Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, is a highly effective procedure aimed at saving a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged. Our skilled team provides gentle and efficient root canal therapy to restore oral health and preserve natural smiles.

What are the Signs You May Need a Root Canal?

Several signs may indicate the need for root canal therapy, including:

  • Persistent or severe toothache, especially when chewing or applying pressure
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures that lingers even after the stimuli have been removed
  • Swelling, tenderness, or a bump on the gums near the affected tooth
  • Discoloration or darkening of the tooth
  • Prolonged sensitivity to touch or pressure

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, seek prompt dental care to prevent the infection from spreading and causing further damage.

Our Advanced Root Canal Procedure

Our root canal procedure is performed with precision and care to ensure optimal results and patient comfort. Before beginning the procedure, our dentist will thoroughly numb the affected area with local anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable throughout the treatment. For patients who may experience anxiety or discomfort during dental procedures, we also offer sedation options to help you relax and feel at ease.

During the root canal procedure, the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed, and the root canal system is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. Once the root canal therapy is complete, a dental crown may be placed over the tooth to restore its strength, function, and appearance.

Aftercare Instructions

Following root canal therapy, it's essential to follow our aftercare instructions carefully to promote healing and prevent complications. You may experience some mild discomfort or sensitivity in the days following the procedure, which can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it has been fully restored with a dental crown, and maintain good oral hygiene practices to keep the area clean and free from infection.
