How Dentists Perform Root Canal Treatment
Are you having tooth pain? Do you have a cavity that has not yet been filled? Do you have a tooth that is extremely sensitive to hot and cold? If so, then you may need root canal treatment.
Root canal treatment may sound scary, but it is a painless dental procedure that fixes a common, yet uncomfortable, tooth problem. AccuCare Dental Centers in Scottsdale helps Arizona patients regain and maintain their oral health through quick and painless root canal treatment so they can preserve their healthy teeth.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
When the nerve inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected, root canal treatment is usually the best course of action. These infections are usually the result of an untreated cavity or fracture, which allows bacteria in the mount to spread to the nerve.
Dentists prefer to save tooth and remove them only as a last resort. Root canal treatment is performed to preserve your natural teeth and clear your mouth of infections. A root canal treatment can be performed in under an hour and is minimally invasive.
How AccuCare Dental Center Performs Root Canals
Scared about getting a root canal? Don’t be. The team at AccuCare Dental Center works to keep you comfortable and pain-free in our office.
When you come in for a root canal, we numb the affected area with a local anesthetic. This ensures you don’t feel anything throughout the procedure. Next, we carefully make an opening in the top of the tooth until we reach the nerve. We then clear the infection. Once this is completed, we fill the nerve space with a biologically compatible material and then top that off with a strong, composite resin material or a crown that blends in with the color of your natural teeth. This ensures your tooth remains structurally intact.
