Root canal therapy is a highly effective treatment designed to save teeth that have been severely damaged or infected. Under the expert care of our dentists and dedicated team, this procedure not only alleviates pain but also prevents the need for tooth extraction, preserving your natural tooth. Our approach focuses on removing the infected or inflamed pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inner chamber and then filling and sealing the tooth to restore its function and appearance.
Root canal therapy is crucial for addressing:
- Deep decay or damage that has reached the tooth’s pulp
- Severe pain or sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures
- Swelling and tenderness in the gums surrounding the affected tooth
- Discoloration or darkening of the tooth
During the procedure, we prioritize your comfort and well-being, ensuring the process is as pain-free and straightforward as possible. With advancements in dental techniques and anesthesia, patients typically experience minimal discomfort and a quick recovery.
The benefits of root canal therapy include:
- Immediate relief from pain and discomfort
- Saving your natural tooth and avoiding extraction
- Stopping the spread of infection to surrounding teeth
- Restoring normal tooth function and bite
- Preserving the aesthetic of your smile
