West GA Endodontics

West GA Endodontics is a specialized dental practice located at 6126 Prestley Mill Rd Ste J, Douglasville, GA 30134, with Dr. John O. Green II at its helm. The practice is dedicated to providing high-quality endodontic care, which is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and injuries affecting the dental pulp (nerve, blood vessels, and connective tissue inside the tooth) and the root of the tooth. The core of West GA Endodontics' services revolves around saving natural teeth, primarily through root canal therapy. This common procedure is crucial for eliminating bacteria from infected root canals, relieving pain, and preventing the need for tooth extraction. Beyond initial root canal treatments, they also offer root canal retreatment for cases where a previously treated tooth doesn't heal as expected or experiences recurring pain. Another significant service provided is endodontic surgery, specifically apicoectomy. This procedure involves removing the tip of the tooth's root when conventional root canal treatment isn't sufficient to address an infection. West GA Endodontics also specializes in the diagnosis of tooth pain and sensitivity, helping patients understand the underlying causes of their discomfort and providing appropriate solutions. In addition, they offer emergency dental treatment for severe tooth pain and traumatic dental injuries, as well as cosmetic procedures like whitening traumatized teeth. Patient comfort and advanced technology are central to their practice philosophy. West GA Endodontics employs modern techniques and equipment, including digital radiography (which significantly reduces radiation exposure compared to conventional X-rays) and operating microscopes. These microscopes provide magnification and fiber optic illumination, allowing the endodontist to see tiny details inside the tooth, ensuring precision and accuracy during procedures. They adhere to rigorous infection control standards advocated by leading dental and health organizations. Dr. John O. Green II and his team are committed to patient education, ensuring that individuals are well-informed about their treatment options and fully understand endodontic procedures. The practice aims to provide a friendly, comfortable, and professional environment, with a strong focus on clinical excellence and compassionate care. Their mission is to earn the trust and respect of their patients and the community while striving for continuous improvement in all aspects of their service.
