Root canal therapy

When the inner tissue of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, discomfort can build quickly. A root canal gently removes the source of the problem while preserving the tooth itself. Many patients feel relief soon after treatment, especially when discomfort has been present for days.

We explain the process clearly and move step by step so everything feels manageable.

Why you might need one

Treatment may include:

  • Removing infected or inflamed tissue
  • Cleaning and shaping the root canal
  • Sealing the space to prevent reinfection
  • Planning a follow-up restoration for long-term strength

What treatment is like

Before beginning, your dentist reviews X-rays and explains what they see. We ensure the area is fully numb, check in often, and outline each stage as we go. After treatment, a crown or filling may be recommended depending on how much natural structure remains.
