01
Root canal therapy
Preserve an inflamed or infected tooth.
Root canal therapy removes diseased pulp tissue from inside a tooth, helping address infection and discomfort while allowing the natural tooth to remain in place.
Endodontic treatments
Relieve pain. Preserve your tooth.
Endodontic treatment addresses inflammation or infection inside a tooth. Our specialists diagnose the source and recommend the most appropriate path forward.
Understanding treatment
What is root canal therapy?
Inside each tooth root is a canal containing pulp: nerves, blood vessels, and soft tissue. Root canal treatment may be needed when this pulp becomes inflamed or infected.
To preserve the tooth, the diseased pulpal tissue is removed and the inside of the tooth is carefully treated.
