Save Your Tooth with Gentle Root Canal Therapy
Root canals are a trusted solution for saving teeth that have become infected or severely decayed. During a root canal procedure, our skilled team at El Paso Family Dental carefully removes the infected tissue inside the tooth, cleans and disinfects the area, and fills it with a protective material to prevent further issues. A root canal not only saves your natural tooth but also relieves pain and restores the tooth’s function. With modern techniques, root canals are no longer the painful procedures they once were—they’re effective and comfortable.
Recommended for Patients with Deep Infections or Severe Tooth Pain
Root canal therapy is typically recommended for patients experiencing persistent tooth pain, sensitivity to hot and cold, or swelling around the affected tooth. Deep infections can often reach the pulp of the tooth, causing pain and compromising its integrity. Adults and teens who have developed advanced decay or have had previous dental trauma may require a root canal to save the tooth and alleviate discomfort.
Why Root Canals are Essential for Your Oral Health
- Prevents the need for tooth extraction, preserving your natural smile.
- Alleviates severe pain and sensitivity caused by infection.
- Protects neighboring teeth from infection by removing harmful bacteria.
- Restores the tooth’s function, allowing you to chew comfortably.
- Supports long-term oral health by eliminating the source of infection.
