Root Canals

Also known as endodontic treatment, Root canals are usually reserved for cases that have severe tooth infections.

What is root canal therapy?

Root canal therapy, or endodontic treatment, is usually reserved for cases that have severe tooth infections that did not get addressed early on. A cavity that does not get a tooth filling will grow and cause deeper infection and tooth decay. This prompts the need for a root canal.

A root canal removes the infected issue inside your tooth which eliminates your infection, relieves your discomfort, and protects your natural tooth structure.
