ROOT CANAL TREATMENT
Did you know root canals don’t cause pain, they relieve it?
It’s true, if you’re experiencing tooth pain, a root canal may be the only solution for bringing you the long-lasting relief you seek.
Root canals are recommended in the event of inflammation or if an infection has formed deep down in the roots of one or more of your teeth as the result of:
-
deep decay or an untreated cavity
-
a traumatic mouth injury that dislodges or moves a tooth
-
exposure of the dental nerve
-
clenching or grinding of the teeth
-
increased load on the tooth due to other missing teeth
Left untreated, bacteria can infect the pulp deep down in your gums and become so severe that the tooth actually needs to be removed.
Get proper treatment before it’s too late!
Contrary to popular belief, root canals are not painful -- they relieve the pain you are feeling that makes the root canal necessary in the first place -- and are a simple four-step process performed over two separate office visits.
What To Expect During The First Visit For Root Canal Treatment
Apply Anesthesia
Remove Damaged Pulp
Insert Filling
What To Expect During The Second Visit For Root Canal Treatment
Attach Crown
That’s all there is to it.
Why keep suffering through nightmarish tooth pain when you can walk out that very same day completely pain-free, by making your old tooth feel brand new?
Endodontic therapy and treatment eliminates infections, protects decontaminated teeth from future microbial invasions and provides soothing, long-lasting relief so you can finally be yourself again.
The fact is, tooth pain cannot be ignored away.
Every day you put off doing something about it, is another day of pain you can expect in your future. Even worse, the infection can spread to neighbouring teeth and eventually cause permanent damage to your teeth, gums and mouth.
So what does a root canal treatment cost?
The specific dollar amount your root canal will eventually cost depends on numerous factors, including:
-
the amount of diagnostics like x-rays and pulp vitality tests needed to diagnose and confirm the specific problem in the first place,
-
which tooth is infected,
-
the overall condition of the tooth or teeth and
-
whether or not an abscess has formed
-
whether or not there is any other collateral damage to your surrounding tissue, gums and bone
-
whether or not you need a crown to top off your tooth
The 3 BIG QUESTIONS you need to ask yourself are:
-
Can I afford not to seek root canal treatment?
-
How many more torturous days and sleepless nights of tooth pain do I want to experience?
-
Do I want to look back after it’s too late to do anything and wish I would have made more of an effort to save my infected tooth or teeth?
