Root Canals

Why Root Canals Are Important

When the inner pulp of a tooth becomes infected or damaged, it can lead to severe pain and threaten the health of your entire mouth. Root canal therapy is essential for:

Relieving Pain

Removes infection and inflammation, providing immediate relief from discomfort.

Preserving Natural Teeth

Saves a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted.

Preventing Further Issues

Stops the spread of infection to other teeth or areas of the body.

Restoring Functionality

Allows you to chew, bite, and speak without pain or sensitivity.

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

Root canals offer significant advantages over alternative treatments, such as extraction:
  • Pain Relief: Eliminates infection and discomfort quickly and effectively.
  • Preservation of Natural Teeth: Maintains your natural smile and avoids gaps caused by extractions.
  • Cost-Effective: Avoids the need for more extensive procedures like implants or bridges.
  • Improved Oral Health: Restores function and prevents further damage or infection.

Common Questions

Are root canals painful?

No. Modern root canal therapy is virtually painless, thanks to advanced techniques and effective anesthesia. Most patients report feeling relief from pain after the procedure.

Root canals typically take 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity of the case. Some may require a follow-up visit to place a crown.
In most cases, yes. However, if the tooth is too severely damaged or decayed, extraction may be the best option. Our team will thoroughly evaluate your condition to recommend the best solution.
