Why You Should Not Be Scared of a Root Canal?

Posted on 4/26/2021 by Fern Creek Dentistry

A root canal may not sound like a good experience however a better understanding of the entire procedure from our professionals will help you understand there is nothing to fear as far as your dental wellbeing is concerned. The procedure is very simple and involves removal of the pulp and filling the cavity them followed by a cap or a crown.

Comfortable Root Canal Procedure

Our professionals ensure you are as comfortable as possible during the procedure. We start by administering anesthesia. After this, the rest of the teeth are shielded with a “dental dam”. As the area is desensitized, a small high-speed drill is used to clean the root and pulp of the tooth. Deep cleansing is done with antiseptic to thoroughly disinfect the root and pulp areas. Once the canal and pulp area is cleansed it is then filled to prevent any bacterial infection.

Keeping Infections Away

Our professionals make the root canal procedure simple and painless. We also suggest medication to help with quicker recovery. If the tooth was severely wrecked, you will need to return for a crown to place on top of the filling. Once in place, this newly fitted crown can withstand daily wear and tear and your complete functionality will return in no time. You will feel no discomfort after the procedure and your treated tooth will feel just like the other teeth in your mouth.

Our professionals do all it takes to make the root canal procedure successful. We never compromise on your oral health and will always suggest the best available treatment methods. If you are considering a root canal or it is imminent, give us a call and we will set up a convenient time so you can discuss the procedure in detail with our professionals.
