Root canal therapy, also known as root canal treatment, falls under the umbrella of endodontic therapy and is frequently prescribed when a tooth’s pulp and nerves suffer from infection or damage. This condition typically arises when an injury or decay penetrates deep into the tooth, breaching its outer enamel layer. If left unattended, this type of infection and disease may lead to tooth death, necessitating eventual tooth extraction. To sidestep this unfortunate outcome and restore the tooth’s health, our highly skilled dentist will delicately extract the infected and injured tissues from within the tooth, thoroughly cleanse it and fill it with a medicated material. Finally, the tooth will be capped with a dental crown or another appropriate restoration to regain its original shape and structural integrity. Remarkably, the entire root canal procedure is often completed in just one or two comfortable visits to our office.
Root canal therapy has unfortunately earned a reputation for causing substantial pain. Nevertheless, the reality is quite different, as advancements in techniques, tools and anesthesia have made it possible to perform root canals with minimal discomfort. Our dedicated dentist and team strive to ensure that every visit to our office is pleasant and comfortable. If you wish to know more about root canal treatment, feel free to reach out to us today. We are wholly committed to restoring your smile’s health and preserving the natural beauty of your teeth.
