A Root Canal Can Save Your Tooth
Our experienced team will do everything we can to help you maintain your natural teeth. With a root canal, you may avoid having a tooth removed. A root canal usually becomes necessary when tooth decay causes a cavity so deep that the decay begins to infect and inflame the soft tissue and nerves (pulp) inside a tooth.
Before we begin repairing your infected tooth with a root canal procedure, we will explain each step of the process. Here's what to expect:
- Using our advanced computer-assisted anesthesia delivery system, we will comfortably numb the area so you won't feel a thing.
- We will remove the infected pulp and clean out the inside of your tooth.
- We will then fill your tooth with a special rubber-like material to seal it and help prevent reinfection.
Depending on how weak your tooth has become, we may recommend attaching a dental crown to strengthen it. A crown will provide a finishing touch to your root canal repair and will restore virtually all your biting and chewing capacity.
Don't believe what you've seen in movies. Thanks to modern dental technology, root canals are no more uncomfortable than a tooth filling. That said, if you are nervous, we can help relieve your dental anxiety with our dental sedation options. Choose from inhaled sedation with laughing gas or oral sedation using a small, FDA-approved pill.
Say goodbye to dental pain with Cincinnati root canals from Bell Dental Group. Call us today at 513-802-9440 for an appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions About Root Canals
What does a root canal do?
Root canal therapy (often shortened to just "root canal") is a treatment that can stop the throbbing pain of a diseased tooth, save the tooth from extraction, and prevent further damage to your other teeth and your gums. Many people fear root canals, but they are actually no more painful than having a tooth filled.
Why have a root canal?
When the soft inner portion of a tooth (known as the pulp) becomes infected, it can produce intense pain. This can happen as a result of an untreated cavity or an injury to the tooth that allows bacteria inside. A root canal involves removing the diseased pulp, sterilizing the tooth, and sealing it with a rubberlike material and a crown.
Are root canals painful?
While they have that reputation, most patients find a root canal no more uncomfortable than receiving a filling. The procedure eliminates pain - it doesn't cause you more of it! We'll numb your mouth with local anesthesia so you don't feel any discomfort. You may find it easier to relax if you also receive one of our two forms of safe dental sedation.
