Does just hearing the phrase “root canal therapy” strike fear in you? Relax. It may not be a day at the beach, but at Best Care Family Dental, we use the most advanced techniques and tools to ensure that you're as comfortable as possible. In fact, it's fair to say that our
Jackson Heights root canal therapy is the solution to your pain, not the cause of it. Many patients these days report little or even no pain at all as part of the process.
Most commonly, root canal therapy is needed because of an infection in the pulp area of your tooth, which is caused by bacterial access form a decayed tooth, deep filling, or a tooth that is chipped or cracked. Facial trauma can also be the reason, such as when you sustain an injury. It's possible that you may not feel pain when you need root canal therapy, but it is typical to experience pain, often severe, when you try to chew with the tooth or apply pressure to it. You might also notice that it is sensitive to extreme hot or cold, such as with beverages. Tender gums or tooth discoloration could also be signs. If you have any of the above listed symptoms, call us right way to schedule our
Jackson Heights root canal therapy.
Before our dentist begins the procedure, you will receive local anesthesia to numb you. Access to the pulp is gained by drilling from the top of the tooth. The injured pulp, nerve, and any debris will be cleaned out and the area will be sealed. In most cases, our Jackson heights root canal therapy will require more than one session, so you will receive a temporary crown to protect the tooth between appointments. When the work is completed, you will be measured and fitted for a permanent crown.
Our
Jackson Heights root canal therapy represents not only relief from your pain, but usually the last and only option remaining to save your natural tooth rather than extract it. A tooth that has undergone successful root canal therapy will be strong and can usually be expected to last for a long time.
