Endodontics Q&A

Endodontics focuses on diagnosing and treating problems that affect the inner layers of your teeth—specifically the pulp and surrounding tissues. Every tooth has a core made of soft tissue called pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this tissue becomes infected or inflamed due to injury or decay, endodontic treatment helps relieve pain while saving the tooth.

You might need endodontic care if you’ve experienced:

  • Deep cavities or untreated decay
  • A cracked, broken, or injured tooth
  • Swelling around a tooth or gum area
  • An abscess or pus formation near the root

Our skilled dental professionals at Maple Dental NJ use modern techniques and gentle care to address these issues effectively, helping you restore comfort and functionality.

At Maple Dental NJ, we provide a full range of endodontic procedures to treat dental pulp problems and preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. Our services include:

  • Root Canal Therapy – Removes infected pulp and seals the tooth to stop pain and prevent further damage.
  • Retreatment of Root Canals – Addresses persistent infection in a previously treated tooth.
  • Apicoectomy – A surgical solution to treat infection at the root tip when a standard root canal is not enough.
  • Tooth Removal – Surgical or simple extraction when the tooth cannot be saved.
  • Implants – Replacement of missing or unsalvageable teeth with long-lasting implant solutions.

All procedures are performed in a clean, calm environment, using digital diagnostics and local anesthesia to keep you comfortable.

Not all toothaches go away on their own—and sometimes, waiting can lead to serious complications. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, it may be time to seek endodontic care near you at Maple Dental NJ:

  • Sharp or persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers after the temperature changes
  • Discoloration of the tooth or swelling in the nearby gums
  • Recurring bumps or pimples on the gums, which may indicate infection
  • Jaw tenderness or radiating pain in nearby teeth

Ignoring these signs could lead to tooth loss or spread of infection. If you live in Belleville, Nutley, Kearny, or Newark (07104 & 07106) and suspect an inner tooth problem, we encourage you to schedule an appointment today.
