At Greater Endodontics, we have a complete team of professional specialists in saving teeth that offer Utah root canal procedures that are quick, painless and anxiety-free - you don’t have to worry about a thing! We know that the idea of dental surgery is a scary thought, so we’ve laid out all the information about root canal procedures. You can rest easy knowing that Greater Endodontics is your best choice for Utah root canal procedures.
What Is A Root Canal?
Root canals are a dental procedure that targets infected or inflamed pulp in the teeth. The pulp inside of a tooth contains blood vessels and nerves that help grow the roots. Fully developed teeth can survive without the pulp because they are nourished by surrounding tissues. But sometimes the pulp becomes infected or inflamed which can lead to needing a root canal procedure. A root canal specialist removes the inflamed or infected pulp inside the tooth, which in turn restores and saves the natural tooth, preventing further decay.
Why is a Root Canal Necessary?
A root canal becomes necessary when the inner pulp and dentin, located inside your tooth, becomes infected. The infection can be serious and rather painful, so left untreated, the infection can spread further (even to other teeth) causing severe pain and other medical issues. It’s better to have a root canal than to extract the infected tooth. Why? Because no amount of dentures, implants or bridges will feel, look or work as well as your natural tooth.
Do Root Canals Hurt?
Root canal treatment is virtually painless with GentleWave technology. Most dental surgeries will leave your mouth and affected area sore for some time, anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Before and after your root canal procedure, our root canal specialists will go over the necessary steps to follow to better facilitate your healing and recovery process. The GentleWave technology will leave you with less discomfort during recovery than if you have your natural tooth extracted.
Should I Wait Before Getting a Root Canal?
Chronic tooth pain, sensitivity to heat or cold, swelling around one particular tooth or a pimple/bump on gums or below the tooth could indicate an infection or condition that requires root canal treatment. Don’t delay visiting the dentist or a specialist if you’re experiencing any of the above symptoms.
It’s important to have any dental problem checked out, even if that means having a root canal treatment. If the affected tooth is left untreated for a long period of time, it can lead to an abscess that can spread to the jaw and surrounding teeth, tooth loss or more severe problems.
Are Root Canals Expensive?
If you’re worried about the cost of a dental procedure, we understand. At Greater Endodontics we offer competitive pricing. We encourage you to meet with any of our root canal specialists to get a better idea of what your situation is and what our pricing is more accurately. We accept several different forms of dental insurance plans as well as payment plans through Care Credit.
