Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure performed to save a severely damaged or infected tooth. At Jade Dental, we specialize in providing gentle and effective root canal treatments to alleviate pain, preserve natural teeth, and restore your oral health.
Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the pulp, or the soft tissue inside the tooth, becomes infected or inflamed. This can occur due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the same tooth, cracks or chips in the tooth, or traumatic injuries. If left untreated, an infected tooth can lead to severe pain, abscess formation, and the need for extraction.
Root canal treatment offers several benefits, including:
Preparing for your root canal treatment can help ensure a smooth and comfortable experience. During your consultation, we will discuss your health history and any medications you’re currently taking. We’ll also provide pre-operative instructions to follow before the treatment. We will use local anesthesia for your comfort, so please make transportation arrangements to ensure your safe, comfortable journey back home.
Root canal treatment involves removing the infected tooth pulp from its chamber, cleaning and shaping the canals, then filling them with a biocompatible material to prevent recontamination.
After root canal treatment, taking proper care of the treated tooth is essential to ensure its long-term success. Our dental team will provide specific post-treatment instructions, which may include:
If you are experiencing tooth pain or suspect that you may require root canal treatment, don’t delay seeking dental care. We are committed to restoring your oral health and helping you maintain a confident smile. Contact Jade Dental today to schedule a consultation with our skilled team.
