Understanding Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is a highly effective procedure used to treat an infection or inflammation within the tooth’s pulp. This treatment helps preserve your natural tooth structure, preventing the need for extraction and maintaining the integrity of your smile. With the expert care provided at Russo Family Dentistry & Aesthetics, root canals can be completed efficiently and with minimal discomfort.

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy:

  • Eliminates Pain and Infection: Relief from severe tooth pain and removal of the infected pulp.
  • Preserves Natural Teeth: Avoids tooth extraction and maintains the natural function and appearance of your smile.
  • Restores Functionality: Strengthens the affected tooth to allow for normal biting and chewing.
  • Protects Oral Health: Prevents the spread of infection to surrounding teeth and gums.

Your comfort is our priority. Here’s what you can expect when you undergo root canal therapy at Russo Family Dentistry & Aesthetics:

  2. Personalized Treatment Plan: Our dentist will discuss the procedure in detail, answer your questions, and tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs.
  3. Pain-Free Procedure: With the use of local anesthesia and modern techniques, our root canal procedures are performed with minimal discomfort. We take every measure to ensure you are relaxed and comfortable throughout.
  4. Effective Cleaning and Sealing: The infected pulp is carefully removed, the tooth is cleaned, and the canal is sealed to prevent future issues.
