Root Canal Therapy
At Soni Dentistry, we provide safe and effective root canal therapy to save teeth that have been damaged by decay, fractures, or infection. Our goal is to relieve pain, restore function, and preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, helping you maintain a healthy, confident smile.
When Root Canal Therapy Is Needed
Root canal therapy may be necessary when the nerve (pulp) inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to:
- Deep decay reaching the tooth’s pulp
- A cracked or fractured tooth
- Advanced gum disease affecting the root
- Persistent pain or throbbing while biting
- Sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures
- Infection or abscess formation
If left untreated, these conditions can lead to severe pain, swelling, and potential tooth loss. Root canal therapy allows your dentist to save the tooth while eliminating discomfort and preventing further damage.
The Root Canal Procedure
During a root canal, your dentist removes the diseased or infected pulp from inside the tooth and replaces it with an inert, biocompatible material. This restores the tooth’s function and prevents further infection.
Thanks to modern dental technology, most root canal procedures can be completed in a single visit, minimizing your time in the dental chair and reducing stress.
After the root canal, your dentist will recommend the appropriate restoration to strengthen and protect the tooth. This often involves placing a dental crown, which ensures the treated tooth continues to function and feel like a natural tooth for many years.
