An endodontist is a specialist in the area of soft tissue inside the tooth. Endodontists, who perform only root canals treatments and typically deal with endodontic-related problems.
A common misconception is that a root canal is a painful procedure. Actually, root canals are similar to having a cavity filled, producing minimal pain.
Common causes for the need of endodontic treatment:
Inflamed/infected tooth pulp
Severe sensitivity to hot and cold elements
Tooth decay
Chipped or broken tooth
Swelling or tenderness near the infected tooth
Repeated dental procedures on a tooth
