Dr. Robyn Waring and our team provide gentle and effective root canal therapy in Houston, Texas, to preserve your natural teeth and restore your oral health. If you are experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity or swelling, root canal therapy may be the best solution to eliminate infection and save your smile.
What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy is a procedure that treats infection inside a tooth. When the pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels) becomes infected or inflamed, a root canal removes the damaged tissue, cleans the inside of the tooth and seals it to prevent further problems.
Benefits of root canal therapy include:
- Pain relief: Eliminates the source of infection and discomfort.
- Tooth preservation: Saves your natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction.
- Restored function: Allows you to chew, speak and smile with confidence.
- Aesthetic results: Maintains the appearance of your natural smile.
We perform root canal therapy with a focus on comfort and precision, using modern techniques to ensure a smooth and successful treatment.
Compassionate, Patient-Focused Care
Our dentist and caring team understand that the idea of a root canal can cause anxiety. However, root canal therapy today is very different from the past. Thanks to advancements in dental technology and anesthesia, the procedure is typically no more uncomfortable than receiving a standard dental filling.
Our goal is to make the process as stress-free as possible. During your visit, we will explain each step of the procedure, answer your questions and ensure that you feel calm and supported throughout your care. After treatment, a custom restoration, such as a dental crown, may be placed to strengthen and protect your tooth.
At Whole Health Dentistry, we proudly provide our dental services to ensure every patient feels understood and valued. If you are experiencing signs of a tooth infection, do not wait to seek care.
