Here at Newport Root Canal, the goal of saving natural teeth is a primary one. Even with all the tooth replacement options on the market today, there is still no substitute for the look and feel of one’s natural teeth. They help preserve the facial bone structure, chewing ability, and alignment of the smile. Permanent teeth were meant to last a lifetime, and it is our job to make sure they do.
Our team brings years of experience and advanced techniques to treating complex tooth and tooth root problems. We handle everything from root canals to dental emergencies. As endodontists, we use in-depth knowledge of tooth anatomy and function to help our patients preserve and maintain their original teeth. Also, the techniques we employ to save teeth are geared towards causing the patient the least amount of complications and discomfort as well.
We offer various endodontic treatments tailored to each patient’s unique mouth. Our qualified specialists curate individualized treatment plans, even for our referred patients. Building a strong relationship is of the utmost importance to us as it helps us create a treatment plan that fits their individual health needs.
