Root Canals at New Age Dentistry

Root Canals

Generally caused by tooth decay or shock, pulp or nerve tissue damage can be an excruciating experience, with symptoms including pain while chewing, sensitivity and swelling. If left untreated, pulp damage can lead to abscesses, or pus-filled infections, and eventually to tooth loss.

Endodontics, or root canal therapy, is the branch of dentistry that deals with treating dental pulp damage and is the best way to directly address the pain and save the tooth. During a root canal procedure, infected nerve tissue is cleaned out and replaced with filler to prevent further infection. With proper anesthesia, root canal therapy can be a pain free process.

At New Age Dentistry, we have specialized training in root canal therapy and take every measure to ensure our patients' maximum comfort throughout the procedure. If you are experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity or swelling, it is important to act fast, not only to relieve your pain, but also to save the tooth from complete decay.

"Both my wife and I did not go to the dentist for some time because of "painful" experiences in the past. Problems with our teeth forced us to look elsewhere for dental care. We were SO fortunate to come to New Age Dentistry. The staff listens to our concerns, they genuinely care about their patients, and they are supportive and very helpful. If you are afraid of the "dental experience", please try out New Age Dentistry. Dr. Bourguignon and the entire staff are AWESOME!"
