Did you know?
Saving the natural tooth with root canal treatment has many advantages:
➡️Efficient chewing
➡️Normal biting force and sensation
➡️Natural appearance
➡️Protects other teeth from excessive wear or strain
Dental care is ESSENTIAL! Please read below about the safety of your dental visit during Covid-19:
“You may have had concerns that going in for your bi-annual dental checkup or tending to that cavity was a risk in the era of COVID-19. New research proves that’s just not the case.
Fewer than 1 percent of dentists nationwide were found to be COVID-19 positive, according to a first-of-its-kind report in the U.S. based on data collected in June 2020. The result is far below that of other health professionals in the U.S. In addition, 99 percent of dentists are using enhanced infection control procedures such as screening protocols and enhanced disinfection practices when treating patients. The report, published online ahead of print by The Journal of the American Dental Association, is the first large-scale collection and publication of U.S. dentists’ infection rates and infection control practices related to COVID-19.”

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Park Ridge Endodontics! We would love to hear what you are grateful for on this special holiday!

Have you scheduled your dental visit before 2021?
Here’s why we encourage you to do so, if you haven’t ...
If you have unused benefits, these will not roll over, so you should utilize all of the benefits while they are still active. We would hate to see those go to waste!
Also, by delaying dental treatment, you could risk saving your tooth! When dental issues are ignored, they can become much worse than the initial issue! Save yourself the trouble and the money!
We are here to take care of you and your needs!
Today we celebrate Giving Tuesday! It’s a great reminder to give back ... whether it’s to a school that got your where you are or a foundation that you believe in! Any amount can make an impact!
#givingtuesday
Be sure to take advantage of unused benefits!
Here are some tips on maintaining good oral health during Covid-19!
Dr. Fitzgerald said you can count on “Polar Express” for his family’s favorite Christmas movie! We would love to know yours! Comment below!
Merry Christmas from Dr. Fitzgerald and all of the Park Ridge Endodontics staff!

Root Canal Treatment Step by Step
What is endodontic treatment?
“Endo” is the Greek word for “inside” and “odont” is Greek for “tooth.” Endodontic treatment involves the inside of your tooth. Inside your tooth, under the white enamel and a hard layer called the dentin, is a soft tissue called pulp. It contains blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue, and creates the surrounding hard tissues of the tooth during its development.
The pulp extends from the crown of your tooth to the tip of the roots, where it connects to the tissues surrounding the root. It’s vitally important to your tooth’s growth and development, however, once your tooth is fully mature it can survive without the pulp; your tooth continues to be nourished by the tissues surrounding it.

In celebration of National Dentist’s Day this past weekend, we wanted to ask Dr. Fitzgerald what his favorite thing is about being in this field! Here’s his response ...
“My favorite thing is being able to exceed patient expectations. They regularly think they will experience pain during treatment. Their response to a painless procedure is very rewarding!” ❤️
#painfreerootcanal #nationaldentistsday #endodontist
Fun Fact Friday!
“According to a 2010 study conducted by Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics, the dryness experienced at a high elevation as well as low pressure reduces the sensitivity of a person’s taste buds to sweet and salty foods by about 30 percent. Add that dry cabin air affects our ability to smell, and our ability to taste is reduced further.”
