Root Canal Treatment Allen
Eliminating the Cause of Your Dental Pain
Does the phrase “root canal” cause you to panic? If so, it’s time to set the record straight. This common procedure does not cause tooth pain; in fact, it eliminates it. When the pulp, which is the innermost layer of a tooth that consists of various nerves, becomes infected, it can cause significant pain that makes day-to-day living quite difficult. However, with root canal treatment in Allen at Downtown Dental, Dr. Randhawa can remove the infection (the pulp) and thus, eliminate the pain associated with it. Don’t fall victim to the myths and falsehoods associated with root canals but instead, call our office to let us help you be free of dental discomfort.

What Happens During a Root Canal?
Once you receive local anesthesia and sedation dentistry (if needed), your tooth will be isolated so that saliva and other fluids cannot interfere with the procedure. A small opening will be created in the crown of your tooth, and our team will begin to clear out any infected tissues as well as remove the pulp. After sanitizing the canals and inner chambers of your tooth, we will fill it with a biocompatible substance commonly referred to as gutta-percha. This will create a tight seal to prevent reinfection. Then, a customized dental crown will be crafted and placed over the vulnerable tooth just a few weeks after your procedure.
