reducing harmful bacteria. Our approach is designed to help patients make informed decisions about their care.
We evaluate the tooth, surrounding structures, symptoms, and imaging to determine whether root canal therapy is the right option.
Advanced diagnostic imaging allows us to see internal tooth structures more clearly and plan treatment with greater precision.
Ozone may be used as part of treatment because of its ability to assist with disinfection in areas that are difficult to reach.
Whenever possible, we aim to preserve natural teeth while also considering the long-term health of the mouth and body.
Providing expert dental care in the entire Maine with advanced technology in a comfortable and friendly setting. Your smile is our priority!
