Root canal therapy provides an effective way to save severely damaged or infected teeth that would otherwise require extraction. Our team uses advanced techniques and technology to remove infected tissue from inside your tooth, eliminate pain, and restore your tooth’s health and function. This conservative treatment allows you to keep your natural tooth while addressing the underlying infection, maintaining your bite alignment and avoiding the need for more complex tooth replacement procedures.
Contrary to common misconceptions, modern root canal therapy is typically comfortable and highly successful. Our team uses advanced numbing techniques and takes time to ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure. Our gentle approach and clear communication help patients feel at ease, and many are surprised by how comfortable the treatment actually is. With proper care following treatment, root canal therapy can allow your natural tooth to last for many years while eliminating the pain and infection that brought you to our office.
Root canal therapy allows you to keep your natural tooth rather than having it extracted and replaced. Preserving your natural tooth maintains proper bite alignment, prevents adjacent teeth from shifting, and avoids the need for more complex replacement procedures.
Root canal treatment removes the infected or inflamed tissue causing your tooth pain, providing immediate relief from discomfort. Most patients experience significant pain reduction shortly after treatment, allowing them to return to normal activities comfortably.
By removing infected tissue and sealing the tooth, root canal therapy prevents the spread of infection to surrounding tissues and other teeth. This treatment protects your overall oral and systemic health while preserving your natural tooth structure.

Root canal therapy is needed when the inner tissue (pulp) of your tooth becomes infected or severely inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or injury. Symptoms may include severe toothache, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, discoloration, swelling, or no symptoms at all. Our team will evaluate your symptoms and take X-rays to determine if root canal treatment is necessary.
Modern root canal therapy is typically very comfortable. Our team uses effective numbing techniques to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. Many patients are surprised by how comfortable the treatment is, and the procedure actually eliminates the pain you were experiencing from the infected tooth.
Most root canal treatments can be completed in one to two visits, depending on the complexity of your case. Each appointment typically takes 60-120 minutes. Our team will explain your specific treatment timeline during consultation and ensure you understand what to expect throughout the process.
After root canal treatment, our team will typically place a temporary crown that will soon be switched with a permanent crown to protect the root canal from re-infection and restore full function. You may experience mild discomfort for a few days, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Most patients can return to normal activities the next day.
Root canal therapy has a very high success rate, with most treated teeth lasting many years or even a lifetime with proper care. Success depends on factors like the extent of infection, your overall oral health, and following post-treatment care instructions. Our team will discuss your specific prognosis based on your individual situation.
The main alternative to root canal therapy is tooth extraction followed by replacement with a dental implant, bridge, or partial denture. However, preserving your natural tooth through root canal treatment is usually preferable as it maintains your natural bite and doesn’t require treatment of adjacent teeth. Our team will discuss all options with you.
