Root Canal Therapy -Getting to the “Root” of the Problem!
Most people have pre-conceived notions that a root canal is filled with pain and discomfort. In fact, root canal therapy doesn’t cause pain. It actually relieves it! Advances in dental technology have made root canal therapy virtually a pain-free experience.
When the inside, or pulp of a tooth becomes infected, you feel pain. Removing the pulp (blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue) inside your tooth will only affect your perception of hot and cold; the tooth can survive without the pulp.
Root Canal Therapy Relieves Tooth Pain And Saves Your Tooth!
Root canal therapy could save the life of your decayed or infected tooth. The procedure begins by administering a local anaesthetic to relieve tooth pain and discomfort. Cornell Dental Centre offers “The Wand” painless dental injections that make this dental treatment more comfortable than ever before!
