Save Your Natural Tooth and Eliminate Pain

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a procedure designed to save a tooth that has become severely infected or damaged due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or trauma. It involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the inner chambers, and then filling and sealing the tooth.

How Root Canal Treatment Works?

When the soft tissue (pulp) inside a tooth becomes infected, it can cause severe pain and lead to an abscess. During a root canal, the dentist carefully removes the infected pulp, thoroughly cleans and shapes the root canals, and then fills them with a biocompatible material. The tooth is then sealed, often with a crown, to protect it from further damage and restore its function. Modern techniques and anesthesia make the procedure comfortable and virtually pain-free.

Why Consider Root Canal Treatment?

Choosing root canal treatment means preserving your natural tooth, which is always the best option for maintaining proper chewing function and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting. It effectively eliminates pain and infection, allowing you to keep your smile intact without the need for extraction. Saving your natural tooth avoids the complexities and costs associated with tooth replacement options like implants or bridges. Root canal therapy is a highly successful procedure that can allow your treated tooth to last a lifetime.
