Comfortable root canal care designed to remove infection, preserve your natural tooth, and protect your long-term oral health.

Root canal therapy is designed to treat the inside of the tooth while helping preserve your natural smile.
Root canal therapy treats and saves a badly decayed or infected tooth by removing damaged pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the tooth, then filling and sealing it.
With modern techniques and anesthesia, most patients feel little to no pain during the procedure. Any discomfort afterward can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
A typical root canal can take between 30 and 90 minutes depending on the tooth and the complexity of the case.
Follow the dentist’s instructions, avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the permanent restoration is complete, and maintain good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
