An endodontist is a dentist with two years of additional specialized training in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the dental pulp and supporting structures, as well as oral and facial pain.
General dentists often perform endodontic treatment in their offices and refer patients to a specialist only when the case is difficult or complex. We perform these procedures all day, every day, so we’re usually able to do them faster and much more comfortably than a general dentist can.
