Endodontic Procedures
At Lubbock Dental Specialists, we offer many services at our offices in Lubbock, Amarillo, and Plainview, TX. Dr. Scherer offers many endodontic treatments to preserve the health of your existing teeth. We invite you to learn more about the services we provide and schedule a consultation to find out which procedure is right for you and your oral health needs.
Root Canal Treatment
When the pulp inside a tooth is infected, we perform root canal treatment to remove the infection and save the tooth.
Endodontic Retreatment
If a tooth does not heal properly following root canal treatment, we can remove previous fillings, clean the root canals, and insert new fillings.
Endodontic Surgery
Surgery may be necessary to locate and treat fractures, hidden canals, or abscesses if root canal therapy could not save a tooth.
Post and Core Buildup
If a tooth has an insufficient structure to support a crown or bridge, we can build up the tooth’s root and crown to support the restoration.
Endodontic Emergencies
We provide urgent care for endodontic emergencies, such as cracked or infected teeth and severe tooth pain.
