A root canal requires one or more office visits and can be performed by a dentist in our office. We can identify causes, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases and injuries of the human dental pulp or the nerve of the tooth instead of sending you to a different doctor.
Root Canal Symptoms
— Spontaneous pain or throbbing while biting
— Sensitivity to hot and cold foods
— Severe decay or an injury that creates an abscess (infection) in the bone
Root Canal Treatment Procedure
The tooth is first anesthetized and then a hole is made down into the pulp. Our dentists use tiny instruments to extract the remaining pulp from the tooth, thoroughly disinfecting the tooth canal in the process. Once disinfected, the interior of the tooth is filled with an inert material that helps prevent further infection. Our highly trained dentists perform endodontic treatment for even the most difficult root canal cases.
