Southwest Endodontics

Southwest Endodontics is a dedicated endodontic practice with locations in Orland Park and Geneva, Illinois. As specialists in endodontics, their primary focus is on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the dental pulp and the tissues surrounding the roots of teeth. This includes a wide range of services designed to alleviate tooth pain and preserve natural teeth, with a particular emphasis on root canal therapy. The clinic prides itself on providing patient-centered care, aiming to make visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible. They understand that dental procedures can cause anxiety and offer various options to help patients feel relaxed, including clear communication about what to expect during treatment and the possibility of dental sedation. The team is comprised of highly knowledgeable, skilled, and compassionate professionals committed to ensuring patient comfort and satisfaction. Southwest Endodontics utilizes state-of-the-art equipment and advanced technology, such as digital radiography for 3D views of teeth and jaws, and special microscopes with magnification and fiber optic illumination, to ensure accurate diagnoses and effective treatments. Their services extend beyond standard root canal therapy to include endodontic retreatment, apicoectomy (surgical removal of infected root tips), pediatric endodontics for children's dental trauma and infections, and treatment for cracked or traumatized teeth. They also handle emergency cases, striving to see patients experiencing severe pain or swelling as quickly as possible. The practice works closely with referring dentists but also welcomes direct appointments from patients. They accept various insurance plans and offer different payment options to accommodate patient budgets, providing upfront cost information. Their mission statement emphasizes uncompromising excellence in dental care, earning patient trust, exceeding expectations, and fostering a compassionate professional environment. Dr. Beth Damas, a DDS with an MS degree from the University of Illinois College of Dentistry and specialized training in endodontics from the University of Detroit Mercy, is one of the key practitioners.
