Hearing the words “root canal” can make anyone nervous, but at Countryside Dental & Aesthetics, our patients are always surprised by how easy and comfortable the experience truly is. Modern root canal therapy is a simple, pain relieving procedure that allows us to save a tooth that might otherwise need to be removed. Most patients say it feels no different than getting a regular filling.
When a tooth becomes infected or deeply damaged, it can cause swelling, sensitivity and severe discomfort. A root canal removes the infection, cleans the inside of the tooth and protects it so you can keep your natural smile for years to come. We take our time, move gently and always make sure you feel relaxed and fully numb before anything begins.
Once the tooth is cleaned and restored, we often place a crown to strengthen it and give it long term support. This helps the tooth function just like normal again, allowing you to eat, speak and smile with ease.
• Deep tooth pain or throbbing
• Sensitivity to hot or cold
• A cracked or injured tooth
• Swelling or tenderness in the gums
• Infection inside the tooth
There is no need to live with pain or worry about losing your tooth. With the right care, a tooth that has had a root canal can last just as long as any other tooth in your mouth.
We are here to help you feel calm, comfortable and cared for every step of the way. Just give us a call, and we will take great care of you.
