What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a dental procedure designed to remove infection from the inner part of a tooth, known as the pulp. The pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When it becomes infected due to decay, trauma, or cracks, a root canal is necessary to save the tooth and prevent the infection from spreading.

Signs You May Need a Root Canal

Common symptoms that may indicate the need for root canal therapy include:

Severe toothache or sensitivity
Pain when chewing or biting
Swelling or tenderness in the gums
Darkening of the tooth
Persistent pimple or abscess on the gums

If you experience any of these symptoms, contact us immediately at (339) 645-9777 for an evaluation.

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

1. Preserves Your Natural Tooth

Root canal therapy eliminates the need for extraction, keeping your natural tooth intact.

2. Relieves Pain

The procedure removes the source of infection, alleviating discomfort and swelling.

3. Restores Function

After treatment, your tooth is fully restored and able to function normally.

4. Long-Term Solution

With proper care, a tooth treated with a root canal can last a lifetime.

The Root Canal Process

1. Diagnosis and Planning

Dr. Rana will evaluate your symptoms and use tools like digital x-rays to confirm the need for a root canal.

2. Numbing the Area

We use local anesthesia to ensure a pain-free experience. Sedation options are also available for anxious patients.

3. Cleaning the Infection

The infected pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.

4. Sealing the Tooth

The tooth is filled with a durable material to prevent future infection. In most cases, a crown will be placed to restore its strength and appearance.
