What does an endodontist do?
An endodontist is a dental specialist focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the tooth’s nerve (pulp), root canals, and surrounding tissues. The most common procedure is a root canal treatment, which helps save teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted. Endodontists also handle failed root canals, dental trauma, infections, and chronic dental pain.
In modern dentistry, endodontics plays a key role in preventing unnecessary tooth loss. With advanced tools, digital imaging, and rotary instruments, this specialty allows for the precise and minimally invasive preservation of natural teeth. It’s a field that blends technical expertise with a deep understanding of patient comfort and pain management.

Differential Approach
Dr. Daniela Lozano combines traditional endodontics with high-precision digital techniques such as rotary instrumentation, electronic apex location, and advanced disinfection systems. These tools allow her to treat the inner part of the tooth more effectively and with less discomfort for the patient. Her approach is conservative and focused on preserving natural teeth—even in cases that other professionals might consider non-viable.
She works under a minimally invasive philosophy, carefully protecting every part of the tooth and offering post-endodontic adhesive restorations that reinforce the tooth from within. Her sensitivity toward patients in pain helps create a calm and trusting environment. She explains every step of the treatment and adapts her protocols to the real needs of each person. Close support before, during, and after the procedure is a key part of her practice.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dr. Daniela Lozano – Endodontist in Medellín
What types of cases does Dr. Daniela Lozano treat?
Dr. Lozano specializes in root canal treatments, retreatments, dental abscesses, trauma cases, and chronic pain that other specialists have been unable to resolve. She also performs internal bleaching for teeth that have darkened due to past infections or previous procedures. Her experience allows her to act with precision and a conservative approach, always aiming to preserve the natural tooth.
What technology does she use in her treatments?
Is treatment with Dr. Daniela painful?
Can she treat a tooth that already had a root canal before?v
Yes. One of Dr. Daniela’s strengths is performing retreatments—intervening on teeth that previously had a root canal but now show signs of leakage, pain, or persistent infection. She evaluates each case using digital X-rays and clinical diagnostics to determine whether the tooth can still be saved.
What happens after the root canal treatment?
Once the treatment is completed, Dr. Daniela guides the patient on the best restoration for the tooth. In many cases, a resin-based restoration can be done the same day, or a more extensive rehabilitation may be scheduled if the tooth is weakened. Her goal is to ensure the tooth is functional and protected to avoid future fractures or leaks.
