Saving Natural Teeth, Preserving Smiles
At Affinity Dental Clinics, we believe that every tooth matters. Behind every tooth is a story, a memory, a smile worth preserving. That’s why one of the most important services we offer in the Philippines is Endodontics—the branch of dentistry focused on saving teeth that would otherwise be lost due to infection or trauma.
Whether it’s a persistent toothache, a cracked tooth, or a deep cavity, endodontic treatment allows us to treat the inside of the tooth, stop the pain, eliminate infection, and help you keep your natural tooth structure for as long as possible.
What Is Endodontics?
Endodontics comes from the Greek words endo (inside) and odont (tooth). It deals with the health of the dental pulp—the living tissue inside the tooth made up of nerves and blood vessels.
When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to decay, repeated procedures, cracks, or trauma, endodontic treatment—most commonly a Root Canal Treatment—is required to save the tooth.
The goal of endodontic care is simple: Remove the infection, relieve the pain, and preserve the natural tooth.
Why Saving Teeth Matters
There is no substitute for a natural tooth. While modern prosthodontics offers impressive replacements like crowns, bridges, and implants, nothing matches the structure, feel, and function of your own teeth.
Endodontic treatment:
• Maintains jawbone integrity (avoiding bone loss)
• Prevents shifting of nearby teeth
• Saves you from more extensive and expensive treatments later on
At Affinity Dental Clinics, saving your tooth is always our first priority—and Endodontics gives us the tools to do just that.
Our Endodontic Services
We offer a full range of endodontic procedures across our branches in Makati, BGC, Alabang, Ortigas, Parañaque, and Cebu, all performed with the utmost care, precision, and comfort.
1. Remove the infected or inflamed pulp
2. Clean and disinfect the root canals
3. Fill and seal the space with a biocompatible material
4. Restore the tooth with a crown for protection
With modern anesthesia, digital imaging, and high-quality instruments, root canal treatment today is safe, effective, and virtually painless—a far cry from the reputation it had decades ago.
✅ Apicoectomy (Root-End Surgery)
This is typically done only when necessary, and always after thorough assessment by our dental team.
Advanced Technology, Gentle Approach
At Affinity Dental Clinics, our approach to Endodontics is a blend of clinical expertise and compassionate care.
We are equipped with state-of-the-art technology such as:
• Gums that bleed during brushing or flossing
• Digital X-rays for low-radiation, high-resolution imaging
• Cone Beam CT Scans for 3D visualization of complex root anatomy
• Electric rotary endodontic files for precise canal cleaning
• High magnification loupes for enhanced visibility
These tools allow us to perform endodontic procedures more safely, quickly, and accurately, which means less chair time and faster recovery for you.
Endodontics as a Foundation for Restorative Dentistry
Endodontics is not a stand-alone service—it’s a critical foundation for many restorative procedures.
A tooth that has undergone a root canal often needs a dental crown to protect and restore function. In fact, our seamless integration between endodontic and prosthodontic services is one of our strengths at Affinity Dental Clinics.
Thanks to our in-house dental laboratory, we can fabricate high-quality crowns quickly and accurately—often using materials like Zirconia for superior strength and esthetics.
Personalized Care, Consistent Results
No two root canals are exactly the same. That’s why at Affinity Dental Clinics, we treat each case with individualized attention.
From your first consultation to your final follow-up, we guide you through:
• Reviewing all treatment options
• Explaining what to expect before, during, and after your procedure
• Providing aftercare tips for long-term success
We believe in open communication, gentle hands, and precision-driven results.
