What Is a Root Canal?

Inside every adult tooth is a small amount of tooth pulp. When teeth are young and growing, this pulp is important; adult teeth, however, no longer need it.

It’s fairly common for this tooth pulp to become infected, especially after the exterior of a tooth is cracked or damaged. When the pulp suffers an infection, a root canal can often solve the problem and alleviate your toothache.

The root canal process generally goes as follows:

  • Consultation: Meet with us at one of our two office locations in Denver or in Lone Tree, CO, to determine the cause of your tooth pain and whether a root canal is right for you. We can also discuss how to keep you comfortable during your root canal procedure with sedation dentistry options.
  • Infection Removal: At your appointment, your Denver dentist will carefully remove the infected pulp from the damaged tooth.
  • Inner Tooth Cleaning: Once the pulp is gone, your dentist will sterilize the empty space left behind and pack it with a biocompatible material to prevent any further infection.
  • Tooth Protection: If necessary, we may recommend a dental crown to strengthen your tooth and protect it from further infection.
  • Healing and Smiling: You can go home and enjoy eating, smiling, and speaking without pain!

Benefits of Root Canals in Lone Tree, CO

Root canals will not only get rid of tooth pain, but can also improve your chewing ability and the appearance of your smile.

A tooth infection can discolor your tooth. Successful root canal procedures can result in a better-looking tooth once the infection is completely cleared out. An infected tooth is incredibly painful, which makes chewing a nightmare. Once we clear out the infection, you can chew comfortably again as you enjoy your favorite foods.

By banishing the swelling, discoloration, and pain that come with a tooth infection, you’ll look better and experience more comfortable meals.

Relief from severe tooth pain is an incredible benefit, but there is another excellent reason to undergo a root canal procedure. We can save your tooth!

Infected teeth often need to be extracted, which has a negative impact on your oral health. We try to save your teeth whenever we can to save you from the harmful effects of tooth loss, and this procedure is a great way to do so!
