Root Canals

With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime. It is important to maintain good oral health practices, including brushing, flossing, and visiting your dentist regularly.

The only alternative to a root canal treatment is extracting the tooth. However, tooth extraction should be considered as a last resort, as it can lead to additional dental problems and the need for tooth replacement options like dental implants or bridges.

The duration of a root canal treatment depends on the complexity of the case and the tooth being treated. In most cases, the procedure can be completed in one to two visits.

Thanks to modern techniques and anesthesia, root canal treatment is typically no more uncomfortable than getting a dental filling. Our team will ensure you are completely numb and comfortable throughout the procedure.

Root canal treatment aims to save your natural tooth, which is always the best option whenever possible. It helps preserve your oral health, maintains proper chewing function, and prevents neighboring teeth from shifting.
