What is a Root Canal?
Over 14 million root canals are performed each year.

A root canal is a procedure designed to remove infected or damaged pulp from the inside of your tooth. When tooth decay or trauma affects the inner pulp, it can lead to severe pain, swelling, or even tooth loss. Our goal is to preserve your natural tooth and alleviate your discomfort.
Signs You Might Need a Root Canal
If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, it’s essential to seek professional care:
- Severe toothache when chewing or biting
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swollen or tender gums around the tooth
- Darkening of the tooth
- Pimples on the gums
