Root canal therapy, commonly referred to as a root canal, is a specialized form of endodontic treatment often recommended when the tooth's pulp and nerves become infected or damaged. This typically occurs when injury or decay penetrates deep into the tooth, beyond the protective outer enamel layer. If left untreated, this type of infection can lead to the death of the tooth, ultimately necessitating extraction. To preserve the tooth's health and avoid extraction, our experienced dentists will perform a root canal. Root canals involve a meticulous process:

• First, we remove the infected and injured tissues from inside the tooth.
• The tooth is then thoroughly cleaned and filled with a medicated material.
• A dental crown or other suitable restoration is placed on the tooth to restore its original form and functionality, as well as protect the tooth from sustaining additional damage.

Remarkably, most root canal treatments can be completed comfortably in just one or two visits to our office.
