Opening a new dental practice is about more than creating a new office. For us, opening Braselton Endodontics represents an opportunity to provide specialized, compassionate endodontic care to patients throughout northeast Georgia while becoming a trusted part of the community we serve.
Led by endodontist Dr. Julie Brann, DMD, Braselton Endodontics is located at 1235 Friendship Rd, Suite 115, in Braselton, Georgia. Our practice provides specialized treatment for patients experiencing tooth pain, infection, dental trauma, cracked teeth, and other conditions that may threaten the health of a natural tooth.
Our goal is simple: whenever possible, we want to help patients preserve their natural teeth while making the treatment experience as comfortable and positive as we can.
Dr. Julie Brann’s Personal Journey Into Dentistry
For Dr. Brann, dentistry became a career because of her own experience as a patient.
Growing up in Romeo, Michigan, Dr. Brann did not receive regular dental care as a child. When she turned 18, she decided to take control of her dental health. At that point, she discovered that years without consistent care had affected both her teeth and gums.
What could have been an intimidating experience instead became the inspiration for her future career. The compassionate dentist who helped restore Dr. Brann’s smile showed her the difference thoughtful, supportive dental care can make in a person’s life. That experience inspired her to pursue dentistry herself and has continued to influence the way she approaches patient care today.
Because Dr. Brann understands what it feels like to be the patient in the dental chair, we place a strong emphasis on making people feel heard, informed, and comfortable. Dental treatment can be stressful, especially when someone is already experiencing significant tooth pain. We believe compassion and clear communication are important parts of providing excellent endodontic care.
From General Dentistry to Specialized Endodontic Training
Dr. Brann’s education and clinical background give her a broad perspective on both general dental care and specialized endodontic treatment.
After earning her undergraduate degree from Oakland University, she attended Tufts University, where she earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree in 2015. She then completed a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency in Phoenix, Arizona. Following her residency, Dr. Brann spent six years practicing general dentistry.
Those years provided valuable experience treating a wide range of dental needs. They also helped deepen her interest in endodontics, the area of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating problems affecting the inside of a tooth. Dr. Brann eventually decided to pursue advanced specialty training and completed her endodontic residency at Albert Einstein Medical Center in 2024.
Her background in both general dentistry and endodontics allows her to understand dental concerns from several perspectives. Whether we are evaluating persistent tooth pain, determining whether root canal therapy may help preserve a tooth, or managing a previously treated tooth that has developed new problems, our focus is on identifying the source of the problem and recommending an appropriate path forward.
What Does an Endodontist Do?
Many patients first hear the word “endodontist” after their general dentist recommends that they see a specialist.
Endodontists receive advanced training in diagnosing and treating conditions involving the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the roots of teeth. The dental pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When this tissue becomes inflamed or infected because of deep decay, cracks, trauma, or other damage, specialized treatment may be necessary.
One of the most common procedures performed by an endodontist is root canal therapy. During root canal treatment, the damaged or infected tissue inside the tooth is removed. The internal space is then carefully cleaned, disinfected, and sealed. The goal is to address the source of infection or inflammation while allowing the natural tooth to remain in place.
Saving a natural tooth whenever possible can help patients maintain normal biting and chewing function while avoiding the need to replace an extracted tooth.
Advanced Technology for Precise Endodontic Care
Modern technology plays an important role in the way we diagnose and treat endodontic conditions. Dr. Brann has extensive experience using advanced dental technology, including dental lasers and cone beam computed tomography, commonly known as CBCT.
CBCT technology creates detailed three-dimensional images of the teeth, roots, jawbone, and surrounding structures. These images can provide information that may not be visible on traditional two-dimensional dental X-rays.
For endodontic treatment, having a detailed view of the tooth can be especially helpful when evaluating complex root anatomy, identifying possible causes of persistent symptoms, assessing dental trauma, or planning surgical treatment.
Our goal in using advanced technology is not simply to make treatment more modern. It is to gather the information we need to make informed decisions and perform treatment as precisely and efficiently as possible. We also emphasize minimally invasive approaches whenever appropriate. Preserving healthy tooth structure and maintaining the natural tooth are central goals of endodontic care.
Endodontic Services Available at Braselton Endodontics
Different dental problems require different approaches. At Braselton Endodontics, we provide several types of specialized treatment depending on the condition of the tooth and the needs of the patient.
Our endodontic services include:
- Root Canal Therapy: Treats inflammation or infection inside a tooth by removing damaged tissue, cleaning and disinfecting the internal space, and sealing the tooth.
- Endodontic Retreatment: Addresses new or recurring problems in a tooth that has previously received root canal treatment.
- Apicoectomy and Surgical Endodontics: Treats infection or inflammation near the tip of a tooth’s root when conventional root canal treatment alone may not resolve the problem.
- Cracked Tooth Diagnosis and Treatment: Evaluates tooth cracks that may cause pain while chewing, temperature sensitivity, or other intermittent symptoms.
- Dental Trauma Management: Assesses and treats teeth damaged by falls, sports injuries, accidents, or other forms of dental trauma.
- CBCT 3D Imaging: Provides detailed three-dimensional images of the teeth, roots, jawbone, and surrounding structures to support accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Our goal is to use the appropriate treatment and technology to relieve discomfort, address the underlying dental problem, and preserve the natural tooth whenever possible.
Providing Specialized Care Close to Home
Braselton and the surrounding communities continue to grow, and we are excited to provide dedicated endodontic services close to home for patients throughout northeast Georgia. Our practice serves patients from Braselton, Hoschton, Jefferson, and surrounding areas. Having access to a local endodontic specialist can make the process easier for patients who need advanced diagnostic care or treatment for a painful or damaged tooth.
We have designed Braselton Endodontics around a patient-centered experience from consultation through treatment. We understand that many people arrive at an endodontic office because they are already uncomfortable or concerned about what comes next. Our approach is to explain what we find, discuss treatment recommendations clearly, and help patients feel more confident about their care.
Dr. Brann’s personal dental experiences, years in general practice, specialty training, and commitment to advanced technology all contribute to the way we care for our patients.

Frequently Asked Questions About Endodontic Care
When should I see an endodontist?
You may be referred to an endodontist if you have persistent tooth pain, sensitivity, swelling, a cracked tooth, dental trauma, or a tooth that may require root canal treatment. An endodontist can evaluate the source of your symptoms and determine whether specialized treatment is appropriate.
What is root canal therapy?
Root canal therapy is used to treat inflammation or infection inside a tooth. During treatment, damaged tissue is removed, the internal portion of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and the space is sealed to help preserve the natural tooth.
Can a tooth need treatment again after a root canal?
Yes. Occasionally, a tooth that received root canal treatment in the past can develop new symptoms or infection. Endodontic retreatment may allow us to address the problem and provide another opportunity to preserve the tooth.
What is CBCT 3D imaging?
CBCT is an advanced imaging technology that creates detailed three-dimensional views of the teeth, roots, bone, and nearby structures. These images can help us diagnose complex endodontic conditions and plan treatment more precisely.
