ROOT CANAL TREATMENT
Save Your Natural Tooth and Relieve Pain
At Burbank Implant and Cosmetic Dentistry, our root canal treatments are designed to stop pain, eliminate infection, and preserve your natural tooth whenever possible. A root canal becomes necessary when deep decay or trauma reaches the inner pulp of the tooth, causing inflammation, infection, and discomfort.
Using advanced techniques and a gentle approach, we make the process comfortable and efficient. Our goal is to help you keep your natural tooth healthy and functional for years to come.
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or damaged tissue from inside the tooth. After cleaning and disinfecting the area, the root canals are filled and sealed to prevent future infection. This restores strength and allows the tooth to function normally again. Most root canal-treated teeth are later protected with a crown for added durability and longevity.
The root canal process includes:
- Numbing the area for a comfortable experience
- Removing infected pulp from the root canals
- Cleaning and disinfecting the inner tooth
- Sealing the canals to prevent reinfection
- Placing a temporary or permanent restoration
Most root canal treatments are completed in 1 to 2 visits. With proper care, a treated tooth can last a lifetime.
Why Root Canal Treatment Matters
Root canal treatment helps you avoid tooth loss and the need for extraction. Preserving your natural tooth helps maintain jawbone health, prevents teeth from shifting, and protects your bite.
Tooth loss can lead to functional issues, bone deterioration, and cosmetic concerns. By saving the natural tooth, you avoid these complications and the cost of more complex treatments like implants or bridges.
