Professional Root Canal tretments to preserve you teeth

At Gentle Dentle, we perform root canal treatments, which help prolong the life of you teeth. A root canal is performed when it is found that the nerve or pulp deep inside the tooth is infected. Also known as endodontic treatment, root canal treatment involves the removal of infected or dead  pulp. The old pulp is replaced by new dental pulp which prevents further infection. 

In order to get to the pulp a small opening is made in the tooth. The root canal treatment can be done using local anesthetic in 2-3 visits. 

After the treatment, the tooth is restored by capping or the use of crowns. Root canals are a great way to save a damaged tooth.
