When the inside of a tooth becomes inflamed or infected, root canal therapy can stop the pain, save the tooth, and restore your oral health. At Thacker Riverside Dental, we make your comfort a top priority by using modern techniques that are efficient, effective, and designed to keep you at ease every step of the way.
You may need a root canal if decay has reached the inner pulp of your tooth, or if a crack, chip, or past dental work has caused infection. Without treatment, this kind of infection can lead to swelling, sensitivity, or bone loss. Root canal therapy allows us to remove the damaged tissue, clean the inside of the tooth, and seal it to prevent future problems.
