Do Endodontists Extract Teeth?
An endodontist specializes in problems in the pulp area or root of your teeth. They are specialists, and patients may be referred to an endodontist to treat pain or issues inside your tooth. Endodontists receive two additional years of training beyond dental school. If you have damaged or cracked teeth, an endodontist can save your teeth and rid you of pain.
If you have prolonged pain or may have had an injury to a tooth, an endodontist can help. Our doctor’s priority is to always save your tooth, but if needed an endodontist can extract a tooth. If your tooth requires extraction, our doctors will discuss tooth replacement options, and develop a customized treatment plan that works for you.
