Meet the Dentist – Saidapet Sridhar, DDS

My dental career started with a Bachelors in Dental Surgery diploma in 1994. After being in private practices and hospital rotation in India, I moved to the U.S., and completed my DDS at NYU in 2001. I have been to many outreach programs in India and in the US. I was invited and presented seminars on esthetic dentistry from 2005-2010. I love playing golf and badminton and I’m a huge Yankees fan. I am blessed with a beautiful wife, daughter and son. I believe in good work ethics and to have a great passion in whatever you do, and it will show path to success.

What is Endodontic Treatment? 

Dr. Saidapet Sridhar, DSS is a dentist specializing in diagnosing and treating oral pain such as toothaches or cracked and fractured teeth, as well as dental traumatic injuries caused by a blow to the mouth for our patients in Suffern, NY. Endodontic treatment and root canal therapy focuses on saving your natural teeth through different dental procedures involving the root of the teeth, also known as the pulp.

Root Canal Therapy takes Two to Three Visits

A root canal is a relatively simple procedure with little or no discomfort involving one to three visits. Best of all, it can save your tooth and your smile. If the infected pulp is not removed by our restorative dentists in Suffern, NY, pain and swelling can result, and your tooth may have to be removed. Through routine care of your smile, your restored teeth can last a lifetime. Always be sure to get your regular scheduled cleanings, every six months. A tooth without its nerve can still develop cavities or gum disease.
