Expert Root Canal Therapy at Advanced Dental Lapeer, MI
Root canal therapy is a highly effective treatment for saving a severely damaged or infected tooth. At Advanced Dental Lapeer, our skilled team of endodontists specializes in providing expert root canal treatments to relieve tooth pain and preserve your natural smile.
What is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, involves removing infected or damaged pulp from the inside of a tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and then filling and sealing the space to prevent further infection. This procedure is typically recommended for teeth with deep decay, trauma, or infection that has reached the inner pulp chamber.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal:
- Persistent tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure
- Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
- Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
- Pimple-like bumps on the gums
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule an evaluation with one of our experienced endodontists to determine if root canal therapy is necessary.
Our Root Canal Treatment Process:
Initial Evaluation: During your initial visit, our endodontist will examine your tooth and take X-rays to assess the extent of damage or infection.
Treatment Planning: Based on the evaluation, a personalized treatment plan will be developed to address your specific needs and concerns.
Root Canal Procedure: The root canal procedure will be performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. The infected pulp will be removed, and the root canals will be thoroughly cleaned and shaped.
Filling and Sealing: Once the root canals are cleaned, they will be filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha and sealed to prevent bacteria from re-entering the tooth.
Restoration: After the root canal treatment is complete, a permanent restoration such as a dental crown may be placed to strengthen and protect the tooth.
