What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy (endodontic treatment) involves removing infected or damaged pulp within the tooth, disinfecting the internal canals, and sealing them to prevent re-infection.
This procedure helps you avoid extraction and maintain your tooth’s structure and function.
When It’s Needed
- Deep decay reaching the tooth pulp
- Persistent, severe toothache or sensitivity to hot/cold
- Swollen gums or abscess near a tooth
- Injury or trauma damaging the tooth’s nerve
Our Root Canal Process
Dr. Nguyen follows a step-by-step, patient-focused approach to ensure comfort and success:
- Consultation & Diagnosis: Exam, X-rays, and pulp vitality testing.
- Anesthesia & Isolation: Local anesthesia and a rubber dam isolate the tooth.
- Access & Cleaning: Create a small opening and remove infected tissue and debris.
- Shaping, Disinfection & Sealing: Clean and shape the canal, disinfect, then fill with gutta-percha and seal. ([EdgerlyDentistry](https://edgerlydentistry.com/root-canal-therapy-importance-signs-procedure-benefits/))
- Temporary Filling: Place a temporary restoration while final crown or restoration is prepared.
- Final Restoration: Later restore the tooth with a crown, onlay, or filling for strength and aesthetics.
