Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy refers to the process by which a dentist treats the inner aspects
of a tooth; it’s a treatment that can help save your tooth/teeth from extraction.
This procedure is performed when the nerve and vessel in the interior of the tooth
is injured or infected. The dentist will clean ducts, apply disinfectant inside
the tooth and fill it out with cement or gutta-percha.
The root canal therapy will leave your tooth clean, uninfected and with out any
pain. This treatment is completed when a crown is placed in the tooth.
For patients, root canal therapy is one of the most feared procedures in all of
dentistry; however, our professional dentists in Echo Park control the pain with
advanced anesthesia techniques, leaving the tooth in perfect conditions and with
no pain at all!
