At Smile Health Dental, we’re always looking for ways to expand our expertise and offer even better care to our community in Nepean. That’s why we’re thrilled to celebrate an exciting milestone: Dr. Avneet Dhaliwal has successfully completed advanced endodontics training to support even more specialized treatments available at our clinic!

This achievement means more than just a certificate — it reflects Dr. Dhaliwal’s dedication to lifelong learning and her passion for providing our patients with the latest in dental care. Through this advanced training, she’s able to offer a broader range of endodontic procedures right here at Smile Health, making it easier for you and your family to receive comprehensive care close to home.

What Is Endodontics?

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry focused on treating the inside of the tooth — specifically, the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the roots. While many people associate endodontics primarily with root canals, it actually covers a range of procedures designed to help you save your natural teeth and relieve pain caused by an infection or an injury.

With Dr. Dhaliwal’s advanced training, she can now offer even more precise and effective endodontic treatment in Ottawa. This includes treatments for complex root canal cases, and ongoing management for dental trauma.

By investing in continuing education through respected organizations like ACE Courses and the Academy of General Dentistry, Dr. Dhaliwal is bringing world-class expertise to our local community.

Signs You Might Need Endodontic Treatment

Wondering if you need a root canal or other endodontic care? Here are some common symptoms that indicate a problem inside the tooth:

• Persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure
• Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the source is removed
• Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth
• Darkening of the tooth, which may signal internal damage
• Pimple-like bump on the gums, indicating possible infection

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Early treatment can save your natural tooth and prevent painful complications. You can book an emergency appointment with Dr. Dhaliwal and be seen ASAP!

Benefits of Saving Your Natural Tooth

Wouldn’t it be easier to just pull out the painful tooth? While extractions can sometimes be a solution to a dental problem there are a few important benefits to keeping your natural teeth:

• Natural function and appearance: Maintain your bite and smile.
• Efficient chewing: A restored natural tooth allows you to eat comfortably.
• Protects other teeth: Prevent neighbouring teeth from loosening or shifting.
• Cost-effective: Saving your tooth can be more economical in the long run. Smile restoration procedures like implants can be costly and time consuming.

Modern Advances Make Treatment Comfortable

Gone are the days when root canals were something to dread. With advanced endodontics Ottawa, Dr. Dhaliwal uses modern techniques and technology to ensure your treatment is efficient and comfortable:

• Digital imaging for precise diagnosis
• Enhanced anesthesia for a pain-free experience
• Microscopic tools for greater accuracy
• Minimally invasive procedures that promote faster healing
