- Fillings
- CrownsThere will be a temporary filling in the tooth after the root canal treatment is completed. This temporary can seal the opening for up to 4 weeks. We recommend that you see your dentist for a definitive filling / crown within this time period. If you are still experiencing symptoms, we request that you contact our office prior to seeing your dentist for the final restoration. Failure to have a definitive filling placed can lead to re-contamination of the root canal system and the need for a root canal retreatment to be performed resulting in additional time and expense for you.

- DenturesAs a consumer you deserve to have all possible information prior to making any decisions about your healthcare. Options include extraction of the tooth and replacement with either a dental implant (screw placed in the bone with a false tooth to replace the missing one), bridge (two crowns cemented on the teeth on either side with a false tooth in the center) or a removable partial denture (a false tooth / teeth to replace the missing tooth / teeth that can be removed from the mouth)

- Teeth WhiteningAn endodontist is a dentist who has completed a 2 or 3 year specialty program beyond dental school that focuses on endodontic (root canal) therapy. This additional training expands extensively on the dental school endodontic curriculum. As specialists, endodontists specifically perform root canal treatment and associated procedures. These include complex root canal therapy, retreatments of existing root canals, root-end surgeries, whitening of root canal treated teeth and treatment of traumatic injuries in children and adults.
