Endodontics is the branch of clinical dentistry associated with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the pathology of the dental pulp and their sequelae.
Endodontics deals with prevention and treatment of pulp and periapical diseases and dental pain management. Endodontics manages the causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and injuries of the dental pulp and peri-radicular tissues, usually by removal of the nerve and affected tissues of the pulp cavity and its replacement with suitable filling material known as root canal treatment.
During root canal treatment, the inflamed or infected pulp is removed and after careful cleaning and disinfection, it is filled and sealed with a rubber-like material called “gutta-percha.”
Advanced endodontic treatment procedures like Apexification, Apexogenesis, Complicated RCTs, Hemisection, Radisection, Apicectomy Splinting, and Endodontic surgery are also handled by this department.
The department also deals with Aesthetic dentistry which includes various esthetic treatments like Diastema closure, Laminates, Veneers, Crowns, Smile design, Tooth whitening (bleaching) and Tooth coloured restorations.
