Southern Minnesota Endodontics

Southern Minnesota Endodontics is a dedicated endodontic clinic located at 1570 Adams St, Mankato, MN 56001. The practice is led by a team of experienced endodontists, including Dr. Paul Hilfer, Dr. Jennie Harris, and Dr. Kyle Nelson. As endodontists, their expertise lies in the diagnosis and treatment of issues related to the dental pulp and surrounding tissues, specializing in saving natural teeth. The clinic prides itself on providing a welcoming, friendly, and compassionate environment, aiming to alleviate the anxiety often associated with endodontic procedures, particularly root canals. They prioritize patient comfort and take the time to thoroughly explain treatment options and address all concerns before any procedure. Southern Minnesota Endodontics offers a comprehensive range of endodontic services. Their primary focus is on Root Canal Therapy, a common procedure used to treat infected or inflamed tooth pulp, preventing the need for extraction. They also specialize in Endodontic Retreatment, for cases where an initial root canal may not have healed as expected, or new issues have arisen. This procedure involves reopening the tooth, removing previous filling material, cleaning the canals, and resealing them. Beyond standard root canals and retreatments, the clinic is equipped to handle complex cases such as Cracked Teeth and Traumatic Dental Injuries. They utilize advanced techniques and technology to diagnose and treat these conditions, aiming to preserve the natural tooth structure whenever possible. Another specialized procedure offered is Apicoectomy, an endodontic surgery performed when non-surgical root canal treatment isn't sufficient. This involves removing the tip of the tooth's root and sealing the area to prevent reinfection. Southern Minnesota Endodontics is committed to providing high-quality care that is both efficient and effective, helping patients maintain optimal oral health.
