Endodontics

Alliance Dental Center strives to provide optimum care for our patients. Dr. Holden, a dentist with specialized training in endodontics, cares for our patients who may be in need of root canal therapy.

A common misconception is that a root canal is a painful procedure. Actually, root canals are similar to having a cavity filled, producing minimal pain.

Common causes for the need of endodontic treatment:

• Inflamed/infected tooth pulp
• Severe sensitivity to hot and cold elements
• Tooth decay
• Chipped or broken tooth
• Blow to the tooth
• Swelling or tenderness near the infected tooth
• Repeated dental procedures on a tooth

Please contact our office for an evaluation if you experience any of the symptoms above, and we will refer you to an endodontic specialist.
