The Root Canal Process

If nitrous oxide is a part of your treatment plan, then the first step will be placing the nasal mask over your nose so the effects can begin to set in. Otherwise, your appointment will begin with a local anesthetic, which will thoroughly numb the area of your mouth that our emergency dentist will be working on. Once you’re calm, comfortable, and ready to begin, they will access the inner chambers of your tooth to remove the diseased tissue and infected pulp. Before using a synthetic gutta-percha material to restore the missing structure, they will sanitize the area.

The final step is your restoration. First, we will place a temporary crown over your tooth to protect it while your permanent one is being made. The process typically takes a few weeks, but we will call you back in for your last appointment the moment it’s ready.

The Benefits of Getting a Root Canal

Root canal treatment comes with numerous benefits, not just one. For example, this restorative service can alleviate chronic tooth pain while simultaneously saving your tooth from needing to be extracted. Furthermore, the treatment process is completely painless, and the results can last for a lifetime. That’s why patients are often pleasantly surprised – it’s not the scary treatment its reputation makes it out to be!
