Advanced, gentle specialty care that is taking the fear out of the root canal process
As you search for an “endodontic office near me in Snellville, Georgia,” Dr. Darlene Davis welcomes you to Soft Touch Endodontics! Our team also welcomes the opportunity to share what distinguishes us from other dentists and from other endodontic specialty practices in Suwanee and beyond.
Why is it important to choose an endodontist?
While other dentists can perform root canal treatment, fewer than 3% of all dentists are trained and qualified to be endodontists. Dr. Davis has advanced and considerable training and experience in endodontic procedures affecting the innermost parts of the teeth. The American Association of Endodontists reports that endodontists like Dr. Davis perform an average of 25 root canal treatments each week, while dentists might perform two such procedures weekly. As a patient, this experience and skill support the best results, and the most comfortable and safe treatment. We also use advanced technologies to detect problems accurately and to perform procedures precisely.
Do you only perform root canal treatments?
No. Our array of endodontic capabilities is also what separates us as specialists from other dental practices. In part, other dentists often refer their patients to us for root canal retreatment. Or, patients may turn to us for a second opinion. Perhaps, they’ve been told that damage to their tooth is so severe that it can’t be preserved. We have treatments beyond nonsurgical root canal therapy to “save” badly damaged teeth. These treatments include surgical root-end resection or apicoectomy.
Why do the technologies you use matter?
We use state-of-the-art diagnostic, surgical, and laser technologies. Our ability to effectively treat you is only as good as our understanding of your needs. So, diagnostic technologies like low-radiation exposure digital X-rays and 3-D CBCT imaging help us to see hidden roots, cracks, and other issues that would be missed with traditional imaging. When these problems go missed at other offices, the tooth generally fails to heal, and the root canal treatment may not be successful. We can use these systems when planning treatments, such as root canal retreatment. Surgical microscopes are also particularly helpful during treatment, as they provide 25 times the magnification of internal structures. We can use them to find the likes of narrow canals, which support the long-term success of your root canal treatment or retreatment.
Why should I choose Soft Touch Endodontics?
We don’t simply call ourselves “soft touch.” Our Snellville, GA area team in Suwanee lives up to that name in all that we do. Dr. Davis prioritizes comfort and a fear-free experience. She surrounds herself with equally kind and passionate team members and has invested in only the best technologies for a fast, precise, and gentle experience. We are taking the fear out of the root canal process! Call (770) 831-7644 to schedule your visit and experience these differences for yourself.
