Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is a treatment used to remove infected or damaged pulp from inside a tooth, helping to save the natural tooth and prevent further infection. This procedure involves cleaning, disinfecting, and sealing the tooth, relieving pain and restoring the tooth’s health and function.

At Neal Family Dentistry, we collaborate closely with trusted specialists to provide expert root canal therapy when a tooth’s pulp becomes inflamed, infected, or dead. Dr. Neal works with these specialists to ensure your procedure is performed with the highest level of care, and together we will determine the best treatment plan to save and restore your natural tooth.

The root canal treatment involves removing damaged pulp from inside the tooth and cleaning the root canals with specialized disinfecting solutions. During the procedure, your comfort is a top priority, and we may provide local anesthesia or sedation. Afterward, a temporary filling is placed to protect the tooth until your permanent restoration is complete. You might experience some sensitivity for a few days, which can be managed with recommended pain medications. Rest assured, through our collaborative approach, we are dedicated to providing effective, preservation-focused care to help you maintain a healthy, functional smile for years to come.
