Endodontics

A deeply decayed or infected tooth doesn’t always need to be removed. Root canal therapy can save your natural tooth by removing inflamed or infected pulp, cleaning the canals, and sealing them to prevent reinfection. With localized anesthesia and modern techniques, most patients describe the procedure as similar to getting a filling. Many teeth will also need a crown afterward for long-term strength. We’ll review your images and discuss what to expect during and after treatment. The goal: relieve pain, stop the infection, and preserve your tooth whenever possible.
