What Is Regenerative Endodontics?
Regenerative endodontics is an advanced dental procedure that focuses on repairing and regenerating damaged or infected tooth pulp. Unlike traditional root canal treatments, which remove the damaged pulp, regenerative endodontics aims to stimulate the natural healing process within the tooth by encouraging the growth of new tissue and blood vessels. This innovative treatment can restore the health and function of a tooth, preserving it for the long term. At Austin Center for Endodontics, Dr. Ketan Amin and Dr. Arif Karim utilize this technique to help patients retain their natural teeth and improve oral health.

How Is Regenerative Endodontics Performed?
Regenerative endodontics is performed through a carefully structured process designed to promote healing within the tooth. First, Dr. Amin or Dr. Karim will clean the affected tooth to remove any infection or damaged tissue. Next, the root canal is disinfected, and a special solution is placed to encourage the growth of new tissue and blood vessels. The goal is to stimulate the natural healing process, allowing the tooth to regenerate and restore its vitality. After the procedure, the tooth is monitored to ensure successful healing and continued health.
What Are the Benefits of Regenerative Endodontics?
Regenerative endodontics offers numerous benefits by helping to restore the natural health and function of damaged teeth, such as:
- Encouraging the growth of new, healthy pulp tissue and blood vessels
- Preserving the natural tooth structure and preventing the need for extraction
- Reducing the need for more invasive treatments, such as root canals
- Supporting long-term dental function and aesthetics
- Offering an innovative solution for teeth with immature roots or extensive damage
Austin Center for Endodontics Reviews
Fantastic experience. The communication with the office before my consultation and procedure was stellar. Upon my initial call, I was easily taken care of and scheduled by Patrick. My forms and any additional information was sent to me ahead of time. Check in was a breeze and the office was cozy and calm. Dr. Amin quickly assessed the problem area and explained the necessary root canal and the steps it would involve in an easy to understand manner. Dr. Amin and his assistant were professional, courteous, and very efficient. My consultation and treatment were complete in under an hour which I really appreciated as I was nervous for my first ever root canal. I really appreciate the care that is evident at this office and would definitely go back if ever needed. Thank y'all so much for your help!
Lovely doctor and staff who provide kind and compassionate care. Highly recommend!
Ketan Amin, DMD is the ONLY Endo I want to have work on my teeth! He is gentle, kind and thorough in explanation. His staff is also very kind and informative and sensitive to the pain that goes with needing a root canal. He and his assistant do everything to keep you as comfortable as possible during the procedure, and quick to answer any questions before and after. I was so relieved to be able to hold an appointment for a few days after I sensed a problem, awaiting a DDS to confirm. Dr. Amin has worked on 2 other teeth for root canals and I'm so grateful he was there for me again. Kudos to Austin Center for Endodontics.
Dr. Amin and staff were wonderful. I emailed them on the weekend and they called me on Monday morning with an appointment available immediately. I was so happy to have Dr. Amin help me with this tooth as he helped with 2 other teeth in 2015 and 2017. He is so gentle and a great dentist.
Went to my regular dentist for a semi annual appt and found one of my front teeth had gone dead and changed colors. They recommended Dr Amin. Called same day and got an appt for the next day to see Dr. Amin for consultation and treatment. Great customer service by his crew and great treatment by Dr. Amin. He came in and explained what probably happened to the tooth. Showed me again that it had no feeling to it and the root was dead. We went ahead with a root canal and we were all done in about 40 minutes! They were great!
