endodontics1If you experience any of these symptoms, your dentist will most likely recommend non-surgical root canal treatment to eliminate the diseased pulp. This injured pulp is removed and the root canal system is thoroughly cleaned and sealed. This therapy usually involves local anesthesia and may be completed in one to two visits depending on the treatment required. Success for this type of treatment occurs in about over 94% of cases. If your tooth is not amenable to endodontic treatment or the chance of success is unfavorable, you will be informed at the time of consultation. You will be able to drive home after your treatment, and you probably will be comfortable returning to your normal routine.
