Having a family dentist you know well is a comfortable and reassuring thing. But what happens when the dentist recommends an endodontist? Why would they? If you’re wondering why you would need to see an endodontist, wonder no more. Here are 3 reasons to see an Endodontist!
1. Experience and Knowledge
An Endodontist has more school than a general dentist, and regularly does root canal procedures. As in most cases, a specialist like an Endodontist will mean specialized care informed by broad experience and may mean plenty of successful results already. If you want the most experienced and knowledgeable dentist to do your root canal, an Endodontist is a great choice!
2. Access to Better Care
If you choose to see an Endodontist, as a specialist they may have facilities, staff, and technology that will make the most of your visit. If your goal is to have a smooth and comfortable experience with your root canal, an Endodontist may be your best bet, since they have access to resources, technology and knowledge your general dentist may not.
3. More Options
Due to the access to better resources and technologies, choosing to see an Endodontist may have more options to manage discomfort during the procedure. Discuss with your Endodontist what your needs and history look like to come up with the best strategy to achieve as comfortable and pleasant of an experience as possible.
