Algoma
Endodontics is a dedicated endodontic clinic located at 212 Queen St E,
Sault Ste. Marie, ON P6A 5X8, Canada. The clinic specializes in endodontic treatments, which focus on the complex structures inside the teeth, including the pulp, tissues, nerves, and arterioles. This specialized branch of dentistry aims to save natural teeth that have been affected by disease or injury, often through procedures like
Root Canal therapy.
The clinic is led by Dr. Diana E. Paczesny, a recognized endodontic specialist in the region. Unlike general dentists who offer a broad range of services, endodontists like Dr. Paczesny have received additional advanced training after dental school, allowing them to perform both complex and simple procedures related to the inner tooth structures. Their expertise is crucial in cases where a tooth's nerve is diseased, traditionally leading to extraction, but which can often be saved through specialized endodontic treatment.
The primary service offered by Algoma Endodontics is root canal treatment, which involves the removal of diseased or inflamed
Dental Pulp from inside a tooth. This procedure is performed to alleviate pain, prevent the spread of infection, and preserve the natural tooth. In addition to initial root canal treatments, endodontic practices may also offer services such as endodontic retreatment (for teeth that have not healed properly after a previous root canal), and potentially endodontic surgery like apicoectomy, which involves removing the tip of the tooth root.
Patients are often referred to Algoma Endodontics by their general dentists when specialized care for inner tooth problems is required. The clinic's focus on a single specialty ensures a high level of expertise and access to advanced techniques and equipment for optimal patient outcomes. Patients seeking treatment at Algoma Endodontics can expect a thorough examination, discussion of treatment options, and a commitment to saving their natural teeth with predictable results.
