Root Canal Therapy
Root canal treatment is nothing like those scary rumors we have all heard about! The truth is root canals can be completed with little-to-no discomfort. Root canal therapy is extremely effective and can usually be completed in one or two appointments, depending on the condition of your tooth and your personal circumstances.
Also known as root canal treatment, root canal therapy is a form of endodontic therapy recommended when the pulp and nerves within a tooth are infected or damaged. If such a tooth were not treated in a timely manner, the infection and disease would lead to the tooth’s death and subsequent extraction.
Root canal therapy performed at our Pasadena, MD office preserves natural teeth by eliminating infected tissues, filling the space with medicated materials and sealing the tooth to ensure the tooth continues to function as it should.
