Expert Care to Relieve Pain and Save Your Natural Teeth

At Midtown Endodontist NYC, we offer advanced endodontic procedures in NYC designed to protect and restore your natural teeth. Whether you require urgent treatment for severe tooth pain or a complex surgical procedure, we utilize the latest techniques and technology to ensure a comfortable and successful outcome.

What Is an Endodontist?

An endodontist is a dentist with two or more years of additional specialty training focused exclusively on diagnosing and treating problems inside the tooth and at the root. While general dentists provide a wide range of services, endodontists:

• Perform root canals and related surgeries every day
• Treat complex or emergency cases referred by other dentists
• Use specialized equipment, such as dental microscopes or diagnostic pulp testers, for greater precision

If you have tooth pain, infection, or an injury affecting the tooth root, an endodontist has the skills and technology to save your tooth when possible.

When Should You See an Endodontist?

You may need specialized endodontic care if you have:

• Severe tooth pain, especially when chewing or touching the tooth
• Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
• Swelling or tenderness in the gums
• A cracked or injured tooth
• A failed or painful previous root canal
• If your general dentist has referred you to an endodontist for specialized evaluation or treatment

Endodontic Procedures at Midtown Endodontist NYC

We offer a comprehensive range of advanced endodontic procedures in NYC, each tailored to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the dental pulp and root structures. Our treatments are aimed at preserving the natural tooth, alleviating pain, and restoring function and integrity to compromised teeth.

Root Canal Treatment

Removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside your tooth, cleans and shapes the canals, and seals them to prevent reinfection. Often completed in a single visit using microscopic precision for the best results.

Root Canal Retreatment

If a tooth with a previous root canal becomes painful or reinfected, retreatment can correct the problem and avoid extraction.

Calcified Root Canal Treatment

Special care for teeth where the canals have narrowed or hardened over time, requiring advanced tools and techniques to treat successfully.

Apicoectomy (Root-End Surgery)

A minor surgical procedure to remove the tip of the tooth root and seal it, often used when a standard root canal alone can’t resolve the problem.

Cracked Tooth Treatment

Diagnosing and treating cracks early helps prevent further damage and tooth loss. [2] Treatments may include bonding, crowns, or root canal therapy, depending on the severity.

Traumatic Tooth Injuries

Specialized treatment for teeth that are chipped, fractured, or knocked out due to accidents or sports injuries, with the goal of saving the natural tooth whenever possible. [3, 6]

Emergency Endodontic Care

We offer same-day appointments for severe tooth pain, swelling, or infection. Prompt treatment can stop discomfort and prevent the need for more invasive procedures.

Sedation for Comfortable Care

We understand that dental treatment, especially root canals or oral surgery, can make some patients anxious. That’s why we offer sedation to help you relax during your visit. From gentle oral sedation to local anesthesia, we’ll work with you to choose the option that keeps you comfortable and stress-free during your procedure.

Digital X-Rays for Precise Imaging and Diagnoses

We use advanced digital X-ray technology to take clear, detailed images of your teeth and the surrounding areas in just seconds. [9] This allows us to spot problems such as cracks, infections, or hidden issues that might not be visible during a regular exam. Digital X-rays also use much less radiation than traditional film, making them a safer option for patients. Because the images appear instantly on our screens, we can review them together and explain your treatment options right away.
