Our Services

At Endodontic Associates of Greater Waterbury, we provide a wide range of services, including:

• Apicoectomy: Also known as root-end resection, an apicoectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove infected tissue from the root tip. This procedure is typically recommended when inflammation and infection persist after a root canal treatment or retreatment.
• Anxiolysis: Sometimes called "laughing gas, " anxiolysis is a technique used to manage anxiety and help patients relax during procedures. It involves the inhalation of a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen through a mask placed over the nose.
• Cracked Teeth: Cracked teeth can be painful and lead to more severe issues if left untreated. We offer various treatment options for cracked teeth based on the severity and location of the crack.
• Endodontic Retreatment: In some cases, a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment may not heal as expected or become painful again. Endodontic retreatment involves reopening the tooth, removing the filling materials, and carefully examining the tooth. After cleaning and shaping the canals, the doctor will fill and seal the canals and place a temporary restoration.
• Toothaches: Toothaches can be caused by various factors, including tooth decay, dental trauma, or infection. Our team will diagnose the cause of your toothache and recommend the appropriate treatment to alleviate your pain and restore your oral health.
• Root Canals: Root canal procedures have a high success rate and are considered one of the most effective methods of saving and retaining a tooth that has been severely compromised by dental issues. We utilize state-of-the-art technology and proven methods of care to ensure precise and gentle treatment.
• Traumatic Injuries: Traumatic dental injuries can range from chipped teeth to more severe issues, such as avulsed (knocked-out) teeth. Seeking immediate treatment after a dental injury is essential for preserving the health of the injured tooth.
