The Root Canal Process

Animated inside of a tooth used to explain root canal therapy process

While root canals have gotten a bad reputation for being painful, most people experience significant relief once the treatment is complete. The process typically takes two appointments to complete.

During the initial appointment with our emergency dentist, one of our dentists drills an access hole to the pulp layer of the tooth. Then, we remove the infected pulp and nerve tissue and refill it with a biocompatible substance. Then, we recommend the placement of a dental crown.
