Root Canals
When the pulp within a tooth is irreparably damaged, the tooth can die and pose a risk of infection. However, sometimes a tooth with damaged pulp can be saved by a root canal treatment. Dr. Courtney and Dr. Wolt believe in conservative dentistry, so when possible, they will suggest keeping your natural teeth intact. A root canal treatment allows you to keep your original tooth, even after its sustained internal damage.
Modern anesthesia and technology has made endodontic procedures, like root canal treatment, more comfortable than ever. During the procedure, the dentist cleans out the bacteria from inside the tooth and seals it to prevent re-infection. A tooth that has received root canal treatment will need to be topped with an aesthetic crown to restore strength and endurance. If you have been told that you need a root canal, or if you experience extreme pain in a tooth and are unsure of the cause, you can trust Dr. Courtney and Dr. Wolt to deliver exceptional care.
