If you have a painful tooth infection, we offer root canal therapy to get your smile back to optimal health.
Gentle Treatment
Save Your Natural Tooth
Sedation Available
Tooth infections are painful. Root canal therapy will get you back to smiling comfortably.
We focus on getting you back to optimal health while considering the appearance of your smile.
Our sedation options will ensure that you remain calm and comfortable throughout your entire procedure.
To begin the treatment, one of our dentists will numb and disinfect your mouth. Next, a small hole will be made in your tooth and the infected pulp will be removed through it. The empty space will be filled to support your tooth’s structure, and it will be capped with a dental crown to protect it from further harm.
Getting treatment for an infected tooth as soon as possible will help ensure the best outcome for your smile and your dental health. The benefits of root canal therapy include pain relief and the ability to save your natural tooth.
A tooth infection can be the result of an untreated cavity or an oral injury. When the outer layers of your tooth are weakened by a cavity or cracked in an accident, the inner pulp is exposed to oral bacteria. If bacteria get inside your tooth, this can lead to painful infection and a root canal is the best way to treat the issue. During a root canal, our dentists will remove damaged tooth material, replace it with an inert substance, and restore the tooth with a crown.
The cost of your root canal treatment will depend on a number of factors, including which tooth is infected and how badly. During your consultation, one of our dentists will give you an accurate estimate and go over all of your payment and financing options.
If your tooth has become infected, root canal therapy is the best way to restore your smile. During your appointment, one of our dentists will examine your damaged tooth to determine whether it is infected and develop a treatment plan based on your specific needs.
Signs that you may need a root canal include sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, grayish discoloration of your tooth, and a persistent toothache.
