This dental solution is a form of urgent care for an abscessed tooth with infected, injured, or dead pulp in the root canal. Left untreated, an abscessed tooth can cause a serious infection to spread throughout the rest of the mouth and blood stream.
At Marlborough Dental Centre, our NE Calgary dentists have years of experience in performing root canals and our gentle approach and focus on your comfort will ensure you have a stress-free treatment.
Contact us now if you feel you require a root canal or any other dental procedure. If you are experiencing severe pain, which can often come with an untreated tooth abscess, we offer emergency dental care services so you can get back on track and feeling your optimal as soon as possible.
We know that root canal therapy sounds frightening, so our team of gentle and experienced Calgary dentists take extra precautions to make sure that you are as comfortable as possible throughout the procedure.
After giving you an anesthetic, Dr. Popp will begin by placing a special rubber dam around your tooth to keep it clean and free from saliva bacteria. He’ll make a small opening in the tooth and carefully extract the infected tooth pulp.
Once the tooth pulp is removed, the area is cleaned, your tooth canal is sealed, and a filling is inserted. In some cases, you may need additional restoration to your tooth, such as a dental crown.
The entire process is quick, with very little pain or discomfort. Most patients recover fully in less than one week.
You’ll feel a tremendous amount of relief once your abscessed tooth is treated. Root canal therapy helps you deal with an urgent dental problem and gets you back on track to maintaining good oral health.
