Root Canals
We provide expert root canal treatments designed to save and restore teeth that are severely damaged or infected. Our team of experienced dental professionals uses advanced techniques and technology to ensure a comfortable and effective root canal procedure.
What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infections or damage within the pulp of a tooth. The pulp is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, trauma, or repeated procedures, a root canal is often necessary to preserve the tooth and prevent further complications.
Our Root Canal Procedure:
Initial Examination: We begin with a thorough examination, including X-rays, to assess the extent of the infection or damage and determine the best approach for treatment.
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure.
Cleaning and Shaping: The dentist carefully removes the infected or damaged pulp from inside the tooth. The root canals are then cleaned, shaped, and disinfected to remove any bacteria and debris.
Filling and Sealing: After cleaning, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material to seal them and prevent future infections. The tooth is then sealed with a temporary or permanent filling.
Restoration: In many cases, a dental crown is placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength and function.
Benefits of Root Canals:
- Pain Relief: Alleviates the discomfort and pain caused by pulp infection.
- Tooth Preservation: Saves the natural tooth, which is preferable to extraction.
- Functionality: Restores normal chewing and speaking functions.
