Advanced Root and Pulp Care for Lasting Tooth Preservation

When tooth pain strikes deep or lingers too long, endodontic care may be the solution to save your natural tooth and relieve discomfort. At Orange Blossom Dentistry, we provide comprehensive endodontics in Orange Park, including advanced diagnostic tools and gentle treatment methods to restore oral health from the inside out.

Patients from Fleming Island, Middleburg, and nearby areas turn to our team for effective, comfortable solutions to tooth infections, damage, and internal decay.

What Is Endodontics?

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry focused on the internal structure of the tooth—specifically the pulp, roots, and surrounding tissues. When infection or inflammation affects these inner layers, professional care is needed to:

• Eliminate infection
• Preserve the natural tooth
• Prevent the spread of bacteria
• Relieve pain and pressure

At Orange Blossom Dentistry, endodontic treatment often includes root canal therapy but may also involve retreatment or surgical procedures depending on the complexity of your case.

Our experienced team uses modern technology like digital radiographs to accurately diagnose the issue and create a custom plan for lasting results.

Signs You May Need Endodontic Treatment

Prompt evaluation is key to preventing further complications. You may benefit from endodontic care if you experience:

• Persistent or severe tooth pain
• Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
• Swelling or tenderness in the gums
• Darkening of the tooth
• A visible crack or injury to the tooth

These symptoms may point to a damaged or infected pulp, often caused by decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures.

If you're unsure whether you need endodontics, we offer emergency dental care for urgent situations and fast pain relief.

Endodontic Services We Offer

At Orange Blossom Dentistry, our endodontic care is built around precision, comfort, and prevention. Services include:

1. Root Canal Therapy
   Removes infected pulp, cleans the canal system, and seals the tooth to protect it from future issues. This procedure is often the best way to save a natural tooth and eliminate pain.
2. Root Canal Retreatment
   If a previous root canal did not heal properly, we can revisit the tooth to resolve the issue and restore its function.
3. Apexification or Apicoectomy
   In cases where conventional root canals are not sufficient, we may perform advanced procedures to close the tip of the root and support healing.
4. Post and Core Support
   After a root canal, some teeth may need internal support. We can place a post and build up the core before restoring it with a dental crown for added strength.
