What is Root Canal Therapy?

Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, is a proven procedure designed to treat infections or inflammation within the pulp of a tooth. When left untreated, such issues can lead to severe pain, abscesses, and potential tooth loss. By removing the infected tissue, cleaning the root canal system, and sealing the tooth, we can eliminate discomfort and preserve your natural smile.

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

  • Pain Relief: Eliminates discomfort caused by infected or inflamed pulp.
  • Tooth Preservation: Saves your natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction.
  • Improved Oral Health: Prevents the spread of infection to surrounding teeth and gums.
  • Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.

Signs You May Need Root Canal Therapy

Be proactive about your oral health by recognizing these common symptoms:

  • Persistent toothache or sensitivity to hot/cold temperatures.
  • Swollen gums or a pimple-like bump on the gum near the affected tooth.
  • Darkening or discoloration of a tooth.
  • Prolonged pain when chewing or applying pressure.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t delay—contact us today to schedule a consultation.

The Root Canal Therapy Process

  • Diagnosis: We begin with a thorough examination and diagnostic imaging to assess the extent of the damage.
  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the procedure.
  • Treatment: The infected pulp is carefully removed, and the canal is cleaned and disinfected.
  • Sealing: The tooth is sealed with a biocompatible material to prevent future infection.
  • Restoration: In most cases, your dentist will place a dental crown after the procedure, to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.
