At ME Dental Spa, we understand that dental issues can be painful and uncomfortable. Our dedicated team of dental professionals is here to provide you with the highest quality root canal treatment, ensuring your comfort and oral health. Read on to learn more about root canals and how we can help you regain your beautiful smile.
A root canal, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure designed to treat and save a tooth that is infected, damaged, decayed and/or causing you pain. Inside each tooth is a pulp chamber containing nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed, it can cause severe pain and, if left untreated, may lead to the loss of the tooth.
At ME Dental Spa we take pride in offering exceptional root canal treatment services.

You may require a root canal if you experience the following symptoms:
Diagnosis: We start with a thorough examination that involves testing the tooth and may use digital X-rays to pinpoint the source of the infection or damage.
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you're comfortable during the procedure.
Cleaning and Shaping: We access the pulp chamber, remove the infected tissue, and clean and shape the root canals.
Filling: Once the canals are cleaned and disinfected, they are filled with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha to seal the tooth.
Restoration: In most cases, a crown is placed on the treated tooth to restore its strength and appearance. This is important so the tooth doesn’t crack and fracture.
Aftercare and Recovery: We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. It's essential to follow these guidelines to maintain the success of your root canal treatment. Usually, there is minimal to no discomfort or post operative pain.
