3 Reasons To Get A Root Canal

September 10, 2020

The pain of your toothache has become unbearable. You know you should visit the dentist, but you are anxious that you may need a root canal treatment. The truth is that you don’t need to worry about this procedure at our office Waco, TX.

It Will End Your Pain

Toothaches are the result of an infection. When bacteria reach the interior of a tooth, it can cause the soft tissue there to become inflamed. They can put pressure on the nerves inside the teeth. Removing that infected tissue will alleviate the source of your pain, so you can get some relief.

The Procedure Doesn’t Hurt

In the past, dental care wasn’t done as carefully as many people would have liked. Root canals in particular were something that many people feared. In modern dental practices, like Starr General Dentistry, we make patient comfort one of our top priorities. In addition to local anesthetic, we also offer dental sedation to keep you as pain-free as we can during your procedure. Many people have told us they didn’t feel a thing.

You Can Feel Like Yourself Again

To finish your treatment, we’ll fill and cap your tooth with a crown. This restores your smile and allows you to bite and chew naturally again.

If your teeth hurt, don’t take chances. Call 254-401-0129 or contact us online to request an appointment as soon as you can.
