If you have a tooth that’s been feeling an inordinate amount of pain or sensitivity, you may need a root canal treatment. While root canals have a reputation for being very painful, many patients say that the procedure is far less painful and uncomfortable than the infection itself. After removing the infected pulp, your pain will finally be relieved and your tooth should not need to be extracted.

Dental professionals are the only people who can diagnose the need for a root canal, but there are some common signs that can suggest a root canal might be necessary. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, please make an appointment with us:
It should be noted that infections and tooth decay do not always have noticeable symptoms. This is why maintaining routine check-ups and dental cleanings is important. X-rays will reveal if an infection is present and the extent of it.
Understanding endodontics starts with understanding the anatomy of the tooth and tooth decay. The root canal process involves cleaning out the infected pulp from inside of the tooth before sterilizing and sealing it. The pulp can become infected any time a dental injury occurs, such as a cracked tooth or deep tooth decay from an untreated cavity. Pulp is made up of blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue, which is why bacteria and infections can spread rapidly and cause more serious issues. When a tooth is in pain, it’s important to make an appointment to see a dentist as soon as possible. At Dental Solutions of Avon, our root canal dentists can provide you with the gentle, expert care you need to restore your tooth and overall oral health.
