Root Canal Treatment

The Optimal Root Canal Procedure in Orlando

ROOT CANAL TREATMENT

We offer root canal procedure in Orlando

Experiencing intense tooth pain? This may signal the need for root canal therapy. Tooth pain often indicates infection in the pulp of the tooth. To save and restore your tooth, schedule an appointment at Dentistry of Orlando, where we perform professional root canal treatment.

The procedure involves removing the infected nerves and pulp, then thoroughly cleaning the affected area. Root canal treatments are highly effective at relieving pain, restoring tooth health, and preventing further infection. Without treatment, the infection can spread from the root tip to surrounding areas, causing swelling and potentially leading to tooth loss.

Our root canal doctor is dedicated to expert, comfortable care. Our dentists are experienced in emergency pain control and ensure that root canal treatment procedures are as painless as possible. You can trust us to make the process smooth and worry-free.

TREATING ROOT CANAL INFECTION

We stop the pain and save the tooth

Don’t endure another night in pain. If you’re experiencing prolonged toothaches, sensitive pain, and extreme tooth decay, it’s time to see your dentist. At Dentistry of Orlando, we conduct dental examinations and x-ray to see if you have root canal infection which needs urgent treatment.

We commonly perform root canal on a front tooth and root canal with crown. Upon careful evaluation, we recommend root canal, or endodontic therapy for the following benefits:

Prevents tooth loss

Some dentists recommend tooth extraction right away, but not us. We offer root canal treatment as a permanent solution in preserving the natural arrangement of your teeth.

Prevents Infection of Other Teeth

By treating the root canal infection, we stop the spread of bacteria to its adjacent teeth. Otherwise, pulp infection will accumulate and affect neighboring teeth, causing tooth decay.

Improves teeth aesthetics

The root canal procedure doesn’t stop at removal of infected culp. It is followed by filling up the area with a polymer material or adding crowns to restore teeth visual appeal.

Prevents Jawbone Degeneration

Unlike tooth extraction, a root canal keeps your teeth intact. With missing teeth, jawbone degeneration progresses faster due to exposure to bacteria and other elements.

Boosts Overall Health

Root canal treatments preserve teeth and therefore help maintain good oral health. It also prevents heart disease, diabetes, respiratory infections, and gastrointestinal infections.

Painless Procedure

Root canal therapy is a virtually painless procedure and is often comfortable. We use advanced equipment in cleaning the infected pulp and keep the entire process safe.

HOW IT’S DONE

What does the root canal procedure involve?

Root Canal Treatment Preparation | Dentistry Of Orlando

Preparation & cleaning

The dentist starts by numbing the area. Once numbed, he then places a dental dam in the mouth to isolate the tooth for treatment. Next, he drills through the tooth to access the root canals and pulp chamber. The process uses antibacterial and antiseptic solution to eliminates bacteria and infection.

Shaping & filling

The next step is to shape the canal so your dentist can fill it up with gutta-percha. This material is placed inside the canal and cured to fit snug against the wall. He further adds an adhesive cement to seal the canals and access holes to keep the bacteria from entering the canal.

Healing & adding crown

Once the procedure is done, the patient is sent home with post-care instructions as well as a prescription for antibiotics and painkillers. If you choose to have a crown, you will need to come back for a second appointment to have it placed around the treated tooth.

MORE ABOUT ROOT CANAL THERAPY

Frequently asked questions

Is root canal treatment recommended if the tooth is not in pain?

Yes, you don’t have to wait until you experience severe pain to have your dentist perform a root canal treatment. If we see that your tooth is decayed, we may suggest root canal treatment to preserve it and prevent the decay from spreading to neighboring teeth.

How long does a root canal procedure take?

Root canal procedures are typically done in one visit and usually don't last longer than two hours. If infection is severe or if you choose to have a crown, it will take two visits to complete the procedure.

Will my insurance cover root canal treatment?

Yes, most dental insurance will cover the cost for root canal treatment. This treatment is considered a medical process for the benefit of your oral health. It is not considered a cosmetic dentistry procedure.
