Saving Your Natural Teeth with Advanced Endodontic Care

When a tooth becomes infected or severely decayed, endodontic treatment can save it from extraction. At Hill Family Dental in Orem, UT, we specialize in advanced endodontic procedures to relieve pain and restore your natural teeth.

What Is Endodontics?

Endodontics focuses on diagnosing and treating issues within the tooth’s pulp and roots. The most common procedure, root canal therapy, removes infection from inside the tooth, preventing further damage and preserving its function.

Signs You May Need Endodontic Treatment

Severe Tooth Pain – Persistent pain when chewing or biting.
Sensitivity to Hot or Cold – Lingering discomfort after temperature changes.
Swollen or Tender Gums – Signs of infection near the affected tooth.
Darkened Tooth – A tooth that has become discolored due to nerve damage.
Pimple on the Gums – A sign of an abscess or severe infection.
