A Root Canal is necessary when a cavity forms within the center of the tooth, where the nerve is. When treatment options such as a filling or crown are not sufficient, Family and Cosmetic Dentistry will perform a root canal.

Most people will experience symptoms that should alert you to come see our team. These symptoms can include:

• Severe pain in your tooth
• Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
• Swollen or tender gums
• Discoloration of the tooth

A root canal procedure is similar to a routine filling and can usually be completed in one or two visits. Having a root canal procedure is a relatively painless process and extremely effective in restoring the health of your tooth.
