Endodontic Specialty Care

Endodontic Specialty Care, located at 6143 N Northwest Hwy, Chicago, IL 60631, is a specialized dental clinic dedicated to endodontics, the branch of dentistry focused on the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the root of a tooth. The practice is led by Dr. John Nowak, an experienced endodontist with over 20 years in the field. The clinic's mission is to help patients achieve healthier lives by providing high-quality endodontic solutions in a comfortable and nurturing environment. Endodontic Specialty Care offers a comprehensive range of services, primarily focusing on procedures that save natural teeth. These include: Root Canal Therapy: A common procedure to remove inflamed or infected pulp from inside a tooth, clean and shape the root canals, and then fill and seal them. Endodontic Retreatment: This procedure is performed when a previously treated tooth does not heal properly or becomes re-infected, involving reopening the tooth to clean and re-seal the canals. Apicoectomy: A surgical procedure to remove the tip of the tooth's root and the infected tissue around it, often performed when a root canal alone isn't sufficient. Treatment of Traumatic Dental Injuries: Addressing injuries to teeth that may affect the pulp, such as fractures or dislodged teeth. Diagnosing Cracked Teeth: Identifying and treating cracks in teeth that can lead to pain and infection. The clinic prides itself on clinical excellence, utilizing the latest technological advancements and innovative treatments to minimize pain and ensure rapid, complete recovery for patients. They prioritize compassionate care, aiming to alleviate patient anxiety by thoroughly explaining procedures, treatment expectations, and costs. Endodontic Specialty Care accepts major credit cards and CareCredit, and their staff assists with insurance paperwork. They also make efforts to accommodate emergency cases, often seeing patients on the same day to relieve pain quickly.
