Root Canals

A root canal is sometimes necessary when trauma or a large cavity penetrates the inside of the tooth. The damaged tooth fills with bacteria, causing painful pressure within the tooth. During a root canal, the dentist cleans out the diseased canal and seals the tooth to prevent infection.

Root canal therapy is a conservative procedure that preserves your natural tooth. If left untreated, the tooth will eventually need to be extracted and replaced with a prosthetic. Saving your natural tooth is often the best option.

With modern tools and anesthesia, root canal therapy is more comfortable than ever before. In most cases, Dr. Lippian can perform a root canal in a single visit.
