Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

  • Relieves Pain 
    Eliminates the discomfort caused by infection or inflammation in the tooth.
  • Saves Your Natural Tooth 
    Preserves the structure and function of your natural tooth, avoiding extraction.
  • Prevents Further Infection 
    Removes bacteria and damaged tissue, stopping the spread of infection.
  • Restores Functionality 
    Restores the tooth’s strength and allows you to chew and bite comfortably.

How Root Canal Therapy Works

During root canal therapy, we remove the infected or damaged pulp from inside your tooth, clean and disinfect the area, and fill it with a biocompatible material. The tooth is then sealed and typically restored with a crown to provide lasting protection and functionality. This process not only eliminates pain but also prevents the need for an extraction, allowing you to keep your natural tooth.

  • What is a root canal, and why is it necessary?

    A root canal removes infected or damaged tissue from the inside of a tooth, relieving pain and preventing further infection. It’s necessary when the tooth’s pulp becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, trauma, or deep cracks.

  • Does a root canal hurt?

    With modern techniques and local anesthesia, root canal therapy is a virtually painless procedure. Most patients report feeling relief from their toothache after treatment.

  • How long does a root canal take?

    The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours and may require one or two visits depending on the complexity of the case.
