Root Canal Treatment

Gentle Root Canal Treatment at Paroo Dental

At Paroo Dental, we understand that hearing the words “root canal” might make you feel a little uneasy. But rest assured, modern root canal therapy is a straightforward, effective, and comfortable procedure designed to save your tooth and relieve pain. Our compassionate team is here to guide you through the process with care and expertise, ensuring your experience is as smooth and stress-free as possible.

What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a procedure used to treat a tooth with infected or damaged pulp, which is the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, a crack, or trauma, it can lead to severe pain, swelling, or even tooth loss if left untreated.

​

Root canal therapy removes the damaged pulp, cleans and disinfects the inside of your tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection. With proper care, a tooth that has undergone a root canal can last a lifetime.

Why You Might Need a Root Canal

Signs that you may need a root canal include:

  • Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity to hot and cold.

  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the affected tooth.

  • A darkened or discolored tooth.

  • A small bump (abscess) on the gums.

​

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek care promptly to prevent the issue from worsening.

What to Expect During a Root Canal at Paroo Dental

We know the thought of a root canal can be intimidating, but at Paroo Dental, we’re dedicated to making your experience comfortable and stress-free.

  • Before the Procedure:

    • Dr. Paroo will thoroughly examine your tooth and take X-rays to assess the extent of the infection.

    • We’ll discuss the procedure with you, answer any questions, and ensure you’re fully informed and at ease.

  • During the Procedure:

    • The area around your tooth will be numbed to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the process.

    • Using precise techniques, we’ll remove the infected pulp, clean the root canals, and shape them for filling.

    • The canals will then be sealed to protect against further infection.

  • After the Procedure:

    • You may experience mild sensitivity for a few days, which is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

    • In most cases, a crown is placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength and appearance.
