Endodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human dental pulp and peri-radicular tissues.
The study and practice of endodontics includes the bilology of the normal pulp and peri-radicular tissues and the etiology, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases and injuries that affect the tissues.
Endodontists perform a range of routine and complex procedures, including surgery if required. They’re also experts at diagnosing and treating the origin of oral and facial pain.
