What Is Root Canal Therapy?

Millions of Americans undergo one or more root canal therapy procedures each year. That’s because your teeth are easily infected with harmful bacteria. When one or more of your teeth become infected with these bacteria, the inner pulp of your tooth can inflame. This inflammation can result in irritation, soreness, pain, and sensitivity. To cure the infection, Dr. Shapiro can perform a root canal therapy procedure. During the procedure, he will clean out the infected pulp, reshape the root canals, and fill them in with a rubber and sealant, so that they cannot become re-infected. The root canal therapy procedure will eliminate infection, and the associated pain and sensitivity for good.

Will Root Canal Therapy Hurt?

Dr. Shapiro will ensure that you’re completely calm and comfortable throughout the root canal therapy procedure. He will also make sure that you have the general anesthesia necessary to block any pain and sensitivity until the procedure is completed. Dr. Shapiro wants all of his patients to stay pain free. That’s why he encourages you to visit him regularly for routine dental checkups. If you can do this, he can catch and stop infections before they cause you any pain or discomfort. But if you are in need of immediate pain relief, Dr. Shapiro is always here to help.
