Endodontics and root canal treatment in Sofia
Root canal treatment is a sensible step when inflammation, deep decay or trauma threatens a natural tooth. Our aim is to explain clearly what is happening, address the cause and give the tooth a chance to remain stable and functional.
Why not postpone it?
When a problem reaches the nerve or root, waiting usually does not solve it. A timely plan can reduce the risk of more serious inflammation and loss of the natural tooth.
How does the process work?
1. Diagnosis
We clarify symptoms, tooth condition and options for preservation.
2. Treatment
We work through the root canals with focus on inflammation control and comfort.
3. Restoration
After treatment, we plan a filling, bonding or crown depending on healthy structure.
