If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, or swelling around your gums, you may need a root canal. A root canal is a highly effective treatment for saving a damaged or infected tooth, allowing you to keep your natural smile intact while alleviating discomfort.
At Better Image Dentistry, we understand the importance of your comfort during this procedure. Dr. Sapru and our experienced team use advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to perform root canal treatments with precision and minimal discomfort. The procedure involves removing the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth, cleaning the root canal, and sealing it to prevent further infection.
Root canal treatment is typically recommended when the tooth’s pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or severely damaged due to decay, trauma, or cracks. If left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to more serious complications like abscesses or the loss of the tooth.
Contrary to the myths, root canal treatment is not as painful as many people think. With modern anesthesia and techniques, most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure. Afterward, the tooth is sealed and restored with a crown to ensure its strength and functionality.
If you’re experiencing tooth pain, don’t wait. Schedule a consultation with us at Better Image Dentistry, and we’ll help you get back to a pain-free, healthy smile. Trust our team to provide the care you need for lasting relief and tooth preservation.
