Endodontic Associates at Hanson Place, PC

Endodontic Associates at Hanson Place, PC is a dental practice on Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights, New York, focused on endodontics — the area of dentistry that treats the soft tissue, or pulp, inside the tooth.

Endodontic care centers on saving natural teeth that have become infected, inflamed, or damaged deep inside. The best-known endodontic procedure is root canal treatment, which removes the infected or inflamed pulp from inside a tooth, cleans and disinfects the inner canals, and seals the tooth so it can be kept rather than extracted. Treatment of this kind relieves the pain that comes with an infected tooth and allows the natural tooth to remain in place, supported afterward by a filling or crown placed by the patient’s general dentist.

Because endodontics is a focused field, a practice dedicated to it concentrates on diagnosing tooth pain accurately and carrying out root canal and related treatment as its primary work, often handling cases referred by general dentists. Keeping a natural tooth, where it is realistic to do so, is generally preferable to removing it, and endodontic treatment is what makes that possible for many teeth.

The Montague Street location is in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, convenient to Downtown Brooklyn and reachable by several nearby subway lines. You can review the practice’s services and contact details on this page and reach the office directly to ask a question or arrange treatment.
