at Perry Dental & TMJ Center
Our Root Canal Services
When a tooth becomes severely infected or damaged, a root canal can help save it while relieving pain and restoring function. We provide gentle and effective root canal treatment to remove infection, protect your tooth, and prevent further complications. With advanced techniques and a patient-focused approach, we ensure a comfortable experience and long-lasting results.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside the tooth. The inner chamber is then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent reinfection. This treatment allows you to keep your natural tooth rather than extracting it.
Our Root Canal Process
Diagnosis & X-Rays
We examine your tooth and take X-rays to assess the extent of the infection.
Removing the Infection
A small opening is made in the tooth to remove the infected pulp and clean the root canals.
Sealing & Restoring the Tooth
Once cleaned, the tooth is sealed to prevent reinfection. A crown may be placed to restore strength and function.
