DO I STILL NEED TREATMENT IF I DON’T HAVE PAIN?

Even without pain, underlying issues can still be present. A proper assessment helps determine if treatment is needed.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY IN ENDODONTIC CARE

Modern endodontic technology allows for more precise diagnosis of cracked teeth. This helps improve accuracy, increase comfort, and support more predictable outcomes.

HOW LONG WILL THE TOOTH LAST?

With the right care, a treated tooth can last for many years. Long-term success depends on factors like restoration and oral hygiene.

WHAT IS A CRACKED TOOTH?

A cracked tooth occurs when a small fracture develops in the structure of the tooth, often caused by biting forces, grinding, or previous dental work. These cracks are not always visible but can allow bacteria to enter and irritate the inner part of the tooth.

Depending on the severity, the crack can affect the outer enamel or extend deeper toward the nerve. Early diagnosis allows us to stabilise the tooth, relieve discomfort, and prevent further damage or infection.

Endodontic Treatment

In many cases, a tooth affected by infection or inflammation can be treated effectively with endodontic care. Designed to relieve discomfort while preserving your natural tooth.

In some cases, a previously treated tooth may not heal as expected or may develop new issues over time.

The tooth is carefully reopened, previous materials are removed, and the canals are cleaned and sealed again to resolve infection and preserve the natural tooth.

Root Canal Surgery

Also known as an ‘Apicoectomy’, Root Canal Surgery is a microsurgical procedure used when infection persists after root canal treatment.

Led by Dr. William Nudera, this procedure involves removing the tip of the root and sealing the area to prevent further infection. It allows us to preserve the natural tooth when conventional treatment alone is not sufficient.

What to Expect During Cracked Tooth Treatment

Cracked tooth treatment begins with a careful assessment to understand the extent of the damage and identify the source of your symptoms. Using advanced imaging and specialist techniques, we’re able to accurately diagnose even small or hard to detect cracks.

Once we understand what’s happening, we’ll talk you through the best way to protect the tooth. This may involve placing a crown to stabilise it, or root canal treatment if the inner part of the tooth has been affected, all carried out with a focus on comfort throughout.

After treatment, the tooth is restored and protected to support long-term health. Most patients find the process straightforward with minimal disruption and they have a quick return to normal daily activities.

When Should You See an Endodontist?

Not all dental problems present with immediate or severe pain, but underlying issues can
still be developing.

Expertise Dental Digital Design Clinic
I was referred to this Endodontic Group through my primary dentist and I give this group a 5 star. They are very up front on their fees and they check with your dental insurance and they have no hidden fees. If you need a root canal make an appointment with them for a consultation and you will be glad you did because they are very reasonable and very nice. Thank you Dr Nudera and Dr Kim.

Expertise Dental Digital Design Clinic
When I asked my primary dentist who the most gentle and knowledgeable endodontist was, he immediately recommended Dr. Nudera and he was absolutely right. Dr. Nudera is incredibly talented and performed every procedure with precision and care, explaining each step along the way. He takes the time to listen, discuss options, and truly focuses on preserving your natural teeth. The staff is equally amazing, welcoming, helpful, and attentive throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Nudera to anyone, even if you have to travel—it’s worth it.

The dentists here are top notch!! I would not hesitant to have any of my family or friends to be treated by them. They are experts in the field and teach other dentists how to excel at doing root canals. They treat every patient like they are family and deliver outstanding care. Consider yourself lucky if you have to get a root canal by Dr. Nudera
