Modern root canal therapy that relieves pain quickly and saves your natural tooth.
Comfortable, effective treatment to save an infected tooth and eliminate pain.
Root Canal Therapy at Woodbend Dental
Root canal therapy has an undeserved reputation. With modern anaesthesia and techniques, the procedure is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. More importantly, it's what saves your natural tooth when the inner pulp becomes infected or inflamed.
Left untreated, a tooth infection can spread to surrounding bone and tissue. Root canal therapy removes the infected pulp, cleans the root canals, and seals the tooth — eliminating the infection and the pain along with it.
At Woodbend Dental, we use rotary instruments and digital imaging to make root canal therapy as efficient and comfortable as possible.
