Understanding Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy removes infected or damaged pulp from your tooth, often called endodontic treatment. Soft pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. Infected or injured pulp can cause extreme pain and lead to abscesses or tooth loss if untreated.
When Might You Need a Root Canal?
- Severe Toothache
- Sensitivity to Hot or Cold
- Swelling or Tenderness in the Gums
- Discoloration of the Tooth
The Root Canal Procedure: Gentle & Effective
At Orchards Smiles Dental, we prioritize your comfort throughout the root canal procedure. Here’s what you can expect:
- Diagnosis & Anesthesia: We’ll conduct a thorough examination and take X-rays to confirm the need for root canal therapy. We’ll then administer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth, ensuring a pain-free experience.
- Pulp Removal & Cleaning: We’ll create a small access hole in your tooth and carefully remove the infected or damaged pulp. We’ll then thoroughly clean and disinfect the root canals inside the tooth.
- Filling & Sealing: The cleaned canals are filled with a biocompatible material and sealed to prevent reinfection.
- Restoration: In most cases, a crown is placed over the treated tooth to protect it and restore its full function and strength.

FAQs About Root Canal Treatment
With modern techniques and anesthesia, root canal therapy is typically no more painful than getting a filling.
The duration of the procedure varies depending on the complexity of your case and the number of roots involved. Most root canals can be completed in one or two visits.
In most cases, a crown is recommended after root canal therapy to protect the treated tooth and restore its full function and strength.
The only alternative to root canal therapy is tooth extraction. However, we always try to save your natural tooth whenever possible, as it’s the best option for your long-term oral health.
A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy can last a lifetime with proper care and a well-placed crown.
