My wife and I had check up, X-ray, cleaning, and one white filling and one amalgam filling.
The dentists were very friendly and gave us excellent attention. The dentists studied in USA, Syria & France. The price was less than half we would pay in USA.
We were very satisfied and recommend these dentists to anyone. David Boggs(USA)
I was very pleased with the treatment .I would recommend this clinic to everyone, because of their professionalism. I will return their next year for a complete check-u. J Ducrot, (France)

Root canal treatment (endodontic treatment) is
required when you have a tooth infection. When
you have an infection in your tooth, there is no
room in the canal space for extra antibodies or
white blood cells. When the tissue attempts to
swell, it chokes itself and dies, and then it
becomes a perpetual source of infection, called
a tooth abscess, spilling into the bone tissue
around the end of the tooth.
In endodontic treatment, the dentist removes
this dead or diseased tissue, cleans the inside
of the tooth thoroughly, and then places a
sealer material inside the tooth. It's important
that the tooth be filled to the very end of the
apex of the tooth.
This treatment is generally not difficult for
the patient, and pain after root canal is often
not a large issue, in spite of its reputation
Once your tooth is fully formed and has erupted,
the pulp tissue remains and performs a sensory
function. If your tooth becomes irritated, it is
the pulp tissue that senses this. Even a small
cavity can sometimes cause inflammation in the
pulp. The larger the cavity, the more the
irritation. You may have sensitivity to cold or
to air. It's a warning system that something is
wrong.
If the pulp tissue becomes infected, the
toothache can become severe and constant.
Problems with root canal treatments are caused
by the dentist's inability to either completely
clean out the inside of the tooth all the way to
the apex, because of obstructions or curves, or
an inability to completely seal the apex of the
tooth, thus allowing leaking of living material
into the tooth that can become a further source
of infection. If this happens, it is called a
failed root canal. A failure can be treated with
root canal surgery, or the tooth can be
extracted. An apicoectomy is the most common
surgery.
Endodontic treatment is more difficult with back
teeth than with front teeth. A root canal on a
front tooth is the simplest. A front tooth has
only one root, where back teeth can have up to
four. The root is generally straight, as opposed
to curved roots on back teeth.
