Endodontics

Saving Your Natural Teeth

Root canal therapy saves infected or damaged teeth by removing diseased pulp and sealing the tooth. Despite its reputation, modern techniques make this procedure comfortable and effective.

When You Need a Root Canal

Signs that may indicate need for endodontic treatment:

  • Severe toothache that doesn't go away
  • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Tooth discoloration
  • Swelling or tenderness in nearby gums
  • Persistent or recurring pimple on the gums

The Root Canal Process

We use advanced technology and gentle techniques:

  1. Anesthesia: The tooth area is numbed completely
  2. Access: A small opening is created in the tooth
  3. Cleaning: Infected pulp is carefully removed
  4. Shaping: Root canals are cleaned and shaped
  5. Filling: Canals are filled with biocompatible material
  6. Sealing: Tooth is sealed with a filling

After Your Root Canal

Most patients experience minimal discomfort after treatment. A crown is usually recommended to protect and strengthen the treated tooth.
