Saving Hopeless Teeth
It is now known that tooth extraction should be avoided
whenever possible to avoid other dental problems later on.
Root canals can save a tooth with infected or damaged roots
that might have warranted extraction in the past. We are
very experienced in the latest advancements of this therapy.
During this procedure, a tooth with root problems can be
fixed by removing the pulp from the interior of the tooth. A
special filling material is packed into the tooth.
Sometimes, a crown is placed over the tooth to give
additional strength.
Patients have often avoided having a root canal because of
the reputation they have received in the past. Advancements
both in technology and anesthetics have made considerable
improvements in this therapy, and patients now find root
canals to be quite manageable.
