Save Your Tooth with Comfortable Root Canal Therapy at Espire Dental Loveland

Hearing the words “root canal” might make you feel anxious, but at Espire Dental Loveland, we’re here to assure you that root canal therapy is a safe, effective, and often painless procedure designed to save your natural tooth. If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain or sensitivity, a root canal may be the solution to stop the pain, eliminate infection, and restore your tooth’s health.

What Is the Purpose of a Root Canal Procedure?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage in the pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth) caused by decay, trauma, or cracks. During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. Root canals are a critical treatment for saving teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted.

Here’s how our Loveland patients are benefitting from root canal therapy:

Preserves Natural Tooth: A root canal can save your natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction and a dental implant or bridge.
Relieves Pain: Root canals remove the infected or inflamed tissue causing pain, providing immediate relief.
Prevents Further Infection: Root canals prevent the spread of bacteria by removing the source of infection and protecting the surrounding teeth and gums.
Restores Function: After a root canal, your tooth can function normally, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Is a root canal painful?

Contrary to popular belief, root canals are generally not painful. With modern anesthesia and techniques, most patients report feeling little to no discomfort during the procedure. In fact, root canals are performed to relieve the pain caused by infection or decay.

How long does a root canal take?

A typical root canal takes about 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the case. In some cases, it may require two appointments.

How long will my root canal last?

With proper care, a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy can last a lifetime. Regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene are vital to maintaining the health of the treated tooth.

Will I need a crown after my root canal?

A crown is often recommended after a root canal to protect and strengthen the tooth. The tooth can become weak and prone to cracking or breaking without a crown.

How do I care for my tooth after a root canal?

After your root canal, care for your treated tooth as you would any other tooth—by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and attending regular dental checkups. Avoid chewing hard foods on the treated tooth until your final restoration is complete.

How can I prevent needing a root canal?

Maintaining good oral hygiene is the best way to prevent the need for a root canal. Brush and floss daily and visit your dentist for regular cleanings and exams to catch cavities or infections before they reach the tooth’s pulp.
