Root canal therapy is a dental procedure designed to alleviate excruciating tooth pain caused by infection or damage to the tooth’s pulp. The pulp, comprised of nerves and blood vessels, can become inflamed or infected from decay or traumatic injury.
The Procedure Unveiled
Our dentists will carefully remove the infected pulp, clean the canal and fill in the tooth to prevent further infection. Modern advancements in technology and anesthesia ensure a comfortable experience, allowing patients to bid farewell to the throbbing pain that led them to seek help.
Preserving Your Natural Smile
Some may worry about losing their tooth post-root canal, but the procedure is intended to save your tooth. Following the treatment, a crown is typically placed over it, restoring its strength and appearance. This not only eliminates pain but also maintains the natural aesthetics of your smile.
The Importance of Timely Action
Prompt action is crucial when symptoms like persistent toothache, swelling or sensitivity to hot or cold arise. Ignoring these signs may lead to severe consequences, such as abscess formation or the need for tooth extraction.
