Why Choose Chisholm Trail Dental Health for Root Canal Therapy?

Why You Might Need a Root Canal

Root canal therapy is necessary when the nerve of a tooth, called the dental pulp, has been affected by decay or infection. This can be the result of a longstanding cavity or a crack in the enamel that has exposed the pulp to bacteria. Without treatment, the pulp can actually die, and the tooth would have to be removed. Fortunately, a root canal can save even the most damaged teeth and help a patient avoid the need (and expense) of getting it replaced.

Thanks to this approach, most patients describe feeling little to no discomfort during the procedure. In fact, the pain often associated with it is actually due to the infections it’s designed to correct!

What to Expect After a Root Canal

Some sensitivity is typical after a root canal, but the tooth will already feel much better compared to before the treatment. This should go away after a few days, and then the tooth can be expected to look and function like normal for many years to come.
