WHY WOULD I NEED A ROOT CANAL?
When the inside of your tooth (the pulp) is badly and deeply decayed such that it causes inflammation and infection, your dentist will often tell you that you need a root canal.
If the pulp of your tooth is damaged due to inflammation and/or infection, avoiding a root canal can be detrimental to your oral health. If the infection is left, it can lead to an abscess, which can cause severe periodontal disease and abscessed gums.
MORE ABOUT A ROOT CANAL
The main goal of a root canal procedure is to save your natural tooth and avoid potentially serious surgery.
What happens during a root canal procedure?
During a root canal, the pulp of your tooth will be removed, and your Pompano Beach FL dentist at Restorative and Implant Dentistry will carefully clean and disinfect the inside of your tooth. After your tooth has been disinfected, it will be sealed up with a rubber-like material. This may take one or two visits to complete. Once this is complete, we will will restore your tooth with a crown or filling so your tooth is fully restored.
