Endodontics

About the Treatment

Endodontics is a dental specialty that deals with the roots and pulp of the teeth. When there is an infection or necrosis of the root or pulp, endodontic treatments, such as root canal or apical surgery, can help save the natural tooth.

The Massachusetts General Hospital Division of Dentistry maintains a full-scope endodontic service as part of its comprehensive, multi-specialty staff.

About the Division of Dentistry
