Root Canals

Root canal is a procedure that is done to save a tooth by removing a damaged and infected root nerve.

If a tooth is not treated in time with a root canal, it will often have to be extracted.

Dr. Maya will make sure you are as comfortable as possible by administering local anesthesia so that you don’t feel a thing. 

Thanks to advances in modern technology, root canals have become routine, and the procedure is often painless.

Some causes for a root canal include a deep cavity, a cracked or broken tooth, or trauma. The procedure can often be done in one visit. 

The tooth will then need a new crown to help support the weak areas of the tooth and will provide many years of future strength and support.
