Root Canals

Our expert team ensures a comfortable and precise root canal process, involving damaged pulp removal, thorough cleaning, and sealing of the tooth, using advanced techniques and local anesthesia to preserve natural teeth, maintain bite and chewing abilities, and promote a swift recovery and long-term oral health.

Our Process

Dental Exam: The dentist begins with a thorough examination of the affected tooth, which may include X-rays, to diagnose the extent of the infection or damage inside the tooth.

Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the tooth and surrounding area, ensuring a pain-free procedure.

Tooth Isolation: The tooth is isolated with a rubber dam to keep it dry and free from saliva during the procedure.

Creating an Opening: The dentist drills an opening in the crown of the tooth to access the pulp chamber and root canals.

Removing Infected Tissue: Special instruments are used to clean out the infected or damaged pulp from the canals. The dentist also shapes the canals to prepare them for the filling material.

Disinfection: The canals are disinfected to eliminate any remaining bacteria.

Filling: The cleaned and shaped canals are filled with a biocompatible material, usually gutta-percha, and sealed with an adhesive cement to prevent future infection.

Temporary or Permanent Filling: A temporary filling material is placed on the access opening to protect the tooth between appointments. In some cases, a permanent filling or crown may be placed in the same visit.

Recovery Guidance: The dentist provides instructions on how to care for the treated tooth and manage any post-procedure discomfort. This may include pain management and oral hygiene practices.

Additional Restoration: If a temporary filling was used, a follow-up visit is needed for the placement of a permanent filling or crown to fully restore the tooth.
