At our dental practice, we are committed to preserving your natural smile through advanced and compassionate care. One of the key procedures we offer to achieve this is root canal therapy. This treatment is designed to save teeth that might otherwise need to be removed, allowing you to maintain your natural teeth and enjoy a healthy, beautiful smile for years to come.
Root canal therapy, often simply called a root canal, addresses issues within the inner tooth’s pulp. When this pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures or cracks in the tooth, it can cause severe pain and lead to abscesses if left untreated.
Preserving your natural teeth is always our priority. By opting for root canal therapy, you can avoid the complications associated with tooth extraction, such as shifting of adjacent teeth, bite problems and the need for more complex dental procedures like implants or bridges. Root canal therapy effectively eliminates the infection and pain while retaining your tooth’s structure and function.
Our team understands that the idea of a root canal can be daunting. We are here to ensure your experience is as comfortable and stress-free as possible. During your visit, we will thoroughly explain the procedure, answer any questions you may have and take the time to understand your concerns. Our advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment enable us to perform root canal therapy with precision and minimal discomfort.
The process begins with a comprehensive examination and diagnostic tests, including X-rays, to assess the condition of your tooth. Once it is determined that a root canal is necessary, we will proceed by numbing the affected area to ensure you are comfortable. We will then create a small opening in the tooth to access the infected pulp, which will be carefully removed. After thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the interior of the tooth, we will fill and seal it to prevent further infection. Finally, a crown or filling will be placed to restore the tooth’s strength and functionality.

My experience was very warm and welcoming no complaints, the dentist explained everything to my satisfaction. I'm certainly pleased with my new dental home.
Amazing experience!! I came for a cleaning and had an extraction. They put my bridge in today and I am truly amazed by the results! The staff is so kind and thorough.
