An endodontist is a dentist who specializes in root canal treatment. Root canal or endodontic treatment is a procedure that removes damaged tissue from inside the root canals of a tooth. As a specialist, endodontists limit their practice to endodontic procedures.
The Department of Endodontics supports the UF College of Dentistry mission by enhancing oral health through acquisition, dissemination and use of endodontic evidence-based knowledge as part of the college’s mission of education, research and patient care.
