When is Root Canal Treatment Necessary?
A cracked tooth or a deep cavity can expose the pulp tissue inside, allowing bacteria to enter and cause an infection. If left untreated, this infection may lead to the formation of an abscess, resulting in pain and swelling. Beyond affecting your jawbones, an untreated infection can have detrimental effects on your overall health. Root canals are a highly effective solution for addressing infections, decay, or damage that affect the pulp of the tooth. We employ state-of-the-art technology and follow best practices to ensure your procedure is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Understanding Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, typically completed in one to three visits, is a specialized dental procedure performed by either your general dentist or an endodontist—a dentist specializing in nerve-related issues of the teeth. The process involves:
- Tissue Removal: The affected pulp tissue is carefully removed to eliminate the source of infection.
- Cleaning and Sealing: The interior of the tooth is meticulously cleaned to remove any remaining debris, and the space is sealed to prevent further infection.
- Tooth Restoration: The tooth is filled with a dental composite to restore its structure and function.
