Root Canals

A root canal is a dental procedure to remove inflamed or infected pulp on the inside of the tooth which is then carefully cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed. Root canal treatment is designed to eliminate bacteria from the infected root canal, prevent reinfection of the tooth and save the natural tooth. It's very similar to a routine filling and can usually be completed in one or two appointments, depending on the condition of your tooth. Getting a root canal is relatively painless and extremely effective. You'll be back to smiling, biting and chewing with ease in no time.
