The Root Canal Procedure

The root canal treatment begins with us numbing your mouth and administering an additional sedative if needed. A dam is placed around the tooth so that your saliva doesn’t get in the way of the treatment. Then, the tooth is open so that the pulp inside can be removed along with all the harmful bacteria that has made its way into the root canal chamber. Before we reseal the tooth, we’ll make sure that the space inside the tooth has been cleaned as thoroughly as possible.
