Root Canals

A root canal is a dental procedure that removes the infected pulp from a tooth. The pulp is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected, it can cause pain, swelling, and infection. A root canal is necessary to save the tooth from being extracted.

Additional benefits of root canals:

• • They can save you money in the long run. Extractions can be more expensive than root canals, and you may need to have a bridge or implant placed if you have a tooth extracted.
  • They can help you keep your natural teeth. Natural teeth are better for your overall health than artificial teeth. They help you chew food properly, which can help you digest your food and absorb nutrients. They also help you speak clearly.
  • They can give you peace of mind. Knowing that your tooth is healthy and won’t cause you any more pain can be a huge relief.
