If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain or sensitivity, you may need a root canal to save your tooth and relieve discomfort. At Ashley Mooney, DDS in Batavia, NY, we provide gentle and effective root canal therapy to treat infections and damage within the tooth. Our experienced team is committed to making your root canal treatment as comfortable and stress-free as possible, allowing you to restore your dental health and preserve your natural tooth.
A root canal is a dental procedure designed to remove infected or damaged tissue from the inside of your tooth. This tissue, known as the pulp, contains nerves and blood vessels that help nourish the tooth. When the pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma, it can lead to severe pain and, if left untreated, could result in tooth loss.
During a root canal, the infected pulp is carefully removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed. The tooth is then restored with a filling or crown, allowing it to function normally and remain in your mouth for many years.
