Endodontics, or root canal treatment, is a dental specialty focused on removing inflamed or infected pulp tissue from the tooth’s canal system. This procedure preserves the tooth, maintaining its health and masticatory function.
Endodontic treatments are indicated for patients experiencing persistent discomfort or pain when chewing, as well as sensitivity to hot or cold foods. If you have these symptoms, it may be time to consult a dental professional for evaluation and possible treatment.
Endodontics effectively eliminates pain and infection in teeth, preventing the need for extractions. This dental procedure restores both functionality and aesthetics to the affected teeth, allowing patients to maintain their natural smiles while ensuring proper oral health.

Root canal treatment, or endodontics, involves removing infection from the tooth’s nerve canal and sealing it to eliminate bacteria. This procedure preserves the patient’s natural teeth, which is always the most conservative option.
At Clínica Dental Serrano Sánchez, we believe in minimally invasive dentistry, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and technology, such as 3D scanners, to achieve precise diagnostics and improve treatment quality for optimal results.

In cases where infection persists in a treated tooth and retreatment is not feasible, periapical endodontic surgery may be necessary. This procedure involves surgically accessing the tip of the tooth root to treat and eliminate the infection, allowing us to maintain natural teeth and adopt the most conservative approach possible.

At our clinic, we utilize advanced 3D scanners and printers to achieve predictable results in transplanting a healthy tooth to replace a diseased one that needs to be extracted. However, this procedure can only be performed under specific conditions. Our endodontics department will guide you on the appropriate procedure for each individual case.
