Root Canal Therapy in Reno, NV

Hearing that you need a root canal is not most patients favorite news. While root canal therapy is a common dental procedure to eliminate infections in the teeth, it continues to have a negative connotation in patients’ minds. However, patients can rest easy knowing our dentist offers the most comfortable, efficient root canal experience possible.

What is root canal therapy?

Root canal therapy is a procedure where a dentist removes bad bacteria from the pulp of a tooth. The pulp is made up of nerves, connective tissue, and blood vessels that help the tooth grow. When bacteria forms inside of the tooth pulp, it can cause pain and infection that leads to many issues with the tooth. Bacteria can collect for many reasons, but mainly is the result of poor dental health. This can also happen if a cracked tooth is left untreated and bacteria has entered to attack the tooth from the inside out. An untreated infection inside of a tooth makes it painful, discolored and could eventually lead to the loss of that tooth. This is when a root canal is needed to fix the problem. In the majority of cases, a general dentist or endodontist will perform a root canal while you’re under local anesthesia.

After root canal therapy is completed, you will have a better chance of preserving the original tooth. In some cases, you may need to have a crown placed on top of the affected tooth to cover up any imperfections or discoloration.
