About Root Canals
Root canals are an alternative to a tooth extraction that involves restoring your tooth. When there’s a deep filling it might seem like the tooth has to go but endodontic treatment involves removing the pulp inside the tooth and eliminating any infection. The tooth is cleaned out, medication inserted, and a temporary filling goes in.
At a subsequent appointment you’ll get your permanent filling and then a crown is placed over top of the tooth to add stability to the tooth. This procedure generally takes a few appointments but can be well worth the results of saving your tooth. Most patients feel little to no discomfort during a root canal.
After your root canal is complete we can also fit your tooth with a crown, which is important for stabilizing the tooth. Crowns are caps that fit over your tooth and they look natural and feel great.
