Root Canals
Tooth Whitening
Root canal therapy is used to save a tooth when the inner nerve tissue becomes inflamed or infected—often due to deep decay, trauma, or cracks. If you’re experiencing lingering sensitivity, pain when biting, swelling, or a recurring toothache, a root canal may address the cause and preserve your natural tooth.
Modern root canal treatment is designed to be comfortable and effective. Our goal is to remove infection, relieve symptoms, and restore the tooth so you can function normally again.

Procedure Practice
What is the procedure?
Common signs include lingering hot/cold sensitivity, pain when chewing, swelling, or changes seen on X-rays. An exam confirms the diagnosis.
With local anesthetic, most patients feel pressure rather than pain. Many say it feels similar to getting a filling.
Often yes, especially for back teeth. A crown protects the tooth from fracture and restores strength.
