Save Your Tooth with a Root Canal
When Is a Root Canal Necessary?
- Root canal treatment is needed when the tooth pulp (nerve) becomes infected or damaged due to:
- Deep tooth decay
- Cracked tooth
- Periodontal (gum) disease
- Repeated dental procedures
- Common signs include:
- Tooth pain
- Sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swelling or dental abscess
Root Canal Procedure
- The infected pulp is removed during endodontic treatment
- The tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed with a biocompatible filling
- Treatment is performed under local anesthesia
- Most root canal procedures are completed in one visit
After Root Canal Treatment
- A temporary filling is placed after treatment
- Follow up with your restorative dentist within 2–4 weeks for a permanent crown or restoration
- Your dentist will recommend the best option to protect the treated tooth
Follow-Up Care
- Severely infected teeth may require a short healing evaluation
- Follow-up visits are provided at no additional cost
