Endodontic Treatment in North York
Endodontic Treatment
Most people have preconceived notions that endodontic treatment, also known as root canal therapy, is painful. The better way to look at it is to think of all the relief root canal North York services will provide. Unfortunately, the pain associated with an infected tooth root can be overwhelming at times.
Our Bayview Village specialist is always prepared to help relieve this pain by treating the infected tooth pulp through expert endodontic treatment.
Endodontic treatment is usually performed under local anaesthesia and involves creating a small opening on the chewing surface of the tooth to gain access to the infected tissue.
Whether you are seeking a root canal North York for pain relief or to save a damaged tooth, the process involves removing the tooth’s pulp, consisting of blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. The tooth is then cleaned, filled, and sealed with an adhesive cement to prevent future infection. Finally, a dental crown is placed to prevent fractures and restore the tooth to its original shape and function.
