Root Canal Therapy Can Save Your Tooth

What Is Root Canal Therapy And Who Should Get It?

Root canal therapy (often called a root canal) is a common procedure at Dr. Sally Kashani DDS – Hollywood Dentist. A root canal can restore an infected tooth to its natural function and appearance. Contrary to popular belief, the process is typically no more painful than filling a cavity.

Dr. Kashani would suggest a root canal treatment if your cavity is deep enough to become infected and spread to the nerves in the root of your tooth. Left untreated, a cavity this deep can become an abscess and may even lead to bone loss in your jaw as well as other health problems. Dr. Kashani may also recommend a root canal for cracked or damaged teeth (where the tooth’s nerves are exposed).

A Root Canal Can Keep You Healthy

When Dr. Kashani performs a root canal, Her will clear your tooth’s roots of bacteria and infected tissue and then dry and seal them. Often, a crown is placed over your tooth for further protection. This can prevent infections from spreading to other areas and can help keep you and your smile healthy.

Nearly 16 million root canals are performed in the United States alone each year, and root canal therapy is one of the most common dental procedures here at Dr. Sally Kashani DDS – Hollywood Dentist. Don’t let root canal hearsay frighten you. Today, with safe and effective anesthesia, precise tools, and incredible imaging technology, a root canal doesn’t have to be painful — in fact, it relieves pain.
