Restore your tooth's health with expert root canal therapy
At Mahogany Village Dental, we understand that a root canal may sound intimidating, but rest assured, our team is dedicated to providing gentle and effective root canal therapy to save your natural tooth and relieve your pain.
What is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, is a procedure designed to treat the infected or inflamed pulp of a tooth. The pulp, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue, can become infected due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma. If left untreated, an infected tooth can cause severe pain and may lead to abscess formation or loss of the tooth.
Our Approach to Root Canal Therapy:
- Comprehensive Evaluation: Before starting treatment, we conduct a thorough examination, which may include X-rays, to assess the extent of damage and determine if root canal therapy is necessary.
- Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on our evaluation, we create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We explain the procedure, discuss alternatives if applicable, and address any concerns you may have.
- Procedure Overview: During the root canal procedure:some text
- We numb the area around the affected tooth to ensure your comfort.
- An access hole is created in the tooth to remove the infected pulp.
- The root canal is cleaned, shaped, and disinfected to remove bacteria and prevent further infection.
- The canal is filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent re-infection.
- In some cases, a crown may be recommended to restore the tooth's strength and protect it from future damage.
- Post-Treatment Care: After your root canal therapy, we provide instructions on how to care for your tooth, including oral hygiene practices and any necessary follow-up appointments.
