A root canal may sound intimidating, but at Smile Studio, it is a simple and painless way to save a tooth that has become severely infected or damaged. The procedure removes the infected pulp from inside the tooth, eliminates pain, and prevents the tooth from being extracted. With today’s technology and proper care, most root canals are as comfortable as having a routine filling.
Root canal therapy is critical in the preservation of natural teeth that might otherwise need to be removed due to extensive decay or infection. The intricate process involves removing the pulp, carefully cleaning the inside of the tooth, and ultimately sealing it to prevent any future problems. At Smile Studio, we use the most advanced technology to make the treatment as painless and effective as possible, typically completing it in one or two visits. Following a root canal, we typically place a crown on the tooth to restore its strength and appearance—allowing you to bite, smile, and speak with confidence.
No. With modern anesthesia, most patients feel little to no discomfort during the procedure—it’s comparable to getting a routine filling.
You may need one if a tooth is infected, severely decayed, or causing persistent pain or sensitivity.
Most root canals are completed in one or two visits, depending on the severity of the infection and the condition of the tooth.
The tooth is sealed, and in most cases, we recommend placing a crown to protect it and restore its strength and function.
Root canals can save most severely infected or damaged teeth, but we’ll always evaluate your situation to recommend the best possible treatment option.
