Root Canal Therapy

The treatment that saves your own tooth. Modern root canals are nothing like the reputation.

(01)What it is

The
work.

A root canal removes infected pulp from inside the tooth, disinfects the canals, and seals them — preserving your natural tooth rather than extracting it. Modern instrumentation, irrigation, and anesthesia have made root canals routine and, for most patients, no more uncomfortable than a filling.

We complete most single-tooth root canals in one visit. Complex cases we refer to trusted endodontists.

Duration

60–90 minutes

(05)Answers

Things people
ask first.

  • The procedure itself is done under profound anesthesia. Most patients say it felt like a long filling. The pain they came in with is gone when they leave.
