Have Questions About Root Canals?
What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection at the center of a tooth (the root canal system). This treatment is necessary when the pulp inside the tooth, which contains nerve tissue and blood vessels, becomes infected or damaged. Through root canal therapy, we can save the tooth, alleviate pain, and prevent further infection.
Who Needs a Root Canal?
Root canal treatment is recommended for patients who have:
- A severe toothache during chewing or application of pressure
- Prolonged sensitivity or pain in response to hot and cold temperatures
- Discoloration or darkening of the tooth
- Swelling and tenderness in nearby gums
- A persistent or recurring pimple on the gums
