Relieve Pain and Save Your Teeth with a Root Canal
At Total Health Dental Care in Berkeley, CA, we specialize in providing expert root canal treatment to alleviate pain and preserve your natural teeth. If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain or have been told you need a root canal, our team is here to help.
What is a Root Canal?
A root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to treat an infected or damaged tooth pulp, which is the soft tissue inside the tooth containing nerves and blood vessels. During the procedure, the dentist removes the infected or dead pulp, cleans and disinfects the inner canals of the tooth, and then fills and seals them to prevent further infection. The tooth is often capped with a crown to restore its strength and function. Root canals help save a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.
Our Root Canal Process
Consultation and Diagnosis: Dr. Amanda will assess your tooth to confirm that a root canal is the best treatment option.
Treatment: The procedure typically takes one to two visits, during which the infected pulp is removed, and the tooth is cleaned and sealed.
Aftercare: Post-procedure, we will provide you with care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
