The Process of Getting a Root Canal
The root canal procedure may require one or more treatments by an endodontist or a general dentist.
The affected tooth will be numbed with a local anesthetic, and the nerve tissue and any area of tooth decay will be gently removed through a small opening through the top of the tooth. Once the tissue has been removed, the space will be sterilized to eliminate bacteria and filled with a medicated dental material. The access opening will be permanently sealed, and the tooth will be stabilized until a permanent crown can be prepared.
The root canal procedure and the appropriate permanent restoration will prevent the tooth from breaking and fully restore its function.
Modern root canal therapy is performed with advanced technology and precision instrumentation. Local anesthetics and pain relievers enable us to perform the procedure in a manner that is comfortable and easily tolerated by our patients. If you are experiencing any of the signs and symptoms listed above, please contact our dental office immediately to schedule a clinical consultation.
