Root Canal for your Tooth!

Root Canal

Root Canal Therapy – Magnolia, TX

What Is A Root Canal?

A root canal is usually referred to as the dental method used to relieve pain or remove infected material from the inner passages between the roots and pulp of a tooth. It usually involves eliminating the impaired area, disinfecting, cleaning, and sealing after. Adult teeth have a very significant job sensing cold, heat, and other incentives. Root canal soreness can be very painful and tender because it contains several blood vessels and nerves. In certain cases, a specialist in endodontics is necessary. At our office, our staff can determine what would be the best approach.

Get in touch with us today at (936) 241-4634 and find out whether you are the right candidate for Root Canal Treatment at FLOSS Dental - Dentist Magnolia, TX.

Generally, Pain In A Root Canal Is Triggered By:

If severe canal problems go untreated, it can possibly cause infection within the tooth pulp causing major trauma to the teeth. However, not all tooth pain is considered for a root canal procedure. After an appointment at our office, we can recommend that you have a root canal completed or send you to an endodontist if no other alternative can be made.

Decay: Chips or cracks in a tooth that can possibly cause tooth decay or root canal pain.

Damage: If tooth decay enters the outer layers of a tooth it can cause severe discomfort in the root canals.

Disease: When a patient needs frequent dental procedures in the same region it can cause deep tooth decay and ultimately cause pain within the root canal.
