Root Canals

Root Canal Therapy is an essential procedure to prevent the development of tooth abscesses. When a tooth abscess is present, patients may experience symptoms such as a pus-filled pocket within the tooth leading to swelling and inflammation.

Root Canal Treatment is employed in cases of severe tooth decay to salvage and restore a compromised tooth.

Contrary to common misconceptions, the process of root canal treatment is generally no more painful than receiving a dental filling. The real discomfort often arises before seeking dental care, not during the root canal procedure itself. In instances requiring emergency root canal treatment, consulting a specialist is advisable.

Root canal procedures are conducted when the tooth’s nerve becomes infected or the pulp is damaged due to extensive decay that has infiltrated and impacted the tooth’s nerves and pulp tissues. Throughout the procedure, the infected nerve and pulp are extracted, and the interior of the tooth is meticulously cleaned and sealed.

Opting for a specialist to perform the root canal treatment is highly recommended. A general dentist might require multiple visits to complete the procedure, whereas our specialists, typically completes even the most complex root canals in no more than 45 minutes.

It’s important to emphasize that the longevity of any dental procedure, including root canal treatment, hinges on maintaining good oral health habits. Concerns about potential root canal failure over the years should be addressed by focusing on diligent post-procedural care.
