What Is an Endodontic Treatment?

If the pulp of a tooth or the surrounding tissues become infected, they can cause severe and unrelenting pain. A root canal can be performed to save the damaged or infected tooth from extraction and prevent further health complications alleviating pain and enabling patients to use their mouths like normal again.

What Are the Signs I Might Need a Root Canal?

Our patients should be aware of the numerous signs of an issue with their oral health. If you notice any of these root canal symptoms, it's crucial to schedule an appointment immediately. Our dental professionals can diagnose the issue and recommend the appropriate treatment to ensure your smile remains healthy and vibrant. Some of the symptoms indicating you need a root canal include:

  • Severe or Persistent Tooth Pain
  • Swollen or Tender Gums
  • Tooth Discoloration
  • Sensitivity
  • Bleeding

What Are the Benefits of Root Canal Therapy?

Our root canal therapy is designed to alleviate any discomfort you may be experiencing by removing the infected pulp and sealing the affected tooth. Our root canal procedure will eliminate pain, prevent the infection from spreading, and preserve your actual tooth. After treatment, you'll be able to use and care for your tooth as you normally would. We use advanced dental technology, modern techniques, and sedation to ensure safe and effective treatment for our patients.

What Should I Expect After My Root Canal Procedure?

Once the root canal procedure is complete, you will likely experience mild to moderate discomfort while the affected tooth heals. During recovery, you'll need to avoid hard, sticky, and hot foods, as well as cold foods, as these can either dislodge the filling or cause discomfort by irritating the crown. Our dentist will provide you with specific aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing.

Why Does Timely Root Canal Therapy Matter?

When your tooth's root becomes infected, it can be very painful. However, it's crucial you visit your dentist for pain lasting more than a few days. Attempting to alleviate the pain with medication or ignoring it will lead to worsening symptoms. As the infection spreads, it can lead to a variety of other issues with your jawbone, surrounding teeth, and neck. In certain extreme cases, an infected tooth can lead to sepsis.
