A careful, step-by-step process designed to treat infection, protect your tooth, and restore long-term oral health.
We assess the affected tooth, review symptoms, and take digital X-rays to determine if root canal treatment is needed.
The infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed to eliminate bacteria and relieve pain.
The inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to help prevent future infection.
In many cases, a dental crown is recommended after treatment to protect the tooth and restore its strength and appearance.
Removes infection inside the tooth to help reduce pain, sensitivity, and swelling.
Treating the tooth early can help avoid extraction and preserve your natural smile.
Removing bacteria from inside the tooth helps prevent infection from spreading to surrounding teeth and gums.
After treatment and restoration, your tooth can function comfortably for everyday biting and chewing.
Treating the issues early can help prevent further complications (such as spread of infection or need to extract the tooth instead of doing a root canal) and support long term oral health.
Root canals will reduce the overall strength of your teeth, as you need to remove the infected inside pulp and dentine which provides majority of the support. After completion of a root canal we highly encourage our patients to place a crown on the tooth in order to prevent fractures which can be catastrophic.
It is also a generally more cost effective route to saving your dentition then tooth removal and finding the right tooth replacement options!
At Lolo Dental, we take a gentle and precise approach to root canal therapy to help ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible. Our goal is to eliminate infection while protecting the structure and strength of your tooth.
Root canal treatment is often recommended when the inner pulp of the tooth becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or severe damage. Treating the issue early can help prevent further complications and support long-term oral health.
The result is a healthier, functional tooth that allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
