A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage to the pulp of a tooth. 

The pulp is the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or damaged – often due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or a crack or chip in the tooth – it needs to be removed. If left untreated, it can cause swelling, pain, and even lead to an abscess.

Root Canals can typically be completed in one or two visits and include: 

• Diagnosis
• Anesthesia
• Access Opening
• Pulp Removal
• Disinfection & Irrigation
• Temporary Filling
• Final Restoration

BENEFITS: 

• Saves your natural tooth
• Eliminates pain
• Restores function
• Prevents the spread of infection
• Maintains Oral health
