Germantown, MD Endodontist
While turning to a dentist is something we should all do every six months for routine checkups and cleanings, where should you turn when dental problems occur? We’ll give you a clue. If you are in living in Germantown, MD, and you suddenly find yourself dealing with a dental infection, toothache, or other tooth-related problem, you may want to schedule a visit with our endodontist Dr. Amir Sarkarzadeh. Dr. Sarkarzadeh has been practicing for over 13 years and specializes in Endodontics.
What is an Endodontist?
An endodontist is a dental professional who specializes in procedures and treatments that support the health of your teeth when oral problems arise. Endodontists deal specifically with the inner workings of a tooth and they are the specialists you should be turning to when dental pain occurs or when your dentists have told you that you need root canal treatment. Since certain dental issues can be rather complex, your general dentist may refer you to our endodontic team for diagnosis and treatment.
Endodontist vs. Dentist
You may be wondering how endodontists are different from regular dentists. While dentists are trained to understand how teeth function, certain diseases and conditions that impact the health and function of your teeth and gums require expert care. This is why you should turn to our endodontic team. After all, our Germantown endodontist Dr. Sarkarzadeh has undergone several years of additional dental training beyond what general dentists have to undergo. This allows our team to provide in-depth, tailored, and expert endodontic care to our patients.
Why You Should See an Endodontist
If
your teeth and gums have been evaluated by your general dentist and
everything looks healthy then you may not need to turn to an
endodontist; however, if you are dealing with an infected tooth or
damaged dental pulp, our business is saving teeth! We perform
thousands of root canals a year, helping to preserve natural teeth
that would otherwise need to be extracted. We offer better long-term
outcomes for the health of your smile through our tooth-saving
endodontic offerings.
