Endodontist Near Me
What is an endodontist?
Dental professionals who focus on treating complex dental problems
associated with the pulp and root of your tooth are known as
endodontists. The main difference between an endodontist and a dentist
is that an endodontist received extra training and specialization to
treat root-related damage and infection.
An endodontist will do all procedures done by a dentist but a dentist
will refer you to an endodontist for other procedures. Regular dentists
receive a 4-year training but endodontists go through 2 years of extra
training.
