Root Canal Therapy at Dental on Rhodes

Relief from Tooth Pain with Expert Root Canal Treatment

At Dental on Rhodes, we are dedicated to providing effective and comfortable solutions for your dental health needs. Root canal therapy is one of our specialized services designed to save damaged or infected teeth, relieving pain and preventing further dental issues.

What is Root Canal Therapy?

Root canal therapy, also known as endodontic treatment, involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from the inside of a tooth. This procedure cleans and disinfects the root canals, then fills and seals them to prevent reinfection. Root canal therapy can save a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.

Signs You Might Need a Root Canal:

  • Severe tooth pain, especially when chewing or applying pressure

  • Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures

  • Swelling and tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth

  • Darkening or discoloration of the tooth

  • Persistent or recurring pimple on the gums

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy:

  • Pain Relief: Eliminates the source of infection and alleviates pain.

  • Tooth Preservation: Saves your natural tooth, avoiding extraction and the need for replacements like implants or bridges.

  • Restored Function: Allows you to chew and bite normally with the treated tooth.

  • Improved Oral Health: Prevents the spread of infection to other teeth and gums.

Our Root Canal Process:

  1. Diagnosis and Consultation: Our dental team will perform a thorough examination, including X-rays, to determine the extent of the infection and plan your treatment.

  2. Anesthesia: We will administer local anesthesia to numb the area and ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

  3. Cleaning and Shaping: The infected pulp will be removed, and the root canals will be cleaned, shaped, and disinfected.

  4. Filling and Sealing: The cleaned canals will be filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent future infections.

  5. Restoration: A temporary filling will be placed, and a follow-up visit will be scheduled to place a permanent crown or filling to restore the tooth’s function and appearance.
