Where Can I Find An Endodontist Near Me?
Are you experiencing pain when chewing? Or do you have persistent toothache? These symptoms could be a sign that your tooth is infected – contact Yorkshire Dental Suite for a consultation.
Endodontists are experts in the field of root canals. If your tooth is infected and deemed too complex of a case for a general dentist, you may be referred to an endodontist for your procedure instead.
If you are in need of a root canal specialist, then look no further than Yorkshire Dental Suite. Our friendly endodontist is highly experienced in the treatment of complex tooth infections, and will take the time to ensure you feel comfortable at all times.
What is an endodontist?
An endodontist is a dentist who has undergone additional training in root canals. They have a deep understanding of the procedure and are equipped with specialist tools to treat even the most complex cases.
This type of specialist will have completed an undergraduate degree in dentistry, followed by an additional 2 – 3 years of advanced training. They must also be registered with the GDC (General Dental Council).

Can I see an endodontist on the NHS?
It is possible to see an endodontist at an NHS clinic, but this is relatively rare. Routine root canal treatments are usually carried out by a general dentist. If your case is more complex, your dentist may refer you to a specialist for further assistance.
What are the downsides of going to the NHS? The waiting list for a root canal varies from 2 weeks to several months. Paired with limited appointment availability, you could be waiting a long time before sitting in the dentist’s chair.
Another downside is that NHS dentists do not have the same equipment as private practices due to limited funding. Complex cases are therefore not always viable, and you may be referred to a private dentist.
