Understanding the treatment
Endodontics, from the Greek “endo” meaning “inside”, concerns the tissues and roots inside a tooth and the diseases affecting them.
Endodontic surgery can treat an infection beneath a crown without replacing the crown. It can save the patient time and cost and can generally be performed in one appointment.
Endodontics is an important branch of dentistry focusing on the inside of teeth, their tissues and roots. At Dr Nicolas Elazem’s practice, it treats internal problems that may be invisible but can cause severe pain and wider health issues.

Why endodontics matters
Endodontics helps preserve natural teeth. Advanced techniques allow Dr Elazem to treat internal infections and damage effectively, avoiding extraction and maintaining your teeth and smile.
Benefits of endodontic surgery
Endodontic surgery offered by Dr Elazem can treat an infection beneath a crown without replacing it. This can reduce cost and treatment time. Often, one appointment is enough, limiting discomfort and disruption to everyday life.
The endodontic procedure
Commonly known as root canal treatment, this procedure is carried out with precision at Dr Elazem’s practice. It is often needed when the pulp, containing the tooth’s nerves and blood vessels, is infected or damaged.
A more comfortable patient experience
We understand that root canal treatment can make patients anxious. We aim to make it as comfortable and pain-free as possible, using modern pain management and clear explanations at each stage.
Lasting results and aftercare
After root canal treatment, the tooth is often restored with a crown or filling to preserve function and appearance. We use quality materials for durable, natural-looking restorations and provide thorough aftercare advice to support long-term oral health.
Endodontics is an essential part of modern dentistry and an area of Dr Nicolas Elazem’s expertise. Our practice combines clinical skills, advanced techniques and attention to your comfort and dental health.
