Understanding Apexogenesis

Apexogenesis is a dental procedure that encourages the continued development and maturation of the roots of a tooth’s pulp that has been exposed due to injury or decay. This treatment is primarily used for young patients whose teeth are still growing. Our experienced Valencia dentists facilitate natural healing and root development by applying medicated materials, ensuring the tooth remains vital and functional.
