Dr. Terry Isom, past president of the Clackamas County Dental Society, has served as an endodontist in Portland, Oregon, at his own practice since 2009. In this role, Dr. Terry Isom provides patients with a variety of services and procedures, including root canals.
There are a number of positive benefits to receiving a root canal procedure. Thanks to the advances of modern dentistry, teeth are able to survive after losing their pulp to infection by relying on the tissue of surrounding teeth. The development of the root canal procedure has resulted in millions of infected teeth being saved every year. In most cases, endodontic treatments are painless and can be completed in as few as one or two visits to an endodontist.
After saving and restoring a healthy tooth, patients will be able to resume all normal activities. Any person experiencing tooth pain should contact a respected endodontist and inquire about the possibility of a root canal procedure.
