Endodontics is a specialty of dentistry recognized by the American Dental Association and deals with issues of the tooth pulp and roots. Dr. Lee trained extensively in endodontic procedures in Korea before he moved to the US. His three years of special endodontic training have given him the skills and experience to perform root canal treatment to effectively save teeth and alleviate discomfort brought on by infected or damaged tooth pulp.
Dr. Lee performs root canal treatment, which is the most common endodontic procedure. Also called root canal therapy, this procedure is performed when decay or tooth trauma exposes the tooth pulp, making it more vulnerable to infection. If not treated, this infection can spread to the gums, jawbone, and even the rest of the body, which can result in tooth loss and jawbone damage. Your comfort is his top priority, and Dr. Lee will do everything in his power to alleviate the infection, save your tooth, and make sure you feel at ease during the procedure.
