Explore our treatments at Carson City Endodontics that address tooth pain, infection, and damage with focused, specialized care.
Why See an Endodontist
When a tooth needs more than routine care, specialized treatments help manage deeper issues and support long-term tooth health.
Endodontists receive advanced training to diagnose and treat these deeper issues with a high level of precision, helping relieve pain and preserve your natural tooth whenever possible.
At Carson City Endodontics, our endodontist, Dr. Chris Lingard, invests in modern technology, including surgical microscopes, 3D X-ray, and digital X-rays. It allows us greater visibility and accuracy during treatment, and a more efficient and comfortable visit for you.
With focused training, our endodontist can perform procedures such as root canal therapy, endodontic retreatment, endodontic microsurgery, and endodontic trauma treatment, like a cracked tooth or resorption.
Explore the full range of our endodontic services in Carson City.
Root Canal Treatment
When the innermost layer of your tooth (the pulp) becomes infected, inflamed, or exposed by trauma or decay, it can cause significant pain. Root canal treatment removes the infection and helps save your natural tooth.
Apicoectomy Surgery
If infection remains after a root canal, this microsurgical procedure may be recommended. Using magnification and precise techniques, we remove the infection from the tip of the root, helping relieve discomfort, support healing, and save your natural tooth.
Endodontic Retreatment
In some cases, a tooth that has had a root canal may not heal as expected. Retreatment lets us clean the inside of the tooth again, remove any lingering issues, and give it a second chance to heal properly and comfortably.
Cracked Teeth Treatment
A crack in your tooth can let bacteria reach the inside, where the nerve and blood supply are located, causing sharp pain when biting or sensitivity to hot and cold. With the right care, we can treat the problem from within and help preserve your natural tooth.
Dental Trauma
Whether from a fall, accident, or sports injury, dental trauma can affect the inside of your tooth even if it looks fine on the outside. Prompt care helps protect the tooth, manage pain, reduce complications, and support proper healing.
