Root Canal Therapy Can Help You Preserve Your Smile

Root canal therapy is a procedure performed at Toothology in Toronto that can help save a significantly infected, damaged, or injured tooth. It involves cleaning out the inside of the tooth to remove decay and infection before filling the tooth with a special rubber-like material to help keep decay out in the future.

What’s involved with root canal therapy?

During the procedure, we’ll carefully examine and take X-rays of the affected tooth. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, ensuring that you remain comfortable throughout the process. Any damaged or infected tissue will then be removed before the tooth is filled with a specialized filling material. A filling or dental crown will then be placed to protect the tooth.

What are the benefits of this service?

Root canal therapy removes pain, infection, and inflammation from a significantly damaged or injured tooth. It also preserves the natural structure of your smile by keeping your tooth intact.

Who should consider root canal therapy?

Root canal therapy is likely to be an option for anyone who has a severe cavity, abscess, or dental injury that can’t be corrected with a filling, dental crown, or another type of restorative service.
