Save Your Tooth
EXPERT ROOT CANAL THERAPY
At Scarlett Road Dentistry, we understand that the idea of a root canal can be intimidating. However, this common procedure can save your tooth and relieve pain caused by infection or damage. Our experienced team is dedicated to providing gentle and effective root canal therapy to restore your oral health and preserve your natural smile.
What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure that treats infection or inflammation within the pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth). When the pulp becomes infected or damaged, it can cause severe pain and potentially lead to abscesses or tooth loss if left untreated. A root canal removes the infected tissue, cleans the inside of the tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection.
Signs You Need a Root Canal
- Severe Tooth Pain: Persistent pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure.
- Sensitivity: Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures.
- Swelling and Tenderness: Swelling of the gums around the affected tooth.
- Discoloration: Darkening of the tooth.
Benefits of Root Canal Therapy
- Pain Relief: Eliminates the source of infection and relieves pain.
- Preserve Your Tooth: Saves the natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction.
- Prevent Spread of Infection: Stops the infection from spreading to surrounding teeth and tissues.
- Restore Function: Allows you to chew and speak properly without discomfort.
