    In their words

    Come to Dentistry with Smiles and meet Kelsey Ullsmith, DMD. Dentistry is no longer about having teeth fixed. It is about taking care of our bodies, maintaining or improving function, and presenting our most confident self. Dentistry is equal parts art, science and psychology. It encompasses education, prevention and care. Mostly though, dentistry is about building relationships and earning trust.

What is a root canal?

A root canal removes infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, then cleans, disinfects and seals the canals. It is done to save a natural tooth that would otherwise need to come out. Most back teeth need a crown afterward.

Root canal: specialist or general dentist?

Many general dentists perform root canals, especially on front teeth and premolars. Endodontists are root canal specialists with 2–3 extra years of training. They are often recommended for molars with curved or hidden canals, retreatments, and teeth with unusual anatomy.

None of Ferndale's 14 clinics offering root canals list an endodontist on staff in our data yet. See endodontists in Ferndale
