Do I Need Root Canal Therapy?

Here are some signs that you have an abscessed tooth and need root canal therapy:
  • Severe tooth infection
  • Tooth pain
  • Tooth discoloration
  • Gums that are swollen near tooth
  • Swollen areas in the mouth, jaw, or face
  • Heightened sensitivity to cold or hot beverages and food

How Can Root Canal Therapy Help?

Root canal therapy provides many advantages, including these:

  • It can provide relief from the pain of a severe tooth infection. After removing the infected pulp, your tooth should be fully functional and free of pain.
  • Your original tooth will be saved from extraction. Having your original tooth protects the jaw from deterioration. Your natural tooth will also be covered with a dental crown to prevent further infection.
  • The tooth will likely look better. Infected pulp can lead to tooth discoloration, but a dental crown can improve the appearance of your tooth.
  • Treatment is relatively simple. Despite its reputation, root canal therapy is actually similar to receiving a dental filling.

What Is Endodontics?

If you have some or all of the symptoms listed above, you could most likely benefit from endodontic services. Endodontics deals with the nerve and soft tissue inside of the tooth. Our dentist can remove infected pulp to save your natural tooth and allow it to function normally.
