A root canal is a procedure to relieve pain and save a damaged or infected tooth. During a root canal, we clean out the infected tissue inside the tooth, disinfect the area, and seal it to prevent future infections. This procedure helps keep your natural tooth in place while stopping pain and preventing further issues.

If a tooth that has already had a root canal becomes painful or reinfected, a retreatment can help. In retreatment, we carefully reopen the tooth, remove any remaining infection, and reseal it to restore health and function. This is often done to extend the life of a previously treated tooth.

An apicoectomy, or "root-end surgery," is a minor procedure used when infection remains around the tip of a tooth’s root after a root canal. We remove the infected root tip and surrounding tissue, then seal the area to prevent further infection, helping you keep your natural tooth.

Dental emergencies, like severe pain, swelling, or injury, can happen anytime. We’re here to provide quick relief and assess the problem to prevent further complications. Whether it’s an unexpected toothache or trauma to a tooth, we prioritize emergency care to get you comfortable again.
