What's actually happening during a root canal? 🦷 It's a routine procedure that treats and saves damaged or diseased teeth, restoring health and relieving pain.
Beneath your enamel and dentin is soft pulp that helps your tooth develop. Once mature, your tooth stays healthy without it. A root canal doesn’t remove roots—it simply cleans the inside of your tooth! 💦
While an IRL root canal won't take 30 seconds, it's quick and painless, especially at the hands of an endodontist! Learn more about endodontic treatment and saving your tooth in our bio. ✨

Who is an #endodontist? 🦷
Endodontists are dentists with two to three years of additional training. Their additional schooling makes them experts in diagnosing and treating tooth pain, most often with root canal treatment or other endodontic procedures. ✨
They use special equipment that helps them see what they otherwise could not. CBCT scans-- or Cone Beam Computed Tomography-- allows them to see your tooth in three dimensions, identifying hidden cracks, fractures, or inflammation. 🩻
They also work under microscopes, so they can see the tiny anatomy inside of your tooth up close. 🔬
For these reasons and more, endodontists are the specialists in root canal treatment. If you suspect you might need a root canal or are experiencing pain or sensitivity, find an endodontist today using our online directory! 🦷

Nothing looks, feels or function quite like your natural teeth, so it's always option #1 to save them. While it's not always possible, endodontists are the specialists best suited to determine if it can be saved. They're experts at diagnosing and treating tooth pain. 💪
This #SaveYourToothMonth, don't extract that problem tooth before getting an endodontist's eyes on it. And always opt to save it when possible! ✨
