Root Canal Therapy: Save Your Natural Tooth
If you have a severely decayed, infected, or damaged tooth, a root canal can provide relief while preserving your natural smile. At Bridge Dental Centre, we offer gentle and effective root canal therapy to eliminate pain, remove infection, and restore the health of your tooth.
What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a safe and common procedure used to treat infections inside the tooth. When the soft tissue (pulp) inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, injury, or deep fillings, a root canal is needed to prevent further damage or extraction.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
- Severe tooth pain when chewing or biting
- Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks
- Swollen or tender gums near the affected tooth
- Darkening of the tooth or visible damage
- Persistent or recurring pimple-like bump on the gums
The Root Canal Process
- Diagnosis & X-Rays – We assess the tooth and determine if a root canal is necessary.
- Removing the Infection – The infected pulp is carefully removed, and the inside of the tooth is disinfected.
- Filling & Sealing – The cleaned root canals are filled and sealed to prevent further infection.
- Final Restoration – A dental crown is often placed over the treated tooth for protection and long-term durability.
Benefits of a Root Canal
- Relieves pain and eliminates infection
- Prevents tooth loss and maintains natural function
- Protects surrounding teeth from further damage
- Restores your smile with long-lasting results
