Visit Us With Any Symptoms That May Require Root Canal Treatment

A tooth in need of a root canal has a deep-seated infection. If left untreated, it’s possible for the infection to spread to surrounding teeth and your gums. While symptoms vary, you might need a root canal treatment if:

    • Your tooth is sensitive to hot or cold

    • Your gums are swollen or tender around your tooth

    • Your tooth hurts when you use it to chew

    • Your tooth is discolored

    • You have tooth pain that comes and goes throughout the day

    • Your dentist sees signs of infection on X-rays

Rely On Our Team For Precision Root Canal Care

If we determine you do need a root canal, here’s what we’ll do:

    • Your dentist will begin by numbing the appropriate area of your mouth.

    • He will then enter the narrow channels inside your tooth and clean out the infected tissue and bacteria.

    • He will then fill the canals of the tooth with material that prevents infection – and the associated pain – from coming back.

    • Your tooth, now free of infection, will be covered with a dental crown for appearance, strength, and protection from further damage.

To avoid future root canal procedures, we recommend visiting our dental office every six months for dental cleanings and exams. We can also treat your teeth with fluoride to strengthen them against cavities.
