Endodontic treatment (commonly known as a root canal) saves severely damaged or infected teeth by treating the inner pulp. Rather than extracting the tooth, this procedure eliminates pain, clears infection, and restores normal function, preserving your natural smile.
Severe tooth pain or sensitivity
Persistent infection or abscess
Deep decay reaching the tooth’s nerve
Tooth trauma causing nerve damage
You experience severe, lingering tooth pain
You have swelling or tenderness around a tooth
Your dentist has diagnosed pulp infection or nerve damage

Endodontic treatment is typically performed under local anesthesia for comfort. Your Specialist will:
Access the interior of the tooth
Remove infected or damaged pulp tissue
Clean, disinfect, and shape the root canals
Fill and seal the space with a biocompatible material
Restore the tooth with a filling or crown
The goal is to eliminate infection and protect the tooth from future damage.
