Root Canal Therapy Treatment
Saving Your Tooth With Effective Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy (endodontics), is performed when the nerve supply of a tooth has been irreversibly damaged by decay or infection. At Minnesota Lakes Dental PLLC, we resolve your dental infection with a root canal to save a natural tooth from extraction.
Our root canal therapy treatment involves:
Cleaning and shaping each canal
Filling them with special inert material
Sealing to prevent any subsequent infection
After our root canal treatment, your tooth will be fully restored.
Why Do I Need a Root Canal?
Inside every tooth, there are single or multiple central chambers that contain connective tissue, a nerve supply, and blood vessels. Core tissue (known as dental pulp) helps your tooth to grow and mature before it emerges into your mouth. Root canal therapy is performed when the dental pulp is irreversibly damaged or has died.
