Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, involves removing the infected or injured pulp tissue from inside the tooth, disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection. This procedure allows us to save your natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction and preserving its function and appearance.
Here's what you can expect from our Root canal service:
- Comprehensive Evaluation: Our dental professionals will conduct a thorough examination and evaluation of the affected tooth. We will assess the extent of the infection or damage and determine if root canal treatment is the most suitable option. We'll explain the procedure, answer any questions you may have, and address any concerns or anxieties you may be experiencing.
- Local Anesthesia and Sedation Options: To ensure your comfort during the root canal procedure, we offer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth. This helps eliminate any pain or discomfort during the treatment. We can also discuss sedation options if you experience dental anxiety or require additional relaxation during the procedure.
- Precise and Gentle Treatment: Our dental professionals utilize advanced techniques and technology to perform root canal treatment with precision and care. We remove the infected or damaged pulp, clean the root canals thoroughly, and shape them to facilitate the filling and sealing process. Our goal is to effectively eliminate the infection and promote optimal healing.
- Restorative Care: After the root canal procedure, we will discuss the appropriate restorative care needed to protect and strengthen the treated tooth. In most cases, a dental crown is recommended to restore the tooth's function, aesthetics, and structural integrity. We will guide you through the process of selecting and placing a custom dental crown that matches your natural teeth.
- Post-Treatment Care: Our team will provide you with detailed instructions on post-treatment care to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal healing. We'll discuss proper oral hygiene practices, pain management techniques, and any necessary follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure the success of the treatment.
