Root canal treatment is a restorative procedure designed to save a tooth with damaged or infected pulp. The pulp, located in the center of the tooth, contains nerves and blood vessels. When it becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, trauma, or cracks, it can cause intense pain and swelling. A root canal removes the infected tissue, cleans and disinfects the root canals, and seals the tooth to prevent further issues.

At Amazon Creek Dental, we prioritize your comfort throughout every step of the process:
A root canal not only alleviates pain but also preserves your natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction and replacement. By saving the tooth, you maintain proper chewing function, alignment, and appearance. Root canals are a highly effective way to protect your oral health and avoid more extensive treatments in the future.
Many people associate root canals with discomfort, but advancements in modern dentistry have made the procedure much less invasive. Our team uses the latest technology and techniques to make the experience as smooth and painless as possible. We’ll guide you through every step, addressing any concerns and ensuring you feel at ease.
Following your root canal, mild discomfort is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you recover quickly and maintain your restored tooth. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene will keep your smile healthy and strong.
