What Is Root Canal Therapy?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat the inside of a tooth when the pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels) becomes infected or irreversibly damaged. Common signs that you may need a root canal include:
  • Persistent or throbbing tooth pain
  • Swelling or tenderness near the gums
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Tooth discoloration
  • A bump or abscess on the gums
Sometimes, pain can persist after a filling or other treatment, another indicator that root canal therapy may be necessary.

Our Root Canal Procedure

We make root canal therapy as simple and comfortable as possible. Here’s what to expect during your visit:
Diagnosis and X-rays
We take digital images to assess the health of the tooth and confirm whether root canal therapy is the right solution.
Pulp Removal
After applying local anesthesia, the infected or damaged pulp tissue is carefully removed from inside the tooth.
Cleaning and Shaping
The canals are thoroughly cleaned and shaped to eliminate bacteria and prepare for the filling.
Filling and Sealing
A biocompatible material is placed inside the cleaned canal to prevent further infection.
Temporary or Permanent Restoration
Depending on the extent of damage, a custom dental crown may be recommended to restore the tooth’s strength and protect it long-term.
Most root canals can be completed in a single visit. For complex cases, we may refer you to a trusted local endodontic specialist for additional care.

Why Choose Root Canal Treatment?

Preserving your natural tooth with a root canal in Las Vegas is often the best option for long-term oral health. Here’s why:
  • Immediate relief from pain and infection
  • Avoids tooth loss and more complex restorations
  • Preserves your natural bite, alignment, and facial structure
  • Often more affordable than replacing a tooth with an implant or bridge
After treatment, placing a crown over the tooth helps protect it and ensures long-lasting function and aesthetics.

What Happens If You Don’t Get a Root Canal?

Ignoring the signs of a tooth infection can lead to serious complications, such as:
  • Worsening infection
  • Tooth loss
  • Spread of infection to other parts of the body
  • Need for more extensive (and expensive) dental treatments like implants, bridges, or dentures
Addressing the issue early with root canal therapy can save you time, money, and discomfort in the long run.
