A ROOT CANAL essentially is a process of removing the nerves of a tooth which are infected and sealing the entire portion with an inert material. Once the infection is removed, the tooth can be restored.

“Root canal” may be two of the scariest words in the English language. It conjures up images of a long painful dental appointment. When I ask people if they know what a root canal is, the standard answer is “No, but I’ve heard it’s painful.” Well, good news. Today with our new technology, root canal treatment is painless and can be accomplished in only one visit. Please let us know if you have any further questions. *****
